I second that on the FA 50mm 1.4. Back when I bought my GX-10, I remember it going as low as £139 because it was being "discontinued".

One of the main reasons why I don't think I'll buy one anywhere over that price. LOL

Beautiful photos! Thanks for sharing.

I agree, it was really hectic at Chinatown, in effect it rid me of any enthusiasm. I did see another Pentax user (the only other one aside from us) and she was using the Stormtrooper (white K-r!).

Today I went to Chinatown in London with a friend and his family. Last year was quite a fun celebration, although tiring. This year? Well, it looks like I'm going to be missing next year's. There's just too many people!

My recommendation: Go to Chinatown anytime during Chinese New Year except for the last day of the celebration, unless you REALLY want to see the performances and the dragon dancing (while constantly being squashed by the amount of people there).

I didn't want to end the day on a sour note so decided to drop by the British Museum. Here are photos from today, most of them taken using the DA 35 2.4:

Some nice people by the "Dragon Rowing Boat"



Okay, I am not sure why this guy was holding that piece of bread for so long. Must be warm!



Right in the thick of it



A very tight crop here. Gotta love the kid's expression.

My friend taking a photo of me taking a photo of him. He's using a Tamron 17-35 2.8-4.5.



She had that frown 50 meters away from me. I wonder what happened.



Moving on to the next destination: Obligatory Tourist type shot within Tottenham Court Road station.

Thank you for looking! I was really hammered by the time I got home.

Hello everyone! Bumping the thread. Tamron 70-300 still available, delivered RMSD. Great condition. Need the funds to get that K5 grip from Jessops!

Welcome to the forums!

Whoah! What a beautiful photo. The arches! The arches!

Thanks for sharing. Here's to hoping we find a very specific reason for this issue.

Welcome to the forums! Looking forward to your photos!

I'm just going to support the ideas (crops) presented in the earlier threads. The photo itself is beautiful, but the upper right and lower right take out the balance of what could have been a more beautiful image.

I prefer the wide crop, but such a shame for that domineering tree.

Well done George, a very beautiful photo.
