Reverse Marco with 85mm + 50mm

Was trying out a cheap and nifty way to do marco with a 85mm and 50mm lens.
I realised how tough it is to focus, you have to move the lens physical to change the
distance between it and the subject in order to focus.

The DOF is also very shallow, also add to the difficulty in focusing.
You will need lots of light on the subject, and also use as small an aperture as you can.

And also, you need to be very close to the object you can shooting, about 5 cm.

Guess what is this?

See, almost nothing is in focus.

Fort Canning 25th April

Just posting some pictures I took yesterday afternoon at Fort Canning.
I went there before going to the Outdoor Theatre for Rocking The Region.

Sigma 200-500 f2.8

The Sigzilla
Uses for the lens-
Wildlife-protect yourself from angry lions,
Sports- whack that *$@# blind referee
Win the 'whose is bigger' argument anytime of the day,
until the other guy bring out his Canon Ef 1200mm f5.6L. (will show it in another post.)

They ship lens in weapons crate now!...lol

One round away.
This lens weigh about 16 kg.

Bubble Man

There is a bubble man coming out of Gen's head.
The masterpiece of Gen and Wei Meng.
Guess this is what boredom can do to you.

New lens= low light lineup complete

Got myself a 50mm f1.8. Guess my lineup for low light shooting is completed.
At least until i can afford a 50mm f1.4. Or strike TOTO, then buy a 135mm f2.0 L lens.
Neverending story.
