I know I'm not purchasing f/1.2, that shit is expensive.. Do you think the f/1.8 is sufficient or would you recommend the f/1.4?

Thanks for all the great tutorial man!! I've learned so much from your videos. I'm just curious about how you managed to get the edges of your shot so dark.. Did you do it post? Most other imgages at the end of the video also have a similar composition. the subject and the bokeh are the only two things you see.

Thanks! I may have burned the dark areas in Photoshop in order to get them pitch black, but I can't remember because it was a long time ago

Have you ever heard about the Not Mindlessly Spamming the Internet? I knew just by listening to Common Sense that there is amazing stuff about it.
