Good Morning, Philippe! The shot of the young lad (Tim?) taken with the FD 50 1.4 is really quite amazing. The detail in the eyelashes (when viewed large) is really quite amazing, and the bokeh remarkably pleasing. I'd say it would make a good portrait lens on an MTF camera... Good enough to make me look through our local camera shop, on Monday, when I'll have some spare time. :-) Hi to Alice! Cheers! --- David Young Logan Lake, Canada.
