Thanks guys!

I took all these on Boxing Day,  basically these stations are only busy during working days, especially Canary Wharf. There's still some people every now and then so I have to wait awhile to get a totally empty shot.

I considered to include people especially for Canary Wharf for some added sense of perspective, but it's not everyday you can get an empty shot of that spot, I can come back anytime for people biggrin.gif

Empty, i like the way you took these photos, very nice smile.gif

anybody can recommend a nice messenger/sling vintage looking bag that doesn't shout "camera bag"? would be nice if it can fit a7ii + batis 85 + zeiss 35

I am using Crumpler Haven Insert which can store A7II with a lens attached and 2 additional lens. Then drop into any of my bag.

I'm not sure whether you can get these in Malaysia, but try looking at ONA and Billingham

I'm personally using ONA Brixton

would it be a loss to myself if I don't get a single Sony glass at all? LOL Because I favor Canon lens more. LOL No idea why. But maybe in the future I'll invest in some of the Zeiss lenses. Which ones should i take?

However, as we all know, slapping the adapters slow down the AF quite a lot. So actually, I wouldn't have a problem getting Zeiss lens for its autofocus capabilities since it's native to its body as you what's compared to the random AF hunting that even God can't predict. I was actually looking at the 35mm tbh. Maybe I'll drop by Sony to see if they have the 55mm to test out. I tried out the 35mm with the A7SII a few weeks ago. I loved it.

Sony 35mm f1.4 or 2.8?

35mm f1.4 is like huge tanker.

55mm f1.8 AF is blazing fast and accurate, tact sharp.
With the wide focus zone + continuous AF, AF tracking with moving object is much easier.

Unless you are shooting all still image, then you will not enjoy the features above.

898USD + 74USD + 14USD = 986USD. around 4K ish. Hopefully dont get taxed loh.
Well, i couldnt find a local retailer that has the A7 or the A7S in stock. YL didnt have stock anymore i think. I was lazy to find others in malaysia. I understand it's 3099 for a new one here but whatever la. Plus I'm not in Malaysia now too. It's out of stock everywhere in Melbourne too. them china people took them all. I just saw this china guy sapu the A7SII, A7II and A7RII. Took 2 each. Not sure for personal use or for resale haha.

Based on the value, 99% got GST 6% and need to pay disbursement fee.

quite expensive for the A7, cause i got mine in front of Digital Mall for RM3200 only + Free original sony battery + 16gb memory card.

Pretty lucky for me to grab the last unit.

And there is no international warranty from BHphoto

Hi guys would like to ask for comments on portable pocket printers. Anyone here using? I am actually looking for one for travel use and also for my gf's traveler's notebook. I saw this LG model but it seems like the 2013 model. Anyone knows of other brand that can intro?

Get the Fujifilm Instax Print, the paper supply is more common and easy to find. LG is using their proprietary paper.

Ohhhh yea... Hello my new standard lens.

Hopefully it's usable wide open AND not too expensive though. Knowing Sigma, it should be both.

Also knowing Sigma... it would prolly render cool and flare like the bloody Sun but considering we're not actually drowning in f/1.4 lenses right now I'll take what I can get lol.

Estimated US$500

The new Sigma 30 f/1.40 is tempting for sure but I've had bad  experience with Sigma's notorious focusing issues. I remember their 30mm ART lens launched few years ago still had the issue.

Hopefully the issue isn't there this time round.

That's my point of view as well, i have lost fate with Sigma lens, i owned several Sigma Lens in the past during Nikon DSLR time, all having back or front focusing issue.
