New Lens - Test Drive

[AllieMackie]

So I got my newest lens for Christmas, the Canon 50mm f/1.8. Nice little lens, I'm loving it. Here's a few of Finn outside this morning.

few more...

These ones are inside, last night. Some of June as well. Definitely need to get used to indoor settings, but it's a start.

This group was all taken in my rec room, which has the dimmest light in the house. LOVING this lens.

Awesome, awesome job!!! Finn's eyes are WICKED awesome, especially in that first pic! Great pictures, the indoor ones are SWEET!

The indoor shots look awesome! One trick that helped me get the right color inside was to change my light setting from auto to the type of light (all flourescent for our house).

I'm getting out in a second and going to take some more shots. Low light rocks!

Oh man, so jealous of everybody and their 1.8s, LOL.

Love this lens! Finn's eyes are positively luminescent!

 

[AllieMackie]

Thanks everyone!

Lizmo, yeah, I usually do auto light, but I've been changing to Tungsten for the rec room, fluorescent for everywhere else (we have compact fluorescents in the rec room but they're those fake-warm ones, haha). My biggest thing now is fiddling with my new ridiculous f-stop levels and making the shutter speed work in balance with it. It's fun practicing in the meantime

Beanie, if you can put aside $100 for it, it's seriously an awesome little inexpensive lens, I HIGHLY recommend it!

I love it! I've so been wanting to get this lens and I think you sold me.

 

[Sit Stay]

Fantastic pictures! I think I finally decided on that lens (well, the Nikkor one) for my next, so I'm glad to hear that you like it.

Okay, who's willing to give their DSLR cameras and awesome lenses to me?

Great pics, Allie. I LOVE Finns eyes.
