Saw this in a facebook group, looks like it might be an F2 instead of an F2.8 that was rumored the other day. Doesn't look to be AI so fingers crossed this is legit.
Hello to all!
I shoot with a K1000 and have been rocking with a three lens combo for the last year or so (a 24-50, 40, and a 35-70). During this time I've found two things:
I really love photos taken right around 50mm. I often tend to crop photos taken with my 40mm just a tad and I find myself around 50 all the time on my zooms.
I need more light gathering! F4 and F2.8 are great 90% of the time but I've definitely missed shots because my meter said to shoot at 1/15 over say 1/60.
I know i'm going to purchase a 50mm lens and money isn't an issue for me at the moment so my question is this, how much of a difference is there between 1.4 and 1.2 in practical use?
I don't really care about background blur (as I tend to shoot more documentary style) or chromatic apparition (as I often add a little distortion to my images anyway).
Thank you for the help!
