What better way to get a fresh view than to play with a new lens?
I’ve been working with my FujiFilm X-T1 mirror-less digital camera for nearly two years and it has proven to be an excellent tool.
The other day I visited Allen’s Camera in Levittown, Pennsylvania where I bought a Fujinon f2.0 90mm lens. I call this my ‘fast 90’ because of its relatively large aperture size for its length.
In the early 1990s, I routinely worked with a Nikon f1.8 105mm lens, and made thousands of Kodachrome slides with it.
Among the advantages of a ‘fast lens’ is the ability to work with shorter shutter speeds.
Where my 18-135mm zoom lens has a maximum aperture of f5.6, the ‘Fast 90’ is a full three stops faster. The difference is f5.6 at 1/125 versus f2.0 at 1/1000 working at ISO 200 on an overcast morning
I made this selection of images on the morning I bought the lens. Stayed tuned for more results later!
Very nice shots – I look forward to seeing more as you get a handle on what you like to do with the new lens!
