Originally posted by NZ_Ross Really nice up at Tekapo today, sun was shining, the wind was cold, but lots of fun was had in the snow. These images were all taken with the 77 Limited. A couple showing the snow around Tekapo, and a couple of my youngest, all dressed up for the snow, then making a snow angel.
Never been at Tekapo when it's been snowing, although some day I might make it.
It's been getting chilly up the top of the island, with some snow on the higher peaks, but not much yet.

Speaking of family, and playing with new toys, here's one of my efforts with the FA 35/2.0 AL
Seeing there isn't a weather sealed, quick shift, non-screw drive version I'm very happy with this. Some of the DA lenses at this focal length do have quick shift, but still don't have weather sealing, are slower, APS-C and are also screw drive, so I think this is probably the pick of the 35mm primes.
Turns out for a walk around prime to be better than the FA 50/1.4 on APS-C as although both are sharp, this includes a hood, and this is a better focal length to do both portraits and landscapes with just one lens.
