Sony FE 28mm f2
Besides the 35mm primes, there’s another focal length that I really like for casual photography – and it’s 28mm. I didn’t own a 28mm prime during my Nikon DSLR days, but I had one such during over the 7 years

10 Days in Maldives 2019 – Equipment Comments
Equipment-wise, the Maldives trip turned out to be quite a varied experience: I bought just two lenses for the Sony A73 — the FE 24-105mm and Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 — and not unexpectedly, used the former far more than I
10 Days in Maldives – Day 10 – Olhuveli Beach & Spa Maldives
Before we began planning for our Maldives trip, a stay at a water villa at an all-inclusive private island was the bucket list item. So, in a sense, the planning for our 10 day trip was first largely centered around
10 Days in Maldives – Day 09 – Olhuveli by Sunrise
The third in my series of posts covering Olhuveli by day, night, and finally — at sunrise. The lightweight Sirui T-024X Carbon Fiber Tripod and C-10S Ball Head was carted along for this Maldives trip. And after two earlier attempts
10 Days in Maldives – Day 08 – Olhuveli by Night
A companion pictorial blog post to Olhuveli by Day, and this time when the sun sets. Our Ang Mo bud quipped that he was half-expecting a bunch of very drunk Aussies to show up at any time. Fortunately, that never
10 Days in Maldives – Day 08 – Olhuveli by Day
It was literally impossible to take a bad picture at the Olhuveli Beach & Spa Maldives. A collection of pictures from our point of arrival and across the four days we stayed at the property. I’ll do a longer commentary
10 Days in Maldives – Day 07 – Huraa Island
Truth to tell, prior to departure, I did have some trepidation about the length of time we’d be spending on a local island, and that we’d be staying in a guest house. The touristy private island resorts, where we’d be
10 Days in Maldives – Day 04 – Sand Bank
Some of the most stunning pictures one can get out of a Maldives trip would be ones taken on sand banks. These are tiny little islands with white sand, and little else – no vegetation, no shrubbery and tree cover.
10 Days in Maldives – Day 03 – Guest Beach @ Huraa
Given the various challenges our party of noob snorkelers experienced on Day 2 – including Peter who didn’t want to give it another go – our host @ The Sunrise Huraa, Sameer, proposed that we go to an easier location
Samyang AF 35mm f/1.4 FE Lens – Part 2
Continued from the previous post! I placed an order with B&H Photo Video for the Samyang lens on the 9 Jan WEDS afternoon, and it was delivered by DHL Express on 12 Jan SAT afternoon – two days ahead of
Samyang AF 35mm f/1.4 FE Lens – Part 1
My first lens acquisition for 2019! Thankfully again it’s not an impulse buy, but a considered one, and also for my favorite prime focal length too: 35mm. One of the nicest things about the Sony Alpha mirrorless cameras is the
Pictures @ 35mms
While writing my 2018 reflections on the Sony FE System last week, I realised that my preference for primes against zoom lenses have changed alongside my change of camera system. Specifically, whilst I was on m4/3 cameras, I far preferred
