OK; it’s official. I have to squint real hard if I want to read the viewfinder’s information display now. !@#!@#! We’re gonna be heading out later in the afternoon to check out the new Punggol waterfront area that our friends
I’ve blogged about the 70-200mm f2.8 lens range several times now on this blog and how this lens type is considered a staple for any serious photography enthusiast. The original party manufacturers manufacture these very complex lens to high specifications,

The first day of the lunar new year didn’t go well. Hannah cried at home before we headed to our family home, cried some more there and in fact every time we tried to get her to sit together for
