Checked out the Nifty Fifty today

man, that is one small lens... i plan on getting one very soon, maybe even this week.. but today was the first time i went to my camera shop and they actually had it in stock... I was pretty shocked at how small the lens was... not much bigger than a silver dollar..

 

Fastest lightest lens you'll ever own! Wait till you sling your rig around with it,.. my 40D fits in a 'hoody' pocket or small pack with that little gem on. The fixed FOV really opened up the creativity for me. Get it already! :thumbup:

They have a camera shop in Madoc?? WOW

None here in our three closest towns Alliston, Beeton or Tottanham.

 

even though its cheap, its hard to convince the wife that I NEED IT... mind you she was looking at it with me today, and was really impressed with the price... i'm dropping off some proofs to a client tomorrow.. hopefully they buy one of my packages, as opposed to just individual photos... if they do.. i'll be taking their 50% deposite directly to the camera shop and purchasing it.

 

man i wish.. but i think i'd be the only one shopping there, so I think they'd close down pretty quick... I was in Belleville for a staff meeting, and went to the mall afterwards.

 

I LOVELOVELOVE my nifty fifty!

That lens can shoot ANYTHING.
I LOVE IT.

 

Yup, My Nifty Fifty is my favorite...

 

Way to go, Chris :thumbup:

 

I want one too. Just to bad it won't focus on my D40

 

yea i'll likely just use it on my d50
