thanks metric and lestat, i could not afford a tilt-shift so i just resorted to online post process :D

very nice lens you got there 1tanker, i'm currently debating of getting that lens or the 24-105 since i find my 17-55 to be a little bit short to my liking

Thanks ridney.:) A few considerations(which you've likely already thought of).You've already got wide-medium angle covered with your 17-55, so a 24-105 would overlap a lot of your focal-lengths. With the 70-200..it's still a nice range and you would only have a void from 55-70, which isn't much of an issue..one lens or the other will get you that 15mm by taking a few steps forward or back. Here in Canada, the 70-200 is $1200 CAD, and the 24-105 is $1270CAD..and the 24-105 is also slower than your 17-55. To top off the price issue, the 24-105 takes 77mm filters, vs. the 70-200's 67mm...costing a few bucks more for each filter. ;) I guess the 2 main issues are whether you plan to go FF down the road, and if you really want/need 200mm FL. :shrug: GL

Edit: I guess the filter size issue isn't an issue, as your 17-55 uses that size and you could share them.

Lestat can you set aperture manually with any of those lenses?

I could really use a ~35mm fast lens with MF & manual aperture for my 500D when recording videos since I can't control the depth of field using the camera settings

you bet. the 50mm will go to F/16 and the 135mm will go to F/22

but M42 lenses have a little push pin on the rear of the lens that must be pressed in in order to allow the iris to open and close when you change the f-stop.
most M42 adapters to not hold that pin in, so you have to make your own way to hold the pin in, i just use superglue, push the pin in, put a little around the pin and hold it until its dry enough to stay, and then let it dry fully before i use it.

there are some lenses with an auto/manual switch and those ones do not require the pin to be pushed in, just flip the switch and you can change f-stop on the fly.

the 135mm lens is like that where as all my other M42 lenses must have the pin held down.

i'll get a picture for you tonight when i get home.

I know this is from kinda far back, but make sure the the steering wheel is turned so that the front wheel is facing the camera. Looks better than the tire tread :D
