Some characters I met there 🙂 - most taken with a Canon 50/1.2 that I picked up there from ChrisN - thanks Chris!!!

Ha! Nice shots Hung - the 50/1.2 is performing as promised - a little soft wide open!

That was a fun day, but boy was I hungry by 2:00pm. I was really pleased when that young fellow bought my spare Hasselblad - he'll have a great time with it. And a young woman was really pleased to take away the Polaroid passport photo camera for $10! It was good to see the mix of customers - a pretty clear split with either mostly old codgers (like me!) and youngsters, with just a few like Hung to fill in the gaps. 🙂

I've just finished playing with the OM1 with 50.18 lens that I bought: the lens has cleaned up nicely but the slow shutter speeds are ... reluctant! I might have to send it to Camtech for a good going over.

Great shots Hung. The 50 1.2 takes real ethereal sort of photos -- well suited to this shady camera gathering. Haha!
