lenses

Tokyo, 2008.06.06

Tonight I was pissed off with the world after work, and had to go for a long walk. Strangely, that took me to two camera stores. At one of them I spotted a lens which would be an upgrade to one of my current lenses. It was only $100. I expect I'll be able to buy one online sooner or later for about $40, so I din't pick it up (and, the current lens is functioning just fine, if unremarkably).

At that same store, I saw two copies of my very favourite lens. One was $126, the other $157. I'm seriously thinking of going back to buy one of them. It's the Pentax lens that simply excels well beyond any other lens I've used. Hmmmmmm.
