[QUOTE="DonnieZ, post: 502514, member: 40831"] I did try zooming out a bit, but I gained some DoF that I wasn't looking for. I did try the 35.. With both the bra and a pair of panties... However I didn't like the result as much with the panties. Partially because of lighting concerns and my ability to hand hold and get the sharpness I wanted. Shooting it wide open not only softened it up a bit, but also gave me such a thin DoF that parts of the panties were in focus but parts were not. I'll have to set the shot up again and play with it. Since I'm a little new to the D7100, I've also read a lot about "fine tuning" the focus on all my lenses. I'm going to try that some night, as I think that would have a huge effect if it were "off" a bit when shooting wide open. Thanks for all the suggestions everyone - kind of a fun little experiment that I didn't think would spark this much discussion! [/QUOTE]
