Is Belmondo on vacation? We're bored...

[Tom W]

...and in our boredom, we tend to do silly things.

Like taking pictures of 50 mm lenses all gathered in a circle.

OK, I got the idea in another thread about FD lenses, so I thought I'd throw an FL lens in with the EF lenses and shoot a picture. Its a sweet piece of machinery, that FL. I don't think its superior photographically to the EF 50 f/1.4, but it is mechanically excellent.

YA someone better bring Belmondo back, I would like him to conduct more tests on 70-200mm f/2.8L IS lens with 2X TC against the 100-400mm f/4.5~5.6L IS. More photo sample please!

Regards,
Ferdinand.

Belmondo passed thru Indy on Wednesday night and spent the night in one of the oldest motels in town. His whereabouts now are unknown to concerned parties.

Why is it tourists never ask the locals for advice? LOL

No, don't leave the house. Do you know what is waiting for you out there?

My cat is bouncing off the walls doing wind sprints around the room trying to work off some stored-up energy after 4 days being couped up in the truck with Mrs. Belmondo and me. We're living on a diet of Pop Tarts and motel coffee, and I haven't seen my camera in almost a week, ....


At the risk of disturbing domestic tranquility, here's a photo from the front yard today:

Spring is indeed here. I hope it stays. :)

Belmondo, though he claims to be up to his neck in alligators, has been on perpetual vacation for at least 20 years now. And deservedly so. :lol:

You must be the king of resurrecting threads. How do you find these things?

Fact is, in this particular case, it's still quite relevant, as he's on vacation. And I'm happy for him and miss him.

Oh, as to where I find them, that's on a need to know basis, and if I tell you I'll have to ........... ;)
