  • The Eyes Have It

    Hi,

    I recently bought the Zuiko 50mm F/2 macro lens for my Oly E-500. I took this shot today of my cat as a test. The shot was taken with the aperture full open. As you can see, the DOF is pretty narrow at this setting! Comments welcome.

    Hi,
    An interesting experiment, How did you getr the cat to co-operate? The cats right eye is the point of focus the cats left eye is softer, looks like a good lens. looking forward to seeing some more macro with it.

      Hi Tinka,

      Thanks for the comments. The cat was dozing in her little cat bed and had just awakened. She stayed still for a while and let me take a few shots.

      The weather has been pretty dismal here for the past several days. It makes me wonder when I'll get a chance to take any outdoor macro shots.

      This lens also does a good job at portraits. A couple of days ago I took some candid shots of the children of friends of ours while we were babysitting. Perhaps there will be a couple of good ones to post from these.
