Hi guys, here are some photos I took during a RF meeting with the Singapore crowd during the Thaipusam Hindu festival last January. We had to meet at 3am:eek:!

B&W Set (HERE) - All photos in this set were taken with a Bessa R2S and w-Nikkor C 35mm f1.8 on Neopan 400 and Ilford Delta 3200, both at ISO1600.

Colour Set (HERE) - All photos in this set were taken with a M6TTL and Zeiss C-Sonnar 50mm f1.5 or CV Nokton 35mm f1.4 SC on Fuji Provia 400X at ISO800 or ISO1600

It was quite a challenge to shoot all my colour photos with slides but I think they came up ok. I am especially please to see how Provia 400X behaves when pushed to ISO800 and ISO1600.

Your comments are much appreciated.

I hope you don't mind the borders, I could not be bothered cropping every single frame...

Hahaha... D700 + Zeiss Planar 85/1.4ZF

I don't think I need the M8 anymore, I am seriously considering selling it (as well as the Nokton 50/1.1), it just can't compete against the D700 (especially with Zeiss lenses) and I don't need 2 digital cameras.

I am thinking of buying a third Zeiss lens for the D700 but I can't decide between the Distagon 28/2 ZF or the 25/2.8 ZF. What do you think?

I already have the Planar 50/1.4 ZF and the Planar 85/1.4 ZF.
 
Hi everyone, I didn't know there is such a thread exist.

SLR finally wins? I'll take the 28/2, one more stop to go.

Be good in KL.

I didn't know you'd picked up a D700, Max! I haven't ever shot the M8, but the first time I had the D700 in my hands - at the press conference in Tokyo in July 2008, which I stumbled into - I was amazed - especially with the high ISO capabilities. I have been happily shooting it now for almost a year and the results are staggering. I use all my old manual focus Nikkor lenses and am very pleased. But it is a monster to lug around!
