AOCO 1919_101 Years
Posted By: Septrain, 11-01-2020, 07:08 PM

November 2020 is Pentax 101 years.

To commemorate the event, a small group of die-hard Pentaxians in Singapore came with the idea of AOCO 1919 and Pentax 101 Polo Ts & caps for personal wear.

We had a photo outing on Nov 1, 2020 & pleased to share the photos.

Tilting the camera also has sense when you have a fish eye lens mounted (that said obviously this lens isn't one).

Still I did get the joke myself, and found it funny!

MZ-S & FA 80-200 with expired Fuji 200




Despite expired film, the film looked far better than digital.
Better lenses?

The FA*80-200 at f4.0 played a part. Can see it's grainy.
To share another pic shot by MZ-S+FA*300 with Fujifilm 400.

Yes, the film definitely look better, despite the K-1 is a full frame, I wondered how about the same lens on K-1.

I am impressed by the Mitakon on Fuji in low light situation, but the Pentax 1.4 have more definition here.
Hope the border open soon, it had been years since I last visited Singapore.

The ZY Mitakon 85/1.2 is a stepless aperture lens. Weighs in at 1.23kg though.

When it does and you do feel like visiting, let us know.
