DFA 100 WR Macro Handson Review

[flowerpot]

Is it? I thot it looks quite ugly. Squarish with an odd texture.

I see. Pardon my ignorance.

 

[hjbyeo]

it has 1 of the most beautiful hood around btw...

I wish the WR had something similar to the Voigtlander. Fully metal!

Sure, nothing to prevent you from getting one yourself. Only depends on who posts pictures with exif intact first.
Btw why you don't join us in the group outings? A lot of people want to meet you in person.

 

[scorpioh]

Haha. Serious ah? Yeah, never quite join outings - not my cup of tea. Nothing much of me to see also lah. Ha. Just a boring guy. But i had met with some of you before though.

 

[night86mare]

Get both ... :devil:

evil!!!!!!!!!!! :bsmilie:

But before I take the plunge I would like to know how does the lens extend out fully? Heard that the inner tube is plastic rather than metal?

Yup, should be plastic. Let me check when I get back home. It's not a LIMITED lens, scorpioh. And if it's all metal, it'll be so heavy! With the hood on, you can't really see the lens extending out when focusing.

Your crystal ball is very accurate.

Your crystal ball is very accurate.

Almost bought one for you. But heard Emjay is gonna bring the lens in very soon, and the price will be very attractive. Let's wait for a week or so and see how
