I was shooting with the A50mm f1.7, so I didn't have to get that close - she was maybe 4 or 5 feet way. I focused manually, pointed at her and she didn't seem to notice, so I snapped. Sometimes they notice (as you can see in my Bovine Sex Club GESO that I just posted) sometimes they don't (like the two barmaids); either way the photo can be interesting. I guess I just try to look natural, always keep the camera out in the open (so it's no big deal when I put it up to my face) and don't make any sudden movements. After I take a shot or two, I calmly put the camera down as if nothing happened. Surprising how often I'm ~not~ noticed.

Pretty woman, nice pic, Frank. cheers, Christine - Original Message - From: frank theriault knarftheria...@gmail.com To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net Sent: Friday, January 01, 2010 3:47 PM Subject: PESO - Pensive Was out celebrating New Years Eve with my middle daughter at (of all places) a local bar called the Bovine Sex Club. The feature band was called Creepshow. I got very few pix of the band, as a mosh pit was happening, and when I got close to the stage I tend to get jostled too much to shoot in low light with slow shutter speed. So I spent lots of time photographing the young people around the bar. This young lady seemed especially pensive. I know, I focused on the wrong eye (wish I'd caught that front eye) but I still rather like this one: http://knarfinthecity.blogspot.com/2010/01/pensive.html Hope you enjoy. Comments welcome. Now off to process more of last night's festivities. cheers, frank -- Sharpness is a bourgeois concept. -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO: Pensive
I think it's one of the nicest lenses Pentax has ever made in that focal length, (~28mm). I don't use mine nearly enough since I shoot mostly digital.

Re: PESO: Pensive
It's more or less a normal lens on the APS-C sensor cameras, (true normal equivalent to the 43mm on film), and a relatively slow normal lens at that. I currently carry an A 24mm f2.8 for a wide, 43 ltd.as a longish normal and the M 85 f2 for a nice general telephoto as my walking around kit. There really isn't a place in that lineup for the 30mm. Now if my widest rectilinear prime was a 20mm then I could replace the 43mm with the 30mm or the 35mm f2.0.. Subash wrote: On Sun, 20 Jul 2008 14:24:50 -0400 P. J.
