こんばんは。How’s it going?

Today’s photos were taken with my second-favorite camera/lens combination that I own: Sony 35mm f/1.8 on my Sony a77. But really, it’s about the lens. That wide-open aperture produces some lovely bokeh, and even the chromatic aberration is kind of pleasing to look at.

The 35mm lens is relatively inexpensive (~$200 brand new), light, and very sharp when stopped down a bit. I love it.

I say it’s my second-favorite camera/lens combination because my Fujifilm X100T is still my favorite. It’s the perfect size for me. While the Sony SLT/lens has killer performance, it’s too big to carry every day. Still, it is a lot of fun!

  1. I was actually wondering hopw many of my photography contacts were still using their “bigger” cameras. The x100T is my favorite right now but I often find myself drawn back to wanting to use a SLR. I did buy a Sony x3000 (action cam) to try something new.

    1. The biggie camera is used for video, super-wide angle, and then bokeh-ful shots. 🙂 But the X100T is with me always.

      Waiting for an x3000 review on your blog!
