I wish I had more to contribute. Still enjoying everyone else's stuff, though.

cant BELIEVE the wheel is stalled on a CAT photo. you guys have got to be kidding me that you dont have any cat photos
― max, Thursday, 2 May 2013 23:11 (ten years ago) link
near half my photo library is cat photos, tbqf
the rest is split between snaps of my gf and airplane window shots
― Millsner, Friday, 3 May 2013 01:18 (ten years ago) link
I did have some cat photos but none had the feel of that shot and I was wondering whether I was being a bit overliteral in my selections (like "I've been there!" "I have one of those!").

I'm in the pub and just wanted to point out I have a photo ideal to follow william c's wing mirror but because i'm using my phone and won't be home til Sunday I won't get a chance to add. The wheel must keep spinning!

What a terrific sequence! I knew we wouldn't be stuck on my solo dancer + Elvis's dad shot for long...
Apols for the HTML screw-up; forgot that, although Flickr offers code for a 640px version of a very old scan, it doesn't actually exist until you "create" it by going through All Sizes (it pre-dates Flickr routinely creating that size for new uploads by several years). Only 500px is available for very old pix.
Testing...http://farm1.staticflickr.com/49/128124060_a60d089c1f_z.jpg%3Fzz%3D1
― Michael Jones, Saturday, 11 May 2013 12:07 (ten years ago) link
Ah, no, even that doesn't work.
Memo to self: don't select 640px for old pics.

like i think the 50 1.8 outperforms the 1.4 and the 1.2 throughout 2-4 or 2-5.6, though it evens out by the time you get to smaller apertures? could be wrong
― 乒乓, Sunday, 26 May 2013 11:43 (ten years ago) link
Yeah, the 50/1.8 is really good and it's hard to justify the extra cost of the 1.4 beyond build and silent focusing. I don't think there's much difference in image quality.
85/1.8 gets rave notices. I've borrowed the 100/2.0 before and that's marvellously sharp. The non-L primes are the best value Canons, I think. I love my 28/1.8 but I've always used it on a crop-sensor, so it's basically a normal lens. It would be a very different thing on a FF.
