Bump.

All gone now except the 100-300 zooom. I’m hoping to raise the money for a Canon 50mm 1.4!!

Hi depends on your camera and what you’re shooting. If your camera’s a 1.6 crop dslr and you want to shoot landscapes, then the 17-40’s a great lens.

For a bit more money how about a 24-70 f2.8L, a good bit extra at the long end, an extra stop of light and you could save most of the extra cash by buying a 50mm f1.8 instead of the 1.4; it’s a lovely lens and cheap as chips.

I’m not advising you what do do but it’s something I’d think about, but then I never do landscapes so what do I know!!

Thanks, in the camera. Distance about 40m exif 1/400 sec f5.6 Focal length 300mm AP iso 800. No Cropping. That’s the lowest aperture at that focal length on this lens so it was the long focal length that gave the DOF. Manual focus had to be quick, but I was lucky how it turned out. Plenty of duds too :-)

I liked the original crop better too, and I thought the girl’s hair looked better in the original as well. It’s a very sexy shot, works well

I tried desaturating it generally, I think the grass is a better colour now. Not sure if the blue’s gone though, I’m no photshop wiz and laptop screen not ideal for photo editing either.

Any tips welcome.

Thanks for the comments, I’ll see if I can improve the colour. I didn’t get that close it was shot at 300mm on Canon 350D equivalent to 480mm full-size sensor!

Noely, just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they’re NOT out to get you!
