I am very familiar with this forty-some-years old lens.
Camera body: Canon EOS 550D
Lens: Sigma ART 50mm ƒ/1.4
Aperture: ƒ/6.3
Exposure: 1/100 s
ISO: Dual-ISO 100+200
Before the last time I suddenly disappeared from the blockchain last Winter, I was doing a project I was supposed to post here on Steem. I was going through the good and bad things on this manual lens, a review of sorts. I was promising to do it "soon" and everything.
But I guess the time wasn't right and the project stagnated. In a matter of fact it is still pretty much frozen, but the good news is it is not lost and forgotten. I have saved everything I wrote into a text file I can edit and eventually copy on Steem.
I have plenty of photos shot with the 35mm, but they were all taken in the winter so I might have to re-do some of them, or wait for the next Winter to come before publishing.
Anyway, today I made some studio shots for the article. I'm still wanting to release the full article, or shorter segments if it if grows too long.
But for now on, I will just try to continue my #threesixtyfive #onephotoeveryday project without too many distractions and maybe if I have the time, tweak and eventually finish the lens review. It may take a while, but I guess this lens that's almost as old as me has learned some patience during these last forty years.
