« Last post by MEPER on May 10, 2026, 11:45:32 »This one I had only about 5 sec to try to get a decent image. I was in "stationary mode" where I select the focus point manually.
I tried after this image to change to "people". More of this next time I take a walk with the camera.
I can be quite fun to shoot people during Saturday night. A shame I did not have a bit more time to "play" with the girls.
I assume that (AFC, S, People) the camera will try to track moving people and only release when focus is perfect?

The small DOF at 1.8 can create a 3D like look.

I had to send one back as it had a de-centering problem. These lenses were a kit lens to the Nikon F100.
Dave
A focus motor in the camera is required for auto focus so some Nikon DSLR do not offer AF with this lens.
