patolds · 06-28-2011, 02:38 AM

You're kidding!

It's been a bloody long road for me..Sep, Nov, 12 days of.. Jan Mar-Jun! I'm knackered! Sorry chaps!

Cheers Paddy

PS I'll be using my first bought lense (~30 years ago), Hanimex 28-200mm f/3.5-5.6 Macro! Worked well on the k-1000 and has been in mothballs for a while!

Nar! just kidding...or am I?

Nope, it's the old horses that are knackered, you and I are buggered!

I hope you can join, it won't be the same without you.

Wild horses could hold me back mate...just can't find the buggers!

Here horse! Here horse!

Did you all know...

Australian saltwater crocodiles can grow up to 20 feet...

But.....

They usually only have 4!

Cheers me again!

As the start of July will be pretty interesting I think I should try again. It's hard to be on track with posting, but making pictures every day is much easier

So count me in! :P

JeffJS · 06-28-2011, 07:42 AM

I think I'm going manual zoom for July. A35-105 f3.5. Best of all worlds and I've barely even Seen or used this lens since I bought it over a year ago, so let's see what it can do.

**blackcloudbrew** · 06-28-2011, 08:42 AM

I think I'm going with the DF 18-55WR kit lens. I haven't used it that much and as I may be doing more water sports in July, it might make a fun combo with the K5.

Good to see you back Bruce, I can't wait to see your always entertaining photos!

Thanks, Jack. I was thinking the same thing of you!

That's a lens I'm interested in, Jeff, so I'll be looking forward to see how that works out for you.

I was going to sit out July, but I'd like to use my never used 50mm f2 with a set of closeups. So, as a woman, I have the justified right to change my mind, count me in.

**jmschrei** · 06-28-2011, 05:24 PM

Good to see so many hanging in or returning to the fold for July. Each time I thought I would bail I change my mind but this time I am holding firm. I will watch from the sidelines and cheer you all on. Keep a seat warm for me, I will be back!

Bramela · 06-29-2011, 07:57 PM

Yes, I guess I am in too! A bit of a glutton for punishment I think.

I am going with a zoom lens this time. Having been restricted to 100mm all June got a bit trying at times.

I will go with a DA*16-50 I reckon. (Making it a little easier on myself. At least that is the plan, and not all plans work out.

)

Venturi · 06-29-2011, 10:09 PM

I'm in. Not sure which but definitely AF this month and probably a zoom, though there is a slight chance of going with the Tam90/2.8.

I've absolutely got to shoot some film this month too, so may mix some scans in here and there.

**jackassp** · 06-29-2011, 11:15 PM

Thanks to everyone who has joined for July, and good luck to all.

**patjp** · 06-29-2011, 11:58 PM

I think I am in again but can't decide what lens to use. Takumar 24mm, FA43, M 50 f4 and Tamron 90mm are in the running.

Well next month seems to be a lot of traveling for me, but I can post punch of pictures at once can't I. So I'd like to join too. Haven't decided yet with which one. Maybe Helios 44M, or old really cheapo and not so great quality cosina cosinon 28/2.8, just for fun!
