I lost faith on many things those days, including in ever getting F64 to ever fix my lens, so in the end I followed my my friend's advice and bought a new, better lens - even if I still disagree with her, you can't buy happiness with money... well, unless is an enormous sum, like 1,000,000€ or such...And if you know me, you know I'm following the principle "or la bal or la spital" (translation from Romanian: "either at the dance, or at the hospital") so I went for f/2.8 and a weight that will break my back. Middle way is not an option.
My biggest regret is losing the opportunity to use this gear to capture one of the most beautiful blue eyes I ever saw, every time my gear was incomplete, I missed the opportunity and tried to do the best with what I had available. Not what I wanted. I am sorry.

ReplyDeleteI'm glad you take this chance nic, and is obvious that there are some feelings going in this particular post... so I will take my chance to say something to (whoever is) "Crucified Countess", because I'm a woman and I think I can get this:
ReplyDeleteTo "Fata_Morgana": as woman, as human being; the first think you must do with your life is to live it on your own and stop annoying those who want the best for you. As my mother told me once "if you can make someone happy, then get the hell out"
don't mess the life of those who want to make you happy
tatica: i am sure you wanted to say "can't" :)
ReplyDeleteand probably i should investigate for ways people are unable to delete already posted comments, do they don't take their words back
...the devil is like a child, if you "do not take care of him" when "he will take care of you".
ReplyDelete...you have to be afraid of people who do not love cats.
i fail to see the cat corelation implied by the anonymous.
ReplyDeleteI got the Canon 24-105 IS f/4 L the day after you got this. are you going to Tempe? lens fight! :)
ReplyDelete(I considered the Canon 24-70 f/2.8, but it's not stabilized and if I ever move up to the 5d mkII, 70mm isn't much zoom).
@Adam: as I can see, no f/2.8 lens has stabilisation, one have to make the choice, IS or larger aperture... I want for the aperture :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think I am going to Tempe, don't have the money for that so without help I don't think I can afford (and I don't dare to ask for sponsorship as I expect developers to have priority)
