Ive got a nikon n75. No digital slr for me, i wish i had the cash for something like that!
Does anyone do any of their own devoloping/ printing?
Or has digital tottaly taken over the dark room?
BTW great shot chop stick hero, if it was on film you could burn the clouds in and keep a lighter tone on the lower half of the mage.

I was going to get the 50mm MkII f1.8 prime but i realized that i hardly shoot at 50mm. it's actually more like 80mm since the Rebel XT has a crop factor of 1.6 (50mmx1.6=80mm). It's also slightly inferior to the 50mm f1.4 in terms of background blur (bokeh) since the f1.8 has a 5 sided element (so little blurred lights in the background will look like pentagons). there are alot of reviews on it and probably 90% of the users like it alot. Hey, it's nickname is the Thrifty Fifty.rjmhotrod said:Anybody using the cheap (~$170) Canon 28mm prime lens? I picked up the 50mm because it was so cheap and supposedly pretty sharp. Haven't seen a whole lot about the 28mm yet.

You can read up on the 28mm f2.8 prime here: http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Canon-EF-28mm-f-2.8-Lens-Review.aspx
are you talking about selective focus and background blur?crispixoo7 said:i got a question...i'm an amateur photo-taker (not photographer, lol) and i'm trying to get my camera to take pictures with a focused center and a blurry outside....any ideas? shutter speed?
oh, by the way i've got a cybershot 7.2 megapixel

are you trying to achieve this effect in all kinds of pictures? or are you trying to achieve it on certain types of pics (like close-ups)?
kind of like this? focused knob, background slightly blurred:
