Who needs plants, anyway!?

First no CO2, and now no plants. You are in serious danger of being booted of this forum, sir. :lol:

f/1.0 eh?.... 😉 who's showing off now then....great depth mate.

but iso 400?....1/400 ? surely with that speed George you could muster up a shot with iso 100? 8)

Not sure where/how you got that info mate. But thanks anyway. 😀

It's 17mm, f/2.8, 1/400, ISO 800. Taken with my trusted 17-70mm Sigma. The noise difference is virtually indistinguishable up to ISO 800, so I'm just lazy most of the time and fire away at ISO 800.

I wish I could afford an f/1.0 lens...! lol

He he. Don't worry mate, I've still got my nano planted up and intend on getting a big 180cm opti-white NA-style in the longer-term.

Ah. Didn't realising you were opting for some macroalgae. My mistake 😀
I've never taken the plunge into marine (money), but looking after them at the LFS has been a joy!

Weird. It's wrong data when you do that. PCs eh?! 😛

If you copy the image to CS3>File>File Info>Camera Data 1 then you'll get the real data, as I posted.
 
Looks quality mate, i can't wait to see it in the flesh.

How long you going to keep each setup going for? Just for some photos and the learning curve?

Not long enough really, but I'm on a tight deadline for each feature for PFK.

You can't trust Windows... lol
 
I actually checked the EXIF info straight away and also spotted the f1.0 but thought it as an error as I never saw george mention a new lens, and f1.0!! But that DOF couldn't be f1.0 really, then again I naver had a f1.0 lens 😛 my best one is 2.8
 
Canon used to do a 50mm f/1.0 but replaced it with the f/1.2 in 1989. Retail was $2500 way back then.

One of Canon's best lenses is the 85mm f/1.2. One day maybe... Along with a FF sensor.

a girl at college has one of the 85mm 1.2L's which i tried the other week, instantly fell in love with the DOF for portraits!
 
The bokeh should be quality, too!
