Just my 2cents here

Try it at f4.5 or so and your image will be a lot sharper. Seems too soft at near f18.

otherwise great picture

Been lazy lately with taking photos.. Will post up some soon!!

Eypon - how you finding the 50mm lens? Is it as sharp as everyone says it is? let me know coz im thinking of buying one

for $150 its awesome lol. (ive spent more on a night out on the town)

and its kinda loud when focusing. (but thats cos its not a USM focus you can spend like $600-$1000 for a better one hehe)

Mind you i would like a macro lens to get the detail that Sl!m is getting (im guessing its a macro lens cos my 50mm cant focus that close)

But other then that i love the little lens. its awesome for portraits cos of the DOF with a f/1.8

anyways happy shooting

[Sl!m]

yeah EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM. Only got it two days ago so those were the first couple shots I took with it.

[Granthem]

Just been playing around with the shutter speeds, aperture etc
