鏡頭狀況

• 前後鏡片乾淨無刮傷。輕微入塵 (老鏡幾乎都會有)

• 鏡頭外觀不錯，有八成新以上。

• 光圈對焦阻尼皆順暢，功能正常。

• 後鏡有一點點的擦拭痕跡，不影響拍攝畫質 (下方有實際拍攝照片)。

• 葉片有點滲油痕跡，但不影響拍攝功能

實際拍攝感想

個人覺得這是顆銳利的鏡頭。光圈 f1.4 時有夢幻的感覺，大部分的手動對焦老鏡本來就是如此。你也可以利用這種"特效"來製造 柔和(自動修膚)的人像照。

從 f2.0 這顆 Auto Chinon 就開始展現它的銳利度了。 f2.8 以上更不用說，不怕不夠銳利，只怕你對不到焦。但用這顆鏡來手動對焦其實也蠻順暢的，而且用手動對焦拍照有種特別的成就感，也會讓你對每一張成功的照片更有 personal feeling.以下是實際拍攝結果，從公仔，人像，鳥，食物等通通可以拍出我很滿意的照片! 銳利度, 散景(bokeh), 細節 通通由照片來說話!

Tick Tock Learning Cycle

Borrowed from Intel release schedule style, I think it's pretty suitable for my CG learning behaviour.

Tick : develop new tools and improve existing ones based on current experience of 3D creation process.

one of my tool's UI

Tock: Using existing tools to improve work results, and explore some new possibilities.

 Lightning from FFXIII

Now I need to stick a schedule of each cycle. Three-month for each tick or tock, maybe?

Mikel Arteta : Denilson on Steroid !

Really like this lad's performance so far. His current role I reckon is more like Denilson type, a ball distributor to stabilize midfield and start an attack, but he does that better than Denilson because of his mobility, range of passing, and reliabilty. He also defends much better.

Here's some clips of recent performances :







A lot of people comparing him to Cesc, but they're quit different, frankly. Cesc used to perform like that, but in recent years he has worked up another dimension in his play,notably more forward running and inventive passing ( lots of defense breaking passes). Obviously Cesc is a better player, but they play different roles so it's not fair to directly compared them.
