This is my son Peter on his first day of school: the goof forgot to
button half of his shirt, so I snapped a photo. This is taken with a
Pentax P30t with a 50mm 1.4 lens, no cropping or editing. I can't
decide if I like it in color or black and white, which is the next
photo over. All comments

Black and White is OK, but color is more memorable.
Get some more of his face next time.

Nice moment. Quite often, the key to getting great kid pics is to get down to
their level. Shoot from your knees.

I like the color version, but for good reason: Aside from your boy's skin
tones, the rest of the image is almost monochromatic blue tones. His clothes
are blue, and the shade that the scene is in makes everything else look blue-
ish. Thus, the saturated warm tones of his skin and hair make a
I like the BW version.
Wonderful shot - there's an innocence to it - like all that matters in
life is getting that button done up.

Just making sure that you have adjusted the diopter setting on the
viewfinder to your vision. One time, I let my brother shoot
Form manual focus, if you have the viewfinder adjustment in sharp
focus, the usual issue is wide-open contrast of a given lens.
I find the focus indicator is right on the money for lenses in the f/
2.8 to f/4 range, but isn't accurate enough to use it alone with an f/
1.4-f/2 lens wide open.
I ignore it all the time. I have not found it's accuracy to the level
that I require. It seems to have a wider range of acceptable focus
than works for me. So I just focus manually as I always have. My
preference is for a plain matte screen, so the supplied screen is not
too bad for me.

good eye, James. And first class craftmanship as well.
BTW: I found your message right in the middle of a thread about whether
are DA lenses
Lovely shot, James.

well,
JaKM so getting sharp focus is proving frustrating.
