Camera in the Bag

Now, I am looking into a good MF landscape lens, since I visit Yosemite sometime during my trip to San Francisco in two weeks. I'm really eying a Super Takumar 28mm f/3.5 I've found on the Ebay, even though I already have the SMC DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens, which provides me with a 28 f/3.5 lens, I have found the Takumars truly attractive, with their silky focus and good looks (both optically and structurally).

Hope to have that lens soon....

Hopefully soon, I want to buy a S-M-C Takumar 50mm f/1.4 lens for my K100D, which will be several stops brighter at its most open aperture than my current 50mm lens, a SMC-M 50mm f/2 that came with my dad's K1000. I've gained a respect for Takumars, with their reputation for silky-smooth focusing, spot-on focus, and incredible bokeh. All-in-all, it's made me covet one for a long time now.

Also hopefully soon, or at least as soon as I can find the login info to my FTP account, I will start posting some more pictures, mainly of the wildflowers blooming all over my yard. (In two weeks there might start to be some from the San Francisco Bay area, too ;) )
