Wow, those are fast lenses. Great job, if you figure it out.
Lately I have been playing with stepping down on the lenses to get greater DOF for certain shots. I like the way it looks because it doesn't have that sharpness of digital even though it might lack the shallow dof.

i do that as well.. DOF adapters are for CONTROL over dof.. not just shallow dof.
