Kumpul bareng anak-anak LM Jogja di warung Purawisata Yogyakarta.
Saya datang telat,  sudah cukup rame. Disambut dengan hangat oleh teman-teman.
Foto berikut bukan jepretan saya. Tapi menggunakan kamera saya, entah siapa dan apa lensanya.

Accessories & bokeh

Last night I played with my wife's accessories.
Sony NEX combined with, Yashica ML 55/1,2, Volna 9, Kiron 105, FD 55/1,2 ssc, and FD 35/2 ssc.
Some with flash, some without flash. Wide open and one @f5,6 specially volna 9 for star bokeh.

                  Closest distance;      Filter

Yashica ML 55/1,2

Got it in ugly condition, paint loss everywhere and little front coating loss too.

Why I bought it too? itsn't cheap anyway.

'coz the color produce by this lens is incredible. Its better than zuiko, fd ssc or nikon (55/50 f1,2)

Kiron 105/2,8 MACRO

I read about this lens for long time, while I was searching for good price.
About a month ago my friend offered me to collected money to bought some lenses. Good news, this lens was included. The lens arrived 2 days ago in excellent condition. But I sold my Canon EOS.
Well doing macro with Sony NEX isn't easy, specially with this tele. And I don't have time now to make a good picture. So it will be continued...

Kiron merupakan produsen lensa kelas atas di jamannya. Saya baca di literatur internet di link bawah ini, mereka memberikan jaminan 5 tahun untuk lensa!
