Nifty Fifty Challenge 2024 - Chat thread

[Chris606]

Hi, welcome along Chris, you're correct, 30-35mm on a crop body is close to the 50mm FF

50mm ÷ 1.6 (canon crop factor) = 31.25mm on your zoom lens.

That's great thank you I wasn't too sure hopefully now I can get posting

[Paulie-W]

Well that's an interesting theme. Could easily go both ways too

Oaky so my Abstract for August is up. I actually like it as does evoke memories for me.

Talk about "last minute Larry"

 

[Fixer]

Tell me about it ! . . . I was going to take the photo in sunlight but I waited until it got dark outside. It is so abstract I didn't even give it a name !

Hey, you got there in the end

 

[swanseamale47]

I had a few goes but August is a busy month and a lot of my abstracts are on longer focual lengths. I got a few shots, but nothing I really liked enough to post.

It happens

 

[Fixer]

Well what a difficult task this month is in the vote. Everyone's photo's are a winner to me. I might have to have a tombola drum draw to select my top 3 at random!

Apologise if this has been asked before but is monochrome or black and white conversion allowed?

I'm sure I've done mono before. So can't see why not

Thank you, Paul and Toni

These certainly make us think about shots, and finding subjects. Always a good thing.
