This lens is a hidden gem. Manufactured by Samyang, the Korean manufacturer (sold under the name Rokinon in the US), this lens is a manual focus lens delivering amazing pictures and excellent corner to corner sharpness even fully open (1.4). A remarkable performance for the price.

Chinatown

This is a simple pic shot with a Nikon D7000 in NYC (Chinatown) and post-processed with a tool called Flare on a Macbook, to give that old photo look. I also did some cross color processing to alter the colors in this one.

An interesting mood... a composition found during a family visit. I like the effect in the dark. The technicalities: Nikon D7000 DX body with the Tamron 17-50 2.8 lens, the result has been converted with Lightroom 3.4 (BW conversion and curve adjustment to enhance contrast and clarity)

Medium format

for the real afficionados, an old (well not that old) Medium Format Pentax camera, with all the modern technology you can dream of in a standard film camera (AF, exposure compensation, A, S, P priority modes, excellent viewfinder. Only drawback (compared to a Hasselblad for instance) is that the backs (magazines) cannot be exchanged in the middle of a film roll.
