f/4 does not work very well under low light condition. I have an 85L f/1.2 which works really well under low light. You can get a regular 85mm f/1.8 which also works well under low light situation for 1/5 of the price.


Or you can alway bracket your exposure under different aperatures to learn how your lens works under a certain lighting situation.

DOF and lowlight you have to compromise somewhere. As for your subject, it's not too close so I dont think you will have much brokeh....

original file is huge, i had to resize it and all. Send it to u tomm, luôn tiện fix mấy tấm hình sexy của tui bị tối luôn nha Fall is almost over here too, getting colder. So dreadful . Take some black and white pictures and let me see .

Dustie, I think the 2 styles are different. You're talking about portraiture. In landscape, one wants everything from foreground to the background to be in focus. At any rate, even with a good lens, the problem remains the same. There are a few strong lights on an otherwise dark surrounding, as well as brick walls which fall in the middle part of the intensity scale. [I think I've tried pushing 4 stops with exposure and still didn't get the light to dim, so exposure bracketing didn't help here]. And, the DoF of telephoto lenses is very thin wide-open, even at large distance (that's how they can produce the nice bokeh that they're known for), so one would lose the sharpness of the foreground elements.

Another thing is that the wide-angle lens and telephoto lens will create different perspectives to the photo. I tried the same scene with at 75mm, very different.

P, để hôm nào tui kiếm mấy tấm hinh xấu xấu rồi do B&W conversion. lol... only do that to make a bad photo look good.

Dangtri chick ,

I think you can apply the "Zone system" in CS4 to light up the sky and define the clouds in pic #1, and it would be nicer

Sag macho man, any tip besides using $400 software?

Dangtri chick


What that kind of pic .......... do it with a slow speed as possible.

Typical macho man. You didn't read a word in the discussion above?

You think I spend times to read every line like a woman


You asked for the tip I read your reply and gave out ...... honey, I pay attention at you only, em

Not only every line. Don't you know you should read between the lines as well?

Dangtri honey


Em drop that line di cungie.......... because...

Name calling = being emotional = inferior species


Sorry honey nhen

Sag-man, if you ain't got what it takes to handle me, you're welcome to go somewhere else.

Faithie, why would I want to get out of this girl suit since you like women more than men?

I take photos for my own pleasure. Lâu lâu đem ra khoe chơi. Ai thích thì coi, không thích thì thôi.

Many reasons: 1) I saw someone did an amazing HDR of the same building (with the moon over it and all, probablly summer sky). So I thought I should give it a try. I'm not doing it the same way she did. It was difficult, I have much to learn. 2) want to record the landmark around campus.

Muốn coi hình nữa không?

Tam nho? nao`?

Chút lá mùa thu... cho ai?

Chấm hết.

Ne`, that's her pic. http://www.flickr.com/photos/1083261...7601827078600/ Not an HDR, but her sky is more interesting since it got a moon. Not sure whether that was photoshoped in.

You need a somewhat decent camera, and a tripod, and some patience. Then you need to learn a bit about depth of field. And just go out and shoot.

One last look at the summer:

Yeah, she's pretty good at both taking photos and processing with Photoshop. She & her bf have a studio now.

You probably scared the bee away.
