This is still one of my favourite shots, taken nearly 6 years ago in my garden, just days after receiving the FA 1.8/77 limited (here on a K5)

Thanks for your kind comment!

I think Tokyo is a very "photogenic" city, many building have very interesting architectural details - fun to try to capture these.
When I took this shot I was on my way back from our local sales office to my hotel. I only had the 85mm lens with me and had to focus (:lol:) on the details, not on the whole scenery. To me this part of the skyscraper looked like there was a cut in the building, quite irritating at first.
The following shot shows that part of the building from a different angle.
Unfortunately I don't have a wide-angle shot to show the complete building

Many thanks for your comment. I agree that in the B&W version the shortcomings of the composition are less obvious.
Now I have a good reason to go back on my motorbike, drive to Sicily and improve the shot:)!

Thanks again,

Well, just a few commenst:
The Q display is not very good for manual focussing, IMO.
Therefor I'm using something like this LCD Viewfinder V1 Displaylupe Sucher Augenmuschel für alle 3 " Zoll Kameras Foto | eBay which significantly improves the chances to nail focus.
You also need to keep in mind that with "long lenses" like the 90mm Tamron or the FA 1.8/77 limited, which I also use with my Q7, you need a short exposure time.
On the Q7 the 90mm Tamron gives you the FOV roughly like a 400mm lens on FF. Unfortunately you will have to select fairly high ISO settings when you want to shot for example with 1/400th (the shot I have posted was shot @ 1/800th) But I prefer a non-blurred but somewhat "grainy" shot over a blurred shot at low ISO.
Hope this makes sense.
