I had a chance to try out a nice Sony 70-200 lens while I was visiting Poland last time. I had the Sony with me instead of the Nikon so it was now or never. There was no need for an adapter (I would lose the autofocus with it).
I took it to the garden of course, to quickly check what it can do. It was also the first time I used the Sony body with autofocus! Normally I attach the old, fully manual lenses to it, so this was a nice change.
Oh yea... catch the smallest things possible (because I was missing my macro lens). It did pass a test, at least for me. Especially that it is a zoom lens, not a macro one. The details, even after quite a bit of cropping, weren't bad at all.
The fluffy dandelions were everywhere and looked arrestable.
Below some scallions flowers.
I even got some tiny bokeh bobbles :)
Lastly one of my favorited things to do when I have few objects at different distance - set the camera te shallow DOF and play with the focus :)
Both photos (the one above and below) were shot from the same spot and the same settings. I just focused on a different thing.
This is how we can choose what we want others to look at and hide the rest.
Dandelions <3
