\n11th April 2008 – the IFTC (International Fashion Training Center) fashion show! I chanced upon this while in Sg. Wang Plaza.<\/p>\n


\nFortunately, I had my Vivitar Series 1 28-105mm F2.8-3.8 with me, a fast-focusing lens with good bokeh. I spotted this Sony Alpha user using a Vivitar Series 1 70-210mm F2.8-4; I told him that I had the Cosina rebadge of his lens!<\/p>\n


\nSo yeah, classic lens LCA. She looks plasticky here.<\/p>\n


\nI think that’s a Nikon F3\/F4?<\/p>\n


\n105mm was enough to hit the top of the stage…<\/p>\n


\n…and yet, catch a few models on stage.<\/p>\n


\nAt 50mm. Those with 70-200mm lenses in the crowd would not be able to get this, if they were on an APS-C body and standing where I was!<\/p>\n


\nEven looser at 35mm.<\/p>\n


\nThe VS1 handles highlights very delicately (unlike my Zeiss!)<\/p>\n


\nAs long as they were at least 1.5 meters away from my lens, all was well.<\/p>\n


\nI have to say, I quite like their designs…<\/p>\n


\n…and the models they got to model them in!<\/p>\n


\nThis was quite something… usually events in the concourse area of Sg. Wang Plaza would not make me pause to see what it was about.<\/p>\n


\nWill she marry, or is she still on the fence?<\/p>\n


\nProps to props.<\/p>\n


\n“Please sir will you give me a distinction?<\/i>”<\/p>\n


\nEvery other photographer was on the other side – not this uncle, diligently getting the best<\/b> angles unlike the sheep that stood on the other side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
