New toys arrive by the minute. The DSLR has opened the floodgates. I got my new Lensbaby the other day and have started to get used to it.
It is a bit weird to begin with. I’m trying to apply all my large format learning - lens angle equals half the angle between the film plane and the focus plane, yadda, yadda… but it seems to be a bit more unpredictable than that. More of an intuitive experience. Which is actually a bit more enjoyable. Screw the maths I can just take lots of pictures with the DSLR and hope I get it right. Shoot from the hip!
