albert_smith Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I had shot some family photos this weekend and had a few frames to burn to finish the roll, so I did a quick lens test for four Nikkors that could be considered ?normal? lenses. They are the manual focus AI / AIS versions of the 50mm f/1.4, the 50mm f/1.8, the 55mm f/2.8 Micro-Nikkor and the 35mm f/1.4. This was not to be a scientific overall test, but simply a quick glance at how these lenses render the out of focus part of the scene based on the aperture.<P> Shown side-by-side as they are presented, you can see the background blur, and if you click on the small image, you can see the larger version to get a better view.<P> All images received the exact same manipulation, just some sharpening and contrast boost to get the jpegs to match the photos.<P> So what does this all mean? Probably not much. Anyhow, take a look if you are interested.<P> <a href="http://www.photo.net/photodb/presentation.tcl? presentation_id=269336"> Lens test </a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
