| New camera lens So, after posting the last photo of Gunner T. Fluffles I came to the conclusion I needed a new lens. Got it today and tried it out. He was not cooperating so they are not the greatest, but they are better! I think if I can get the light better then I will be happy. Always seems part of his face is in a shadow. I need good lighting to eliminate this, but I also need him to hold still, not gonna happen.

| So precious! I want to try shooting Acorn with my DSLR, just haven't had time to get around to it! I always am holding treats in one hand, hard to take the pic with the other. Using a tripod and stand does help, but then I am limited in angles/scenery.

2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | Such a cutie pie. . . the difference between the post pics and your avatar is incredible ! The lens must be working . . I am in need of a lens for mine that takes the glair away and photographs the true color when I take pics of my fabrics and post them. Especially the reds and oranges, I've tried every trick imaginable, Very frustrating ...

| A couple more, having fun with the new lens. I love how it automaticly fades the background.

| I'm sure you are going to love your new lens. I love using my prime lenses because I can isolate my subject from the background, and I love the effect of a blurry background. I try to do this with my photos of Katie, but I'm usually rushed, and I often don't apply a lot of what I have learned to do..I always try to focus on the eyes, but sometimes the nose gets more in focus instead. With practice, you'll find yourself learning a lot. You have such a beautiful subject to photograph.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Great pics, loving the bokeh! What lens did you get? Are you using a prime? It looks like you may be using a prime and a larger aperture.

| I am happy to help with any questions you have. Your 50 mm lens is a prime lens because it has a single focal length.

| Thank you so much. I did go to the link you gave me and have been reading and trying to figure it out. We will be busy for the next few days, today was my husbands birthday and I'm making Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow, so I won't have much time for the next few days. I took a beautiful photo of my granddaughter and Gunner but the color is all off. My daughter says she can fix it with photoshop. I am going to try too.

| You picked a great lens :-) I love my 50 mm for portrait photography, it has great dof ( depth of field, meaning fades away from your focus point. Another great lens I love if you want amazing detail, such as being able to see every little hair, is the 100 macro with stabilizer for lens shake. I also love my 70-200 for outside scenes as it has great quality photos and will adjust to distance up o 200mm away from you. Those are my 3 most used lens :-) |
