Manual lens fun

Spending an afternoon enjoying the weather, cigars and BBQ.

 

This was shot with a manual lens (a Super-Takumar 50mm 1.4). The lens doesn't communicate any data to the camera, so you'll just have to take my word for it that this was shot wide open.

 

Manual focus would have been a lot harder were it not for the 5D Mark II's Liveview feature and amazing LCD screen resolution.
