The challenge – stranger #3

Today I did not even plan for shooting the next stranger. I just wanted to pick up the electronic viewfinder for my Nex-5n. I was so amazed with the one of the Nex-7 so that I was clear when I returned it that I had to get the EVF for the Nex-5n. While it looks rather bad on the Nex-5n it works extremely well. Will review it soon.

So on the way back we passed these security guards and my wife told me that this would have been a great shot for my strangers project and challenged me. So I went back for a shot. One of the two felt a bit uncomfortable so that I really kept it brief. The other one was quite comfortable and actually moved the mic to the shoulder pad.

Leica store in Kuala Lumpur

Today I went to the Leica store in Kuala Lumpur right at KLCC for a little family reunion of my summicron with its brothers and sisters. This store is really amazing and so different from the typical photo/camera store: The most important thing is the picture. They only have a few showcases with the cameras and the lenses. The rest is a lot of pictures. *So much* better than the average photo store where you are completely overwhelmed with cameras, lenses, accesories etc.

Very funny story. When the guys in the shop saw that I had the summicron on a sony body they almost died and asked me *how* I could do such a thing *LOL*.
