Today I shot for the first time in RAW.
And today I shot for the first time with my Konica Hexanon 1.4.

All shots wide open, exept the last one.

Of Course I like the last 2, and the hand

Looks like a great Lens for using limited DOF. The Konica colors are always really nice and natural.

Great series here! I love the expression on the baby's face in the last photo.

I like the photo of the Buddha, and the one with the lamps.

I have two statues of Buddha myself, and I've been thinking of doing a photo with one of 'em later when my bonsai is getting healthier(I've given it too much water, poor plant).

how was the raw experience?

From now on I will always shoot raw. More detail,colors and more flexible.
I must admit it is way better:)

Converting and noise reduction can better be done in lightroom.

Only disadvantage: filesize. oh my harddisk

its an eye opener for sure, dynamic range can also be stretched quite a bit. The file size is noticeable, you gotta make a habit out of deleting the non usable files and if you can get yourself an external hdd, I bought a usb 3, 3 terrabyte hdd for 99$ at office depot.
