Haven't started any LBA post for quite a while, guess my LBA has been well controlled ;)

After seeing some excellent photos by this new DA35 macro lens, I couldn't help but got my hands on one. What a beauty! If put an aperture ring on this lens, and remove its green ring, it can be easily mistaken as a black FA77 (similar size, shape, design ...) :D

The smooth MF w/ QuickShift, full metal built, built-in lens hood, FREE design, 14cm minimum focus distance ... I'm sure I forgot something here.


Just some quick and dirty testing shots. Hope you enjoy viewing. All taken by K20D+DA35 in JPG.
