Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f1.5 M Aspherical Review

It takes almost 6 months to get my 50mm lens for my M240. Since the Leica 50mm Summilux ASPH was out my budget, and I need want a fast lens,  my choices were downed to Zeiss 50 Sonnar T F/1.5 and Voigtlander Nokton 50mm F/1.5 ASPH. I like the Sonnar, but it suffers from the well known focus shift Issue, so that my final choice is the Voigtlander.

Ping Chau 平洲

Me and Grace spent our last weekend on Ping Chau, a small island nearby the Lantau. The weather was nice and we took the trail to the mountain top.

Night in Grey Scale

Since my work is packed, I need more time to finish my review regarded on the M240.

Sunset

The sky was the best I had seen in last 3 months.

Visiting the green at Pui O 貝澳

  

Living in a crowded city, I pass through skyscrapers rather than any green in my daily life. I was so glad that I have a chance to have a fresh breathe at the Lantau Island during the weekend with my girlfriend Grace.

Fuji 18mm review

I have brought a used Fuji 18mm F/2 R despite from the mixed bag reviews among the Internet. The reason is I need a small 28mm full frame equivalent FOV for my street work and the 18mm F/2 lens is the only choice and glad that I made the purchase.

Fuji X-E1 review with Firmware 2.0

One of the reason I sold my Voigtlander 25mm F/0.95 was the cost, it is such an expensive lens for the M43 format. However, I just can't lived without the 50mm equivalent focal length. Instead of buying the Panasonic Leica 25mm F/1.4 lens, I got into another camera and lens combo; Fuji X-E1 with 35mm F/1.4 R. Since Fuji X is using APSC with 1.5x crop sensor, 35mm will become 52mm equivalent. You may ask why I don't go for the Pana Leica 25 and decided to go for another camera system, the reason is I want to bring 2 cameras, one 35mm and one 50mm together for the longer shooting section. 

The X-E1 with 35mm is around the size of the OMD so they are both compact enough to fit in my bag together.

Ping Shan Trail

I have done a photowalk with my shooting buddies Wilson Chong, Kelvin Hon and Ricky Rueda at Ping Shan Trail.

Even the weather was damn hot, we had such a good time.
