City Icon stuffed by Pentax Da* 55mm f1.4 SDM

It has been a long while since my last update. Work has been horrendous and my weekend shooting is now limited.

My new lens Pentax Da* 55mm f1.4 SDM is really a gem. I love the colour, contrast and the resolution!

Excellent addition

The graffiti tends to be a bulletin board for a small part of community

Stunned by Olympus ZD 50mm f2 Macro

This lens is so sharp that her skin creases are visible in the original image!

The bokeh was not rendered well at all but the colour and skin texture from this lens is truely scary!

Refreshing water by Voigtlander Nokton 58mm f1.4 SL II

Long exposure using this wonderful lens. Now people are busy selling this lens on ebay. I just do not know why people are buying this lens in a rush without noticing the beauty of this prime.

1. It is very sharp. Crispy sharp with that "feel" of clarity when aperture is above f2.8

2. The colour is sooooo rich wide open. Even better than stopping down to f8

3. The foreground bokeh turns out less problematic than background bokeh but its ability to blurr in most situation is stunning.

4. This lens works like a treat at night. Very good colour rendition and sharpness.

Porcelain doll by Olympus ZD 50mm f2 Macro

This lens Olympus ZD 50mm f2 macro is an extremely sharp lens with sharp corner from one to another. The lens itself is small, light and compact. Yet, made of plastic...

The colour is seriously rich on kodak sensor. Autofocus is not reliable as I am using Olympus E520 body. However, this lens is not that bad in rendering bokeh either. Just quite a significant noise in the background...

Little Collins Lane by Leica 50mm f2 Summicron R

The place is not to be visited in the evening. Yet I did. I was almost robbed in the alley where there were skinheads walking around. Thank God that there were some beautifully dressed women walking by who took the attention away from me. It is good to be ugly sometimes...
