Post your daily ZHP/BMW/MINI pics!

The Nikkor 50/1.8 is the best lens money can buy. Nikon's f/1.8 glass is so sharp it makes the f/1.4 stuff a total waste of money (opposite is true for Canon).

I have a rather extensive background in photography, and I'm a total snob about full frame and prime lenses

I know right? The images from the 1.8 are unbelievably sharp. I mean for about $200 it's the best lens you can buy as you said.
I did think about getting a full frame next but decided to get D7300 (yes Nikon I'm waiting!) or a D500 (if I get a good deal) because I think the prices of the full frame lens are hard for me to justify... I wish all of them were as cheap as he 50mm lol

To my eyes the first and last photos look like they've been over edited a little. I could be wrong but seems like you moved the temperature gradient quite a bit towards the warner side. But it's all subjective

I can see what you're saying, I'll get back to editing lol, the temperature of the picture doesn't match the edit

Damn, is it that expensive now? I paid $75 with employee pricing back around 2006.

I've had a D700 since about 2 months before they were released. D50, D70s, D90 before, and I could never go back to a DX sensor.

Since we're on equipment here's a picture of the a6000 with the adapter and Minolta lens


I didn't want to spend too much on newer lenses since I don't shoot often enough to justify the cost. I've done some test shots including the interior shots. Can't complain for the price. Though since my camera is APS-C, I'm missing a bit of usability. The choices below 50mm get slimmer and $$$ for the legacy lenses.

AF-S is about $200
AF is about half of that

Which one is yours? If you have the AF-S than that's some steep inflation lol

What are your thought on D500?

Oh mine is definitely AF-D. The AF-S 50 didn't exist at that time. D5k is a great camera and you can get a great deal on one it seems; just remember the glass in front of the sensor is just as, if not more, important.

i need to take this thing out for a rip today. it's been almost a week!

"rip" completed. MAN i love this car. it just feels better and better the harder you push it. i have a little less rubber on the rear meats now.

i don't have a background in photography, and i kind of suck at taking pictures, but i absolutely love my nikkor 35mm f/1.8. it's so bright, and so fast, and so sharp. my wife hates it. she'd prefer to sit and zoom. however, she takes amazing pictures.

The 35/1.8 was made to be the APS-C equivalent of a 50mm lens on full frame (35*1.5=52.5mm). It's such a great focal length for an all purpose lens.

Heh...should have seen me trying to take some of pictures of the interior. Nobody called the cops though.

Using the LSD as intended for, Pete?? LOL

I like using just my stock 24-105 F/4L on my 6D. What can I use for a super quick lens that's sharp like my L glass?
