VBS Through My Lens


I got a chance to try out each of my lens this week for VBS.  I used my all purpose 18-200mm, 35mm/f1.8, and 50mm/f1.4 lens.  My favorite turned out to be the 50mm.  I was consistently getting great images and skin tones.  At any given hour, I would go from inside the church sanctuary activities, to an indoor market, to outside for games.  While the 18-200mm worked great for zooming in and out, it didn't do as well in the sanctuary.  Even with flash, it tended to produce grainy pictures.  I'm so spoiled with the 50mm/f1.4 lens.  

Here are a sampling from VBS.  I'll be back to post the picture specifics for each one:
