And some first portraits... (High ISO, open aperture, slow shutter speed)









And this one, although totally ooF and with motion blur, I like a lot:

Thanks. Especially in this pic you can see how narrow the DoF is. Her right eye is in focus, her left eye isn't! Shocked

Unfortunately she moved just when I shot. I don't bother if there is a crop, but her face is cut a little too much for my taste.

Beautiful captures Carsten!
With models like these children of yours even a kit lens shines.
I'm looking forward to some more torturous test for this Zeiss Twisted Evil
Lets see what this can do in a tough light situation.
