A long break! Yay!
Just got this marvelous lens today! Sharp and quick ;) Got it just before my trip to London, for a well deserved holiday. Aaaahh...I can feel the anticipation...no more patients, no more complaints, no more work...Just pure bliss and snap snap and snap.
Getting immersed in a new hobby costs lots of $$ unfortunately. Trial and error costs $$ too. Learning which lens is good and which is "not so good" and how to get the best bang for the buck unfortunately requires some initial investments. Mistakes can be costly. Reading reviews can be biased too. For every person who says A is good, and equal number say A is bad. Moral of the story : My old lens is for sale. Got poisoned...hahaha
Reminds me of the card game "Magic" which my good friend introduced me to when we were in university together. He got me a pack of starter pack and we got hooked playing. Alas, this particular game requires heavy investments, at least initially and I'm kinda reluctant to part with that amount of money for cards. Hey they are just cards! Anyway he had a pretty good career with the Magic game but I'm not sure if he's still into it. As for me, I just retired early. I understand some people are making big bucks from this game.
At least I'm sure I'll be happy with this lens for quite a while and it won't depreciate that much with time :)
And I feel I've been spending too much time with the computer and internet too. Time to take a break. No computers, no blogging, no internet for the next 2 weeks. Just backpacking with new lens and snap snap snap :)
Gotta pack soon
