Still feeling my way around on this cam. Cat pics were with Viv 135/2.8
and Rusted fencepost (dedicated to Peter cuz he likes these Laughing ) is
with Soligor 28/2.8.







Yeah, the cat wasn't cooperating, as usual! Laughing

Actually, Peter, I had more of these, but didn't want you to suffer from
sensory overload! Laughing I'll try to take some people pics tomorrow.
Here's a couple using the older of two J37As:





These pics are some of the views behind my house.

Oh but with cats it's easy. Just push him to do the exact opposite of what you want him to do. Laughing

nice ones.

So the 135mm has the FOV of a 270mm with the Oly 2x crop factor right?

Wow, so you almost have a 300mm f2.8 there, that must be nice Smile

Yes crop factor is great for telephoto work.
This is why many sport pro photographers use crop factor cameras when the frame per sec. rate is good.
There is definitely a use for crop factor cameras, many people who told me "you will sell your 400D" after I bought the 5D, just don't understand that.
I currently have two digital bodies, one full frame one crop, and when I go out for street events I feel fully covered. In my last series from Bardi castle I could take pictures as wide as 20mm on the 5D, and as long as 600mm f/4 or 400mm f/2.8 on the 400D.
And what is best is that you don't have to carry a large set of lenses around if you don't want to: a fast 135mm lens can work as a portrait lens on the 5D, and as action long tele lens on the 400D.
This is what I call versatility!
