>>3120357>>3120358I used to be just like you guys.
I have been shooting professionally for years. Mostly marketing stuff.
I have my L-series primes.
I would shoot whatever for the client, then spend hours in photoshop making the photo look good.
(get the sharpest, most neutral image possible, adjust in post". That is the rule right?
Then, one day, I bought an old Super Takumar lens at a swap meet for 20 bucks. At the end of a client shoot, I put it on my camera and shot off so I could compare it to my L-series of the same focal length. (just for me, not for the client)
The client saw those shots when I uploaded them. Picked one of those shots on the spot. No editing required.
Now I use old lens, strange lenses, pantyhose over my lenses (got that from Star Wars), whatever... just don't shoot clean and sharp.
