Happy New Year

Today marks the New Year in certain calendars and for many, the most important holiday of the year. I headed down to Chinatown a bit earlier to see the celebrations.

I haven’t yet reviewed this old lens produced between 1973 and 1975, but I’ve put up a few photos from it before. It’s by no means perfect, but in conditions like this, it really shines.

The EXIF on these last 3 photos lies. It says 135mm f/2.8, as the lens, but I was in a rush when I swapped these non-cpu lenses, and didn’t change the camera settings, so it recorded the wrong thing.
