Rear Window 500/8 Mirror

The file above contains both IPTC and Exif. So why does it show this :- Lens Model: Canon EF 35-80mm f/4-5.6 Focal Length: 50 FNumber: 4 ISO Speed Ratings: 3,200 Cause that's what the adapter reports. I haven't programed it yet. You have obviously never used adapted lenses... -- teleportation kills |

Most don't give a rat's ass about the format, unless it interferes with the viewing. Talk about the image. I think it is an interesting image. The doughnut bokeh is characteristic of any cat lens. -- PeterN |

I've taken shots that show no donuts because there were no specular highlights. That is the mirror lens's best destiny. A cat lens is not intended to be used as a general purpose lens. Many of us like the effect, and use one for that purpose. Your comment is about as valid as complaining that a wide angle lens is not good for wildlife. -- PeterN |

The 500/8 and 17-40/4 is about the same size, takes the same filters and the mirror weighs less, so it's easy to bring even if you don't plan on using a long lense... -- teleportation kills |

Well... You might have got lemons but I'm positively surprised and love to be able to have a super tele in the bag that ain't bigger, 15cm in length or heavier than a compact WA zoom. Wether you like the *form* of the bokeh or not is a matter of taste, it's a function of the shape of the aperture. I do not really understand the frantic hate against "cats" that some people show. -- teleportation kills |

I get the SAME 401 error. Remember this unanswered question from 17 May? Message-ID: = A question? When YOU use dropbox to display an image, unlike myself and other users here you don't give away details of your name. Can you please advise how you achieve that? For your trouble, I'll share this recent image of my niece's dog (taken with my sister's iPad Pro) https://www.dropbox.com/s/3yjpec26pj...Daisy.jpg?dl=0 Looking at it on my iMac - it seems pretty good quality. What do you think? = I suspect skulduggery! ;-) -- David B. Btw, my sister TOOK the photograph too! |
