Just wondering what F stop you like for candid portraits like this one. Was this wide open. Given enough light my temptation would be F2.8 but just curious about your preference.

Hi Peter,
Yes, this was wide open. I would usually stop down just a little on a f1.8 lens (say f2.0 or f2.2) to to sharpen things up whilst maintaining a nice, shallow depth of field. That said, this lens seems to be very sharp wide open so no really need to stop down.
I have a canon 85mm f1.8 for my 5D & the Sony seems much sharper wide open.
Cheers,
Lee
