The Best Portrait Lens : 50 mm 1.2 L or 85 mm 1.2 L


If u are an amateur or professional photographer , u might have asked yourself these questions

"which is the best portrait lens in canon?"
"is the EF 50 mm f 1.2 L good enough for portraits?"
"Is the 85 mm f 1.2 L II the ultimate in portrait photography?"
"i need to invest in one portrait lens, which one do i buy?"

I am an amateur photographer myself but as i own both these lenses , i want to answer the above questions in my own way and hopefully that will help you decide which lens is best suited to your photography tastes

Eye Macro Shot with Canon 5D Mark III and Kenko Extension tube set


Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark III
ISO: 12800
Exposure: 1/60 sec
Aperture: 7.1
Focal Length: 100mm
Flash Used: No


Kenko Extension Tube : also called Extension rings are extremely useful in macro photography. they dont contain any glass elements and are hollow. what they do is, move the lens farther from the image plane. 
They are placed in between the camera body and the lens.


The Kenko Extension DG set consists of 3 rings or tubes at 12 mm, 20 mm and 36 mm, which can be used either singly or in combination depending on the magnification required.

Canon EF 8 - 15 mm f 4 L Fisheye USM lens review with test shots


I am not really good at lens reviews but i decided to try this one out anyways just because Canon have probably made their most fun lens ever.
Its a Fisheye lens, not something that i would have bought a few months back, simply coz i was happy with the gear i already owned. it was only until i managed to see a few shots taken with the Fisheye lens and the positive reviews given by Kai, presenter on Digital Rev Tv( a hardcore Nikon fanboy praising canon lens?)  i decided to dig into my savings and buy this piece of expensive glass.

Build Quality : its an L series lens. that means it has all the awesomeness of an L lens, Canon's flagship series of top of the line quality products. its small in size, and its also a bit plasticy, but its made from some very strong plastic. and its weather sealed.... so take it out anywhere , anytime... just dont try going underwater, coz that will be plain stupid.
