Re: Spring portrait photo shoot with NX500 and 85 1.4

I just use my 60mm Macro fpr portrait photos last days.

1. 60mm with 2,8 is not strong enough to separate the background well.

2. The AF worked fast and led to sharp photos in good light conditions. But the ultimate possible sharpness only was attained by using MF + focus loupe. This can only be applied for static objects.

3. Using only MF (on moving objects/models) is difficult and I will try to get more skill in that.

A 5x loupe as a pop up display as part of the normal screen would be good (~30%?)
