Pauli PPariah why f/8? I think the used aperture was f/2.8... Pretty sharp taking into account that Robert Glöckner shot hand held.... No VC (IS) - correct? Actually I expected bokeh to be smoother.... I think my Tamron f/2.8 90 mm has a similar construction. It is also very sharp but I find shooting marco without a tripod quite challenging, especially insects or moving leaves... Well may be my hands are shaky :)
Michael Mossiagin Pauli PPariah Oshi Shikigami thanks for your kind words and I confess that 'bokeh' is not my primary goal, maybe because such lenses are out of reach for me. I have another macro lens, a old Tokina 90mm with extender for up to 1:1 too. I will try a comparison...
Gorgeous!!!
ReplyDelete송민호 thank you very much :-)
ReplyDeleteMagnificent bokeh at f/8
ReplyDeleteYou asked for critical response. But, I can not think of anything specific to say, is bad or wrong here. It is very much a keeper! Great shot. :-)

ReplyDeleteMichael Mossiagin The EXIF info says "NIKON D800
ReplyDeletef/8 1/250 105mm ISO280"
you are right Pauli PPariah , my bad. f/2.8 is the maximum aperture.
