Like the other fast lens I&#8217;ve picked up for the m4\/3 system, depth of field is very shallow when shooting wide-open. It&#8217;s not too much of a worry when I&#8217;m shooting either of the two girls straight face-on, but it can be a real challenge if I&#8217;m off-angle by any degree. Color rendition seems very slightly less warm than the 14mm f2.5G but Ling at least likes its very natural color representation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18807\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18807\" style=\"width: 550px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18807\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/blog-2013-hannah-OMDA6159-coffeebean-greenwich-brunch-flickr.jpg\" alt=\"Mommy and Hannah.\" width=\"550\" height=\"367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/blog-2013-hannah-OMDA6159-coffeebean-greenwich-brunch-flickr.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/blog-2013-hannah-OMDA6159-coffeebean-greenwich-brunch-flickr-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18807\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mommy and Hannah.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18808\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18808\" style=\"width: 550px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18808\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/blog-2013-hannah-OMDA6238-coffeebean-greenwich-brunch-flickr.jpg\" alt=\"Her activity books are a wonderful means of occupying herself while the both of us have brunch.\" width=\"550\" height=\"367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/blog-2013-hannah-OMDA6238-coffeebean-greenwich-brunch-flickr.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/blog-2013-hannah-OMDA6238-coffeebean-greenwich-brunch-flickr-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18808\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Her activity books are a wonderful means of occupying herself while the both of us have brunch.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>More cute conversations with Hannah too. We were at Fairprice a few days ago when a middle-aged lady approached Ling at the sauces and condiments, asking &#8220;<strong>Auntie<\/strong> ar, can you tell me where the sesame oil is?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ling turned slightly off-color at being addressed &#8216;Auntie&#8217; (for our Ang Mo bud, the term is usually used respectfully for someone who&#8217;s <em>old<\/em>) but nonetheless helped the lady. But Hannah picked that up and for the rest of our grocery trip at the store, went: &#8220;AUNTIE!!!&#8221; at Ling LOL.<\/p>\n<p>And Hannah has been looking forward to her coming baby brother, due anytime from a week from now. When in the car, she had this to share when we asked how she was going to care for him.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>H<\/strong>: &#8220;I will take care of <span style=\"font-size: small;\">\u5f1f<\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\">\u5f1f (little brother). I will help put him to bed. I will help him go to the toilet. Yep. I will help him change change clothes. I will help him change diapers too. I will also buy him orange juice.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>We should have recorded those promises she made. With a big sister helper like this, why would we need parents.=)<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18813\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18813\" style=\"width: 550px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18813\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chekyang.com\/musings\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/blog-2013-hannah-OMDA6286-after-shower-flickr.jpg\" alt=\"Just after shower.
