Cool means one can use f2.8 on a 55mm macro for portraits ?

wow, sujoy, just checked out the images from your friends. They are absolutely brilliant at this.

@ kaz yes off course I can use it as portrait lens ...and result will be very sharp indeed...but its a 100% manual lens...you have to decide the aperture and shutter speed yourself and metering wont work on D5200
thats the advantage of D7000 ....now I am getting focus confirmation and point metering it became easy to use

@amlan ...yup really those are great ...his gears are also superior no doubt ....300f4+tc 1.4x is much superior then 150-500 but cost also double used

Sujoy, Rose1 is really nice.

Nice shots srk, specially the first one. Great golden hour shot

 

[sujoyp]

nice shots srkmish ...1st one is quit good...it would look much better if all birds would fly similarly ..but thats not in our control
other two are very sharp...looks nice

 

[Gen.Libeb]

@srkmish - Nice. I like the 3rd pic of the white bird.

For the iphone pics, the one thing common between all of them, all have great locations.
