Generic sunset, portrait


50D, 24-105/4


Turns out you can use lenses OTHER than the 400/5.6 on a 50D. Who knew!
Since I'm not really into the "normal" wide angle (24-28mm on full frame) range, the 24-105/4 makes for a good walkaround lens on the 50D. The wicked barrel distortion on the wider end is not quite as big a problem as on a full frame camera, another bonus!

And while it's no 85/1.8 for portrait work, it can certainly get the job done:

That portrait of yours is quite lovely.

Thanks -- I was really pleased with how it turned out. Sent it to adoramapix (so far, nothing but good things to say about them) for an 11x14 which came out great.
