I decided that it was time for a proper camera to capture the kids.  My iPhone appears to have over-processed the shit out of this photo of the photo-taking tool.

Let's see how deep we can go into Chinese lens recreations. After success with several Light Lens Lab models, and reading/watching too many reviews on this, just ordered the even cheaper Mandler (named after Walter Mandler, the Leica and IMAX lens designer) 35mm F2 “7 elements” based on the Leica Summicron 35mm Type IV (KOB). We'll see.

^^ Because it's a goddamn brilliant camera.  I got to shoot with a D4S at work for a bit but have too much Sony stuff at this point to ever practically think about another system.

Speaking of Sony, the A7V's 30fps is goddamn bonkers.  Sounds like a Gatling gun but allows for capturing some pretty great shots even in mediocre hands.

 

Edit - yes, that's Andrew with the glasses running the 800m today.
