50/1.5: With all the talk about the new CV lens

Chris, nice cat. I like to chase my wife's with a Rolleicord TLR. That is tough going I say ...

The cats are always good for test shots when comparing lenses or for when you have one or two shots left on a roll.

I wouldn't claim that from my wife's cats. They are typically to active, which is part of the challenge when using shallow depth of field.

This is a lens that I may add to my 50mm lens set. My 50mm lenses are not as sharp as this lens.

Unless you sold your Canon 50/1.4, I'm not sure that's true 🙂

Roland! You always check on the validity of my RFF statements!

I listened to you, and I never sold my Canon 50/1.4 [which is a very sharp lens].

Maybe Roland, but it will be a dammed close race

Agreed. 🙂
