    there just of me holding the camera in the mirror i know its not much but it displays the DOF pretty well
    i held the camera out far so it would focus in on it.... obviously

    Now that one I like!

    You think the 1.4 is fun? Try any fast lens in Macro! This one was only at f/2.8 but at like 2" away.

    Gary, what lense did you take that picture with, is it also a 50mm f/1.4?
    I'm looking to add another lens to the collection and this seems like it would a be pretty nice.

    Damn. Apparently I can't read anything right. Haha.

    No I wish it were the d300. The camera in the pic with the lens is an ancient d50. It has it's advantages though. The biggest to me is the internal focus motor so I could use the auto focus on the older af lenses.
