I love films!! I would shoot film 100% of the time if I could but sometimes digital is needed especially in very low light. Not to mention that film processing and scanning cost so much :(

Favorite film of the moment: Fujifilm Pro 400H



My gears:

- Canon EOS 30
My primary workhorse as I tend to do films a lot nowadays.

- Canon EOS 5D Mark II
My workhouse when the light goes down. Despite the occasional focus issue, a fantastic camera with awesome image quality. This cam can see in the dark better than my eyes, no regret!

- Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 L USM
This is my everyday lens, still learning to master the focal length as I used to own the 35mm f1.4 which I love for street and photo-journalistic work. Nowadays I tend to do more portraiture work which the 50mm is much better.

- Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0 L USM
This will be used 10% of the time, as I love wide angle lenses too for doing landscape and covering events up close.

- Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM
For the days when I do animal photography, compressed landscape, or covering events. Seldom used now but I refuse to sell it as it's such an awesome lens, razor sharp.

- Ricoh GR Digital II
For the casual days when I don't feel like bringing the heavy SLR out. This is quite a specialist camera, not for everybody but I love it. In fact, until recently, I've taken more pix with this cam than with my SLR.

- Ricoh GR1v
I got this film camera and was blown away by GR lens quality. This was the camera that got me into buying the GR Digital. I often bring these two cams out together.

- Yashica Electro 35 GTN
The only rangefinder I got, great quality but I'm not used to the focusing hehe.

- Yashica MAT 124G
Hmm I'm still learning this, the only medium format cam that I have - so far hehe.



My wishlist:
- Canon EF 85mm f/1.2 L II USM
- Gitzo Traveler 6X GT1540T
- Contax 645 AF with 80mm f/2.8
- Contax T3

    "A really talented photographer who manages to capture my attention everytime.

    I'm sick with jealousy and envy that he can see the beauty in the mudane stuff.... It's so irritating that I feel like smacking him but I can no longer see his beautiful pictures with very unique perspectives... :)

    Keep it up! :)"
