A Turk's cap lily, quite a dramatic flower actually.

The DFA* 50mm comes out, the DA*55 1.4 comes on sale for 499 CAD, less than 400 USD< actually cheaper than I paid for my broken FA 50. 1.7.

Of course, it's not what everyone is talking about, but, what the heck.

Following my usual practice I sat in front of the pos office and unwrapped the lens (sorry, no unboxing video) and took a few shots of the flower beds in front of the post office, a few more in my yard, and one at the Galeairy lake access point.

The ƒ1.4 shot that I actually preferred to the ƒ2 and ƒ5.6 images, a nice flat flower that doesn't need much DoF
