An old lens...

Just bought an old lens from Amir Tengkorok---One of the photographer who i respect had sold his Pentax Super Takumar 50mm f1.4 prime lens for me. Maybe most of the photographer take this kind of lens as an useless lens. But to me, it's quality is quite unrespected, just like my Tokina 135mm f2.8 prime lens. Here is a test shot with f1.4(never do any touchup)



Isn't it nice? Especially the bokeh...(ya, i know...is blur,is not the lens problem, is the noobie problem...) I think the price of the modern lens that can get this effect is much more costly. And of course! Maybe somebody should respect the old lenses. Money isn't everything sometimes, you know?!

Ok...back to this lens. After a shooting trial, i found that this lens is easy to handle at day time, when it comes to night shooting, the lens is quite emo, but of course, practises make perfect.

SO, for someone who might not be able to read this post, please don't always think that money is everything, and hope that you will be starting to understand shoot with heart, not your eyes...
