Terrible June

So far, June has been a terrible month. Probably one of the most terrible Junes I have ever gone through. Family issues and then a very sudden and shocking leave of my friend. Huh...That's why I don't have much time and mood to update the site.

Anyways, life must go on.

Last time, I talked about my feeling on the 50mm F2 Macro. It's stunning and truly a very good choice of 50mm lens.

Let's move on.

I can't recall whether I got the wide angle 21mm F2 first or the following F2 lenses first.

Probably, I got these first.

90mm F2 Macro and 100mm F2 ED.

I haven't tried too many macro lenses but the two OM macro lenses I have are both stunning.

The 90mm F2 Macro is very very sharp, you can get lots of sample photos of it. The only problem that bugs me is that the long focus throw. My copy wasn't very smooth at the beginning but then after some CLA, it felt much better.

The 100mm F2 ED, again a very great lens. It's as sharp as the 90mm F2 Macro and gives very beautiful bokeh. Equally long focus throw is a bit of a problem but with such a beautiful lens, how could I hate it?

This was taken by the 90mm F2 Macro on OMD EM5 Mk I shot handheld. Very sharp lens.

There's a very tiny coating mark on one of the internal elements, but it's one of the cleanest copies I have come across so far.

Gonna update with some shots taken by these gems later.
