Cape Town looks like a pretty place. Great photos!

*sigh*. You give me the the homesickness.
It's a bank-holiday weekend in spring/summer here in London. Which of course means lousy wet English-style weather

Oh my, sigh.

I use the following:

• Nikon 50mm f/1.8 (cheap, but sharp and fast! Best value lens ever)
• Nikon micro-nikkor 60mm f/2.8 (macro lens - also extremely sharp even wide open. Nice bokeh)
• Nikon 85mm f/2.0 (manual focus from the 1970s.. silky smooth focus control, fast aperture, and practically free on ebay)
• Nikon 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5 (kit lens, came with my older D70. Not amazingly great sharpness, but it's alright. I use it because I have a bunch of filters that fit its weird 67mm size, and because I don't have anything else that covers the wide end of the range. I want to replace it with the 16-50mm f/2.8 Tokina eventually.)
• Tokina 80-200 f/2.8 (a hefty, fast telephoto zoom. Nice manual focus; autofocus could be a bit faster. f/2.8 is acceptable, but f/4.0 is a bit sharper.)
