Nikon F3/T with Voigtlander 20, Voigtlabder 40+macro and the Nikon 50f1.2. These are so beautiful. I thought I was decided to sell but all of a sudden the hesitation. If you havent had the chance to shoot these, youre really missing out on life. Really. The viewfinder is one of the best. It took me so long to buy all the accessories and now it seems to be no other choice but to let go. I hope I can let go when the time comes to send to a reseller. Urghhh... Im so busy I didnt have the time to shoot so many of my collection unlike last year. I think the xpan2 and m7 is more than enoigh. Now that M7 + elmarit 28 is so tempting to let go to. #camera #filmcamera #filmisnotdead #believeinfilm #shootfilm #nikon #nikonf3 #nikonf3/t #nikon50f12 #voigtlander #voigtlander20mm #voigtlander40mm

Contax T2 This guy will be on the market soon. My father used this on our one and only photowalk. I was emotional last time I wanted to let it go. This time I hope am sure of it. Someone should use it. What as waste. It had stayed in the dry cabinet for almost a year now. #contaxt2 #contax #camera #filmcamera #filmisnotdead #believeinfilm #shootfilm #zeisslens

My flavor of the month - The Ricoh GXR with M module People ignore change all the time and this is one such case. Ricoh has been known for street photography cameras and this is one of those proof. It is a bargain nowadays! Launched in 2009 I think, it was way ahead of its time. Now in 2017, it is a real bargain. Due to the price of the M8. I chose to try this instead as a backup camera to the M9. Both are so opposites so they compliment. I got 5 modules (sensor w lens) for 470us$ when a m4/3 lens cost the same. And, it's brand new with warranty. Cool. Im just enjoying my flavor or the month which I hope turns into a year. I hope all digital camera will have the snap feature because this is the best way to take pictures. AF may have some uses but it actually a bore to use. Get this if want a backup for leica m An intentional crop zoom of some sort Good bw pictures Street photography or fast snaps A bargain in 2017 A camera w no AA filter Make flares Your 1st leica lens experience #ricoh #ricohgxr #ricohgxrm #voigtlander #voigtlander35f14 #peakdesign #peakdesignstrap #camera #digitalphotography #cameraporn (at Parañaque)

Now playing Forever Young and Make you feel my love by Bob Dylan Miss papa. Almost a year now. I miss celebrating our small successes with him. We have been together from hardships to recovery to our simple definition of success. It would have been fun to have celebrated life further even just for a second. #vinyl #analogmusic #bobdylan #makeyoufeelmylove #foreveryoung #leica #LeicaM9 #50summilux #50summiluxblackchrome #summilux50blackchrome #summilux50 #nikon #nikond200 #tokina #tokina100mmmacro

Confused about the real 28 lux vs the Leica Q? No budget but wants that Leica look? This is how it looks like on the M9. The size of the 28 lux is the max you should have on the body. It starts to tilt downward pulling the body. I held thr noctilux and I know Ill keep it in the cabinet. It is too heavy. Now finally I have a Leica 50, I understand now what they say about its built. It is really something. If I compare the #zeiss #planar50zm the zeiss is like a toy. I love the zeiss 50 planar. Anyone confused about the #leicaq vs the summilux28? I was and I did decided on the lens but it was before holding the q. I like the specs and lightness of the q. The 28lux is heavy. My suggestions are -If you want to enter Leica for the first time and have the budget buy the q although believe me that youll be tempted to go the m way eventually. The q doesnt feel like the m. It is light. It feels more like a panasonic leica in my opinion. I say this in a good way because lugging around an m all day vs a q, youll surely feel the weight difference. AF helps a lot and being able to shoot MF when needed is very impt. -I have an #olympusem5 m1 and coming from an m body, the first thing I did was to buy a Leica designed panasonic made 25f1.4. After this, I bought the 15f1.7 and I know being a 28-50 prime user, it will fit me. If you dont have the budget, start with this and believe me, it is enough and it is a beauty to use. Used will cost you us $1000 only plus you have an option to buy the panasonic 100-400 leica designed for birding and sports. Cool! -If you.have saved up and have a Leica M body, do not hesitate and go the lens way. You need not even have to have the latest body and just buy one of the sony 7 series and you can do just about anything. Buy the #voigtlander v-me close focus adapter it has an infinity lock. #LeicaM9 #leica #50summilux #summilux50blackchrome #summilux50 #summilux #cameraporn #camerabrassing #28summiluxasph #28summilux #summilux28 #panasonic25f14 #panasonic15f17 #panasonic #voigtlandervme

