好一段時間沒來
第一次遇見空無一人的情況
一進到前院 就被鄰近的阿伯嚇一跳~
氣氛好詭譎~因為沒有人!其實不應該這樣的
台中的藍天綠田~
回家途中 順到拍植物園
遇見外拍團~
麻豆草地上狂跑~攝影師狂追~~~宅宅宅

2天課程申請住宿
費用free,一人一間,配備如照片
簡單方便~
也有無線網路 btw當天測試連不上去
↑書桌 冷氣 洗手台 樣樣都有~~連蚊帳都準備好了..><
難得來 就來體驗一下新竹夜生活
交通工具:公車and雙腳
城隍廟夜市
去過一次~~吃份肉丸 味道還ok~或許是我在中心吃完晚餐的關係吧!
↑宿舍外觀~簡單不過了
久違的下午假期
來到台中望高寮上拍風景
這是今年第一次拍風景~
原先計畫看鹿港燈會 ~礙於時間關係及體力不支
只能停在台中大肚山上
這是很美~以往很少的機會會在傍晚時刻前來
在拍照的同時
許多情侶在旁摟摟抱抱的 感覺很"大學" 呵呵

Generally, zoom lenses within on these focal length are much easier to design without overcoming too much optical aberrations, they usually performs much better than lenses of shorter focal lengths. There are two versions of this lens being produced throughout its entire product cycle. The earlier version has a lens fastening ring in black plastic while later version was changed to a metal (Aluminum) lens mounting ring. It has a extra broad focusing ring which provides secure, firm focusing and zoom action. However, the lens has a few great designing elements to term it as a good zoom lens. It features a one touch zoom/focusing ring design which is very useful for telephotography; it has a constant aperture of f/3.5 which is equally favorable by many photographers.
The lens indeed balances very well when mounted on camera (especially with a motor drive attached). Optically, it never disappoint either, perhaps with NIC which has greatly contains internal reflection among the lens elements within, images produce are uniformly quite sharp for a zoom lens at all apertures and color fidelity is very stable. The lens exhibits a slightly higher contrast (for a zoom lens), where it also provides excellent depth of field scales (lines) which are brightly coloured to illustrate their curves while it zooms/focuses. Overall, since the lens was designed within a focal length generally very useful (and practical) for medium telephotography such as half length body portraiture, scenic/landscape to isolate a specific area of interest, family pictures and even a great choice for indoor studio photography. However, similar to other Series E lenses, the lens is not provided with a meter coupling prong and when use it with any Non-AI Nikon bodies, you have to be aware that it may not be able to provide proper open aperture metering guide. Another slight drawback is its rectangular grip for the aperture ring has a very strong, fragile plastic feel. |
As with any other medium telephoto lens you can find on the market, shooting portraits with aperture between f/8.0 and f/11 with flash, should produce excellent photographic results with this lens. Over the years, just like the shorter 36-72mm lens featured earlier, I noticed many of this zoom lens are also being used "in front of the curtain" at many of the One Hour Color Lab for taking passport or B/W ID photo). |
I am not here trying to upset some stomachs by making such a remark here. Actually, depending on your expectation and in what situation you are using them, most modern lenses are more than sufficient to generate an above average optical result - if you are very particular about factors such as resolving power etc...at every aperture it provides, then it is too unfortunate.
I remembered one of my good friend who has read that lens test and Photostat a copy for me. He was so convinced with the report and thought that was the one last good lens Nikon has ever produced and eventually bought one himself (I presumed there are many others just like him). I did borrowed the lens fro him, used it for quite a while and overall, I was quite happy with the results it generates. However, my experience with the lens made me concluded it was a good lens, but it is nothing near such 'legendary' quality as others claimed. |

Anyway, it is all right to use lens test as a buying guide, but I always discourage blind followers which may even mislead others to join in the buying queve. Come to think of it, if some form of media was being abused slightly with a different objective, manufacturers stand to gain the most. But personally, I would not think it was that bad as I would imagine that such things will happen because, generally, media operators usually maintain a high professionalism attitude in their works, it was only individual interpretation and lack of actual product knowledge that may twist such a thought. The best way to judge is to borrow a lens if you can, use it for your personal photography and determine if it is useful and practical for your kind of photography. Personally, the focal length the lens encompasses is more interesting (practical) - with an additional bonus it offers be able to work in at close to macro setting (1:5 magnification ratio). But if you try to pay a premium on a presumably ' legendary status' where the sellers demand it was, then just forget it. I would rather save my hard earned cash for something else.
Technical Highlights: * A versatile zoom lens offering focal lengths from medium long to a full 3X telephoto. * Focuses down to a close 1m (3.5 ft.) at all focal lengths; a magnification ratio of 1:5 is possible at the 150mm focal length. |
* Well-corrected aberrations as well as Nikon Integrated Coating provide high contrast at every focal length from wide open to completely stopped down. *Single (One-touch) focusing/zooming ring provides a more responsive operation. * Uses 52mm filters. *Stops down to f/32 for additional depth of field. *Excellent for candid, head-and-shoulder portraits, travel photography, and sports.
