Who /40mm master race/ here? Tiny cocked 35mm users and faggot 50mm memers need not post in this thread
I know, right? Me and you, 40mm bro!
>>3100720
On full frame?
>>3100720
Don't even tell me you can tell the difference between 50 and 40 mm when it comes to composition.
You can buy a Nikon pancake 50mm for 50£ while an Ultron is 6 times that amount.
Loads of wank lads.
>>3100767
>buy 35mm
>crop to 40mm equivalent

ofc you can you mongrel, maybe YOU in particular can't because of your delusion
>>3100720

>not 43mm
kys
Pentax Q-S1 was my first digital camera and the 8.5mm prime is about 40mm equivalent on a full frame. I think this is the reason why I got so used to this field of view.
On a full frame manual focus camera, 40mm is probably the longest focal length that I am comfortable with using zone focusing.
>>3100876
I would probably qualify 40~45 range of focal length lenses (ff equiv.) as being in the same category. Prime lenses in this range usually share the same characteristics, very small without suffering major drawbacks for being tiny.
>>3100741
Why does it has iso settings on the lens? What mount is that?
>>3100892
It's m39 but only works on Soviet Lomo cams from the 50s. It is the only lens available on that cam and the settings for the light meter and all that bullshit are on the lens. isi uses one and swears by it.
>>3100720
That canon 40 is glorious piece of shit. I do terrible things to mine all the time because it's so fucking cheap you just don't care. It's a lens cap you take pictures with.

I have that exact same lens (but in white, it was cheaper).
Picked it up grey market off ebay.
Only got it because I found an MC-11 for like half off and wanted to give it a try. It works pretty damn well.
Though honestly, I prefer my Voigtlander 40mm f/1.4. Not as fast autofocusing, but an absolute dream to manually focus.
>>3100898
That's not an industar 69 fat fuck
>>3100907
>Not as fast autofocusing
Techart Pro? What body?
>>3100949
On the a7ii.
It is like 90% as fast as the MC-11, and loud as hell.
But it is pretty awesome.
Loudness ain't an issue when you can literally AF any lens. Planning on upgrading my NEX-6 within the next two years and the MC-11, LAEA-3, and Techart are going to be must buys. And Sony AF-S is supposed to be worse than AF-C from what I recall. Is that also true for the Techart/MC-11?
>>3100720
not a tessar
into the trash it goes
>>3100956
Oh yea, it is definately a fantastic adapter, and I love the shit out of it. But the noise and battery drain are my only complaints. It isn't quite as perfect as I was lead to believe.
AF modes work the same with adapters as they do with native lenses.
I honestly haven't used AF-S on my camera very often, but from what I hear the eye-tracking on newer models is absolutely fantastic.
I have the LA-EA4, not the 3, because I have quite a few screw driven lenses. Fantastic adapter, though if you get the translucent mirror dirty you are fucked, no way to clean/replace it.
yes 45mm is really nice
the only 35mm camera I use anymore

45 is the true master race.
45 is pretty neato, like my pic related a lot
50 is fucking horrible, using the 50 1.8 STM on my 5dc is absolute cancer
>>3101003
why do you hate the nifty fifty
was thinking of getting one
>>3101003
For the price there's nothing wrong with that lens. they even changed the crappy plastic mount.
>>3100907
>tfw have a pen f so the only 3 voigtlanders I can use are a 35 mm equivalent, 50 mm equivalent, and 85 mm equivalent.
So I have a panasonic 40 mm equivalent and the voigtlander 35mm equivalent
>>3100962
>3.5
Guess the Rollei is going with it
>>3101120
with no coupled rangefinder, mostly shoot f8-16 anyway
>>3101039
You get what you paid for.
I got the newest version and in the studio, stopped down, it performs very well, but anywhere I want to shoot wide open, the bokeh is so bad I would rather go through the effort of shooting my lynx 14 to get the beautiful bokeh rendering.
I will post examples soon when I'm home
>>3101479
In studio, shot on 5D classic, extremely sharp.
I will post these all full sized

Lastly here's a good one, the 50 really only suffers with bright points of light so in a photo where the background is dark it's not bad

That look like a Norman Rockwell painting.
I'd like to hear about the details of setting up a shot like this.
Wuz up my nikkors?
>>3101493
Is this non-ai to ai converted?
>>3101536
not my pic but I do have an ai converted 45gn
>>3101541
What's the advantage of picking a lens just 5mm of focal lenght shorter than a 50mm that can be 2x faster.
>>3101547
came mounted on a nikkormat ftn i picked up cheap
>>3101487
basically a big softbox on the right behind me, a rim light behind the person on the left at about half the power of the key light, and a white backdrop
I have a 35mm on a Leica M8 so 46ish mm which I find perfect.
>>3101493
Korean?
What is the most cuck focal length?
>>3102248
anything above 135mm
>>3101003
Physically the 50mm STM is hard to fault. Optically is just as good as the average 50mm. Wide open performance is not great as to be expected from a small cheap lens. If you want to get good wide open performance you need to pay the price and weight of something like a Sigma Art 50mm.
For the size the 50mm STM is perfect for canon full frame DSLRs.
>>3101481
Do you have an example of what you consider good in the same situation?
>>3102263
This is not the best in terms of exactly the same situation but it's on my phone.
It's the 180mm for the rb67

Sell your Mamiya to someone who can do something with it.
>>3100876
Is the aperture going the wrong way? I've only ever seen it go the other way on the lens
>>3102252
I see people shitting on telephoto lenses all the time but what about macro lenses? Surely there is legitimacy to using those right?
>>3101691
Si, senior
>>3102854
telephoto gets shit on for 2 reasons that I can think of.
1) they are not selected for their compression or other effects but for staying a good distance away from your subject, like chickenshit "street" photographers who want to shoot from across the street.
2) used by middle aged balding dudes for shooting birds at the local park who chose their angles and boceh so you almost don't see the houses in the background. these men have no creative skills and often carry around $25,000.00 in gear to shoot a robin or a finch and might get the occasional chicken hawk.
macro is often wider than 135 and you usually get close enough
>>3102960
>macro is often wider than 135 and you usually get close enough
As long as I'm not a cuck for using a macro I'm happy. That being said I do have a shitty zoom for shooting birds with but I'm not sitting on a park bench with 2 grand worth of lenses
>>3102829
made me lol, i asked a random person jogging by to let me take a photo so i could try out my 180 when i had just got it.
you sound bitter as fuck, do you need to go back into your safe space before your autism blows up?
Oh, and I've sold my RB and lenses to fund something with movements, I already got a fool frame meme for portraits

40mm STM is my favorite lens for IR. Just perfect - sharp, no hotspot, right focus.
