i thought i was going to buy the beltpack or any of those filters first, but i bought a backup flash instead. lol.
well, it was a really good deal i must say. u won’t believe how much i got it for, including postage from johore. and the condition of it, almost new. it also still have around 6 months warranty. huhu.
so, what’s next?

just updated my wishlist page. one of the things that i’m surely will buy in this few months is a laptop for work. still undecided either to get a cheap netbook or spend lots of moolah for an MBP. was interested with vaio P, but i think that it is kinda overrated. lol.
all the other things in the list can wait, except ones listed under the sub-heading “photography”. as you can see from the list, i wish to get a dedicated macro lens, a backup flash (for my backup body), a beltpack and a few filters. to tell you the truth, i can sense the beltpack and filters coming pretty soon.
why just a macro lens? not a G or a Z? well, moolah is one of the main factors. but then, i’m just a hobbyist, not a pro. i shoot for my own pleasure, just for fun. i don’t shoot any events or any paid job (yet?). and most importantly, i don’t even know how to handle my gears properly.
right now, i’m still trying to improve my skills. by doing so, i believe i really need a macro lens so that i can complete my learning gears. other than that, i need to master wawa (uwa; 11-18mm), tasha (kit+tele; 18-250mm) and sofia (prime; 50mm). if and only if they can’t fulfill their purpose up to my requirement anymore, then i’ll have no choice except to upgrade them.
so, should i think of a name for my macro lens now?
