Shoot RAW and you won't need it.
Thanks for saying that because I have a point-and-shoot atm, and I'm saving up for a DSLR. But I didn't know all about RAW. I know it's uncompressed (unlike JPEG), and that it's more flexible in terms of post-processing, but not to what extent.
I just got one of those:
I only played with it for a few minutes, but it?s interesting not having adjustable magnification and having such a short DOF.
It's a cheap lens, but on the other hand, it's a cheap lens.
50mm 1.8II, a bit flimsy cheap lens, which performs really great when you think about the price.. 1.8 is a nice large aperture and if you stop it down a bit (2.0/2.5) it is really sharp lens..
Well, sorry for living in a country where everything costs 4 times more...
Maybe it wasn't clear what I meant. Cheap quality, but a cheap, fast 50mm prime, cheaper than an extension tube or some filters. Meaning you'd be a fool not to have one, unless you're budget was unlimited.
I have one too BTW.
Know of a photographer who used to get himself two or three EF 50/1.8 II when he traveled in places with poor climate. If one got filled with dust, sand or moisture, he just chucked it away and picked up one of the others..
edit: might as well continue with that theme. Does this mean that 35mm digital users are more control freaky than MF digital users?
Anyone gotten the "unexpected end of file error" in Lightroom?
Lightroom is really awesome when it works, which is about half the time in my experience.
I honestly never had ONE problem with it. Can you give more details? RAW or JPEG? What camera?
