Recovering

Haven't been too great this week  so sorry if responses to personal messages and that has ben a bit sluggish but I've been coughing my guts up and sneezing somewhat with irritated eyes so really apart freeling off I couldn't look at the screen much.

I did wrap up as I needed to do a lens test before submitting feedback as the one I bought with the Nikon as a kit didn't really fit that well into what normally do needing to cover more moderate telephoto to avoid needing to change lenses over most of the time and I felt the original lacked contrast.

It might be being spoilt with a Minolta film system with marque fixed length lenses that I grew up first  my standards tend to be rather high and I didn't care for anything that that lacks that systems simplicity but it was time to put that right as blogging was what drove to digital photography having bypassed the whole auto focusing slr film era totally.

Anyway I did go out for shortish hike well wrapped up and took that picture that apart from a touch of straighting up has otherwise not been processed and that was more like it.

It proved to be an easier lens to focus by hand on.
