Shooting with the low aperature can get kind of tricky when the aperature is very low like 1.4. The lens can be very clear in just a small portion of the picture. Pictured here shot using the 50mm 1.4. The only photoshop here is cropping the top half and editing of the face a little bit. Other than that there is no photoshop on blurring the photo. That is all lens right there.
As you can see the wall is almost totally out of focus, then as it gets close to her it gets into focus very quickly. Tram is fully in focus and then the background is blurred again.
You can see how small of an area you have in focus in the next picture by being close to the subject.
The next shot shows a bad use of the 50mm. The picture starts out nice but the depth of field is just too low and Tram’s face starts to get blurry to fast.
The right side of the wall is in focus. By the time you get to the left side of her face it’s starting to blur.
How can you fix this problem? You can either step back a bit adjust the focusing to the left a little and get the arm blurry and the face more clear.
Here are a few more examples of using the 50mm @ 1.4 aperature.