#quiapochurch Devotees of the #blacknazarene are so many. People would kneel walk from the door to the altar praying. I cannot explain the feeling seeing them do this. My life has not been all easy. Yes I prayed Yes I look for signs Yes I did weep but never have I done this. I am very thankful that life had been good to our family. My dad's wish of having a happy family seems to be more intersting to me more and more. Happiness' definition varies from one person to another but with all the recent passing of so many tycoons only meant life is all but temporary. Material wealth is something that is to be left behind. It even causes family feuds that strains relationships for life. I look at my babies and Im so happy but I feel so selfish as I have brought them to a world full of unpleasant surprises. History can never judge us as they say because out of billions if people only a few are remembered and in a century fewer will be remembered what more after a thousand years. Mid life brings a lot of troubles as a person in early 40s I know that the next 20 years will pass very fast and dictate who I am to this world. I think I will live through it not knowing where Im headed which actually makes it interesting and worth living I guess. #Church #visitaiglesia #catholicchurch #sony #sonya7s #zeissplanar50zm #zeiss

Solemnity amid Tourism The pull of faith really is very important to humans. We still fear the unknown because there are more questions than answers being made everyday even by science. This is my opinion. #lungshantemple #olympus #olympusem5 #leica #panasonic15f17 #panasonic #taiwan

#lungshantemple When Taipei, this is my must go to temple. It is honestly full of emotion. I always see someone crying while praying. I myself while praying and teaching my daughter how to pray. Peace of mind Happy Family ... kong kong (my father who passed away last year) My tears just came... I miss him esp now that it is almost whole family who went Taiwan for the first time. This is his goto place at least 2-4x a year. #olympus #olympusem5 #leica #panasonic15f17 #panasonic #taiwan

The story goes "we don't want!". We ate in this restaurant. After we finished I notice their front was quite interesting. With this I try to take a picture, when they saw me they all suddenly turned right. I was laughing inside. But later on noticed the photo I took was reallt funny because of the story behind. #jiufenoldstreet #olympus #olympusem5 #leica #panasonic15f17 #panasonic #Taiwan

#kungfu This was a nice parade inside the national center of traditional arts in #Yilan It is important to try and keep these alive although I believe very expensive to build and maintain. Im sure far from the traditional considering they use #hoverboard at least they are trying. Great ideas for #diy #nationalcenteroftraditionalarts #taiwan #sony #sonya7s #sony28mmf2

#miniaturemuseum if #taiwan part 1 People are just so creative. If only we can assure ourselves that our time are used properly then we can actually make great things happen. These minatures are so detailed. It is beautiful. Using this #emount lens gives me mixed emotions. It can render nicely for its price but at the same time its AF is really shitty. It hunts and hunts and misfocuses. Im lucky to be really fond of manual focusing just about any lens. They should have just made a manual focus lens thats metal all around instead placing a junk focus mechanism on this one. The glass is worth it. #taipei #taiwan #sony #sonya7s #sony50f18 #museum #manualfocus

Big Cock. Yummy? Im not a cock guy but there should be no harm in trying? Ill assume this will have that sweet and sour taste. Quite yummy for some but not for everyone. This cock I believe is only available here in Taiwan. They should make some pussies too to cater not only on a niche but to all market segments. #taiwan #ximending #taipei #nightmarket #streetfood

#FullFrame or #M4/3 This is something of a question for enthusiast and professional #Photographer s. Personally after years of wanting m4/3 I saw a bargain #usedcamera and bought it. 'My goodness' is all I can say. I should have bought earlier. That DOF #depthoffield issue is nonsense. Why? It is because the #closestfocusdistance is so near as compared to some full frame. Yes it is near like macro almost. With the #camerabody so loaded with features, you cant go wrong. What people dont know is #12megapixels is enough for any use specially #socialmedia For me, an old #digitalcamera is enough. But, you have to buy a great lens. With a good prime glass, you can do anything. Im sorry Im a #leica fan boy. But, they really make good glass that has full of character. Confused? Character is the most important feature of a #lens It gives us that story with the right composition of course. To be honest, I feel that you can never go wrong with any #primelenses with a wide aperture like 2.8 max You just have to master how to use it. This is of course for wide to standard lenses. You also need to go for 0.7 and below closest focus distance. With ideas above and a good system like m4/3, it makes sense to really invest. Now with full frame 2x sized sensor I think the most important feature is it can shoot in 'lowerlight' But if again you decide to buy a f 0.95 or 1.2 glass in m4/3 system which is far cheaper than full frame then that solves you difference in stops. Anyway Im loving both system. As for me the photo is much more important. Im a gear whore since Im not yet cured with #gearacquisitionsyndrome Im now at a stage where I want to try the fastest glass available. In conclusion, you can never go wrong nowadays. Im so sleepy my rant if I can call this that way is so disorganize! #camera #leica
