Quote: Thanks everyone. As for the white balance, I just set it to flash and the was it. Any tips on how to properly set white balance? Ideally, you should set a custom WB...but for something like a wedding, your light may change from shot to shot, so that may not be the best option. I leave the WB set to auto...but I also shoot in RAW, so I can easily adjust the WB on the computer, after the wedding is over. Personally, I don't think...

I have this lens. It's a great lens but it is DX. So if you plan on going full frame anytime soon then I would say don't get it. Get a 35 f/2 or 501.8 or 1.4 If you're not this lens is so sharp and light. It has a rubber gasket to keep anything from getting in behind the lens. Colors are great and everything. Check out my flickr a lot of those pictures are with it. In my blog the photos on there like the spider one were with...

I would go wit " u get what u pay for ".

The Clone is a bit visible over where her scar once was, and I think her face might still be a bit underexposed. For ****s and giggles try out this program here and see what you can do with it and it's intuitive layer masking (control points).. Free for 15days.. Nik Software, Inc. | Viveza

I should note that the only reason I sold it in the first place is because it was either too wide, or not wide enough for my needs. Performance wise, it's probably the deal of the decade along with the 50 1.8 of course.

The overcast weather is killing the dimensionality component...with no real, significant shadows, buildings under construction look dull and lifeless. A previous poster makes a good point about filling the frame more and suppressing background depth of field; the first shot,for example has what appears to be a senior guy talking with a couple of workmen, but there's a distracting background figure,competing for attention. In the second...
