My first trip out, with a manual focus lens.  Prior to this, I have been using the Canon AF 50mm macro, on my Canon 40d.

I like this. You could probably crop a little off the right to tighten it up a bit. |

Thank you! I was wondering about that, but I am fairly new to this, so wanted to see if anyone else brought it up.
I will crop some, but I need to learn to better frame, in the camera. This way I take full advantage of all my pixels, for printing.
Thanks again

I love this lens!
I think the 55/1,8 and its little brother 55/2 areon top in K mount for a 50/55mm.
I tried just another 50mm better than these: Pentax A 50/2,8 macro.

Thank you everyone
