When I watch your videos, I feel like I am learning from a photographer rather than a YouTuber or an Instagrammer. That is very appreciated. Well done.
-
Looking at a scene vs being part of a scene - I've never thought about it like that. I like it.
-
Great tip about quick focusing using the hard stop of infinity...
-
That infinity focus tip is absolute gold. Thank you for sharing it, and as always, another wonderful video.
-
First time I’ve heard this hard stop focusing tip from infinity down. Outstanding insight.
-
I love my manual focus Nikon 50mm f/1.2. Renders absolutely beautifully. Have taken many of my best (most beautiful) street images with it.
-
Nice tip on starting manual focus with lens set at infinity to quickly find focus. I recently purchased the Fuji 33mm f1.4 lens & it has become one of my favourites. Tack sharp, with nice contrast & it is quick to find focus.
-
Another great video Jeff!
-
your words are like poetry to me..thank you
-
I totally agree with everything you have said - 50mm is a beautiful lens !!
-
Worth watching for the speeding up manual focusing tip alone. Subscribed. Thank you.
-
Best 50mm reflection thoughts I have seen so far, thx!

Great tips Jeff. I've always loved the 50mm and use it most often.

Watching from Tokyo..a beautiful morning... thank you

Wow. Thank you for sharing

Over the decades, I have used Nikon, Pentax, Fuji, and Miranda 50mm lenses on 35mm film SLR cameras. My personal favorite was the 8-element 50mm f/1.4 Takumar for the Pentax Spotmatic SLR. The 50mm focal length on a full-frame body was my favorite for shooting live theatre.
