Its an D80. the crop factor is about 1,5 i guess. But never mind, it worked as a charm, if thats the rigth ekspression

Unfortunately this effect won’t be perfect unless you have a lens with the possibility of an F-stop below f2.8.

F5.6 like you use on your lens gives a too deep depth of field. And that creates the vignetting.

Hey erik,
i manage to get the light to the shape that i want but unfortunately, there’s still a vignetting around the image instead of them coming out clean. i’m using a 18-55mm standard kit lens and i’ve set it to 55m f/5.6. is there anyway that you could help me with this?
