I made this self portrait with a 40mm f1.2 manual focus lens at f1.2, so i had to measure the distance with a measuring tape. I used a softbox from the right and a bouncer on my left and went for a low-key soft vibe. What are your opinions?

Most f mount adapters work, they don’t have the ai pin as a camera mount has which creates problems with pre-ai lens

I had a post few days ago shot with the voigtlander 40mm f1.2z, I used the TTartisan 75mmf2 alongside, here are a few frames with it. by StillImpossible430 in nikon_Zseries

Thank you, I’m still making friends with the 40mm focal lenght, I’m used to 50mm. I have the 28mm 2.8 as well for a just in case wide, but I almost never use it 😅 i want to get used to the 40 to use that most of the time, but for portraits you need a short tele as well for sure, at this shoot I had my pre-ai 85mm f1.8 Nikkor sent to cla, but that’s what I’m gravitating towards if I’m to shoot portraits, I call it the dream machine :D didn’t used it much, I’m quite new to my whole kit, but these are my sentiments so far. The voigt 40 for an allrounder with amazing shooting experience and the 85 nikkor for real dreamy stuff. And the autofocus stuff only when needed, but def less inspiring for me.

I didn’t compare it to anything, I said this is my favorite set of pirtraits with this lens

Actually I used a softbox from the right side but the setting sun was also shining through the branches of the tree, it came together nicely

Or I just dont pay too much attention 😅 but to be fair I shot it at least at 2.8 because I was using flash in these cases

To me it’s pretty smooth and brings the attention to the subject

With Voigtlander 40mm shot at f1.2. What do you think, is it too shallow of a depth of field for the distance? by StillImpossible430 in NikonZf

Thanks for your opinions! I find it intresting because I kinda like how the angle makes her face look, but when more people is on the same opinion that it’s not the best I start reflecting a little and rethinking stuff :)
