Excellent, you just blew a big fat hole in the viewpoint you need a $$$ lens to make great pics.

4 and 9 for me. 8 has the best pose, IMHO, but the light beam on her face is distracting. Great series, though.

Nice to hear your favorite lens, people usually not respect it, I like it too.

I don't know if it is the lens, the sensor or the photographer (or all three), but the skin tones on number six are absolutely gorgeous! |

very nice Attila, both your work and Christina as your model!
The Meritar never really convinced me (I have two) and it was mainly missing contrast,
also visible in your shots (on my simple laptop LCD screen), so I always had to PP it.
The first two images as well as #8,9 have an overall greenish cast to it, which the
other ones do not have - white balance issues (??)

Thank you! I think this lens is a nice family portrait lens, strong contrast not good for many subjects.
White balance was auto but I used random flash , may where is contrast better that is made with flash.

Lovely shots Attila, but I'm not keen on the lens. Contrast is low although it creates some classic film like images I guess
