Well Luke, I speak a mix of Scots and English with lots of colloquial bits thrown in (most Scots do), and add phrases from travelling. I also make bits up as I go along. I think my favourite addition is the internationally famous "same same but different" (Hinglish for similar) although in our house since Marrakech the way to indicate tongue in cheek quality and one upmanship to anything is to slap the word Berber in front of it.
"I love you, baby"
"Yeah, but I REALLY love you"
"But I BERBER love you"
Anyway - the adapter came for the midgie repellant 100-300 and the strapping on ceremony commenced. The lens is about 3 times the size of the camera which leads to some interesting dynamics. I've only done hand held or chair propped in the kitchen type shots, one of which I might keep actually, to see what it does and how to handle it. I think the answer to the handling is tripod/stationary object, but it's quick and smooth and easy to use, focus peaking highly effective on the NEX of course. The DOF is pretty shallow on these shots at min focus distance. I'm very pleased, especially as it was £18 in the charity shop. Even better as himself paid for it.
I can't show you the first shot as it's the husbandly face, but I am thinking of trying it on a night shoot tonight if I can organise myself adequately - There's more I want to do underneath the previously featured motorway but the next few shots I think have to be from the other side of a busyish road. Long lens will be perfect. I'll also have the fast50 as it worked best before and I thought I'd try the 16mm native from v close up.
New toys are great aren't they?
