I couldn't resist...

Now I see what a sweet spot is...

Hi Pako, : )

You're tempting both our blood sugar and our lens desire, you know that don't you?

We're seconds away from a sugar rush but thanks for sharing the 'sweetness' of both!

Nice sweet pic Pako, however photographing such subjects has in the past been known too cause accelerated lens decay....hmmm better send it too me for a checkup.

Sweet

Did you eat one?

Ooo chocolate. Ooo Zeiss 24-70. I want one!! I think. Still cant decide if I need a wider angle. Got stung on Ebay trying to buy a Minolta G 17-35mm lens which wasn't. So now I'm indecisive all over again. Lovely shot.

Greg,
Lens decay? mmm. Lets do one thing, next time you're in NYC, you can do that "checkup"

None of those, but there were others that were amazing!

Get the KM 17-35 f2.8-4: other than a little soft @35mm and wide open, it is a wonderful lens for the price -you can find it for less than the 400 US Adorama is asking for (http://www.adorama.com/US%20%20%20%20402614.html)

This became the main lens on my A700. Now on the A850 I use the Minolta 24-85 or the Zeiss 40-70, depending on the gig and/or mood of the day. but I always take the KM 17-35 to any serious job or trip.

more sweet stuff:

Nicely composed photos Pako, and very well processed. The cakes are so nicely displayed it would be shame to spoil it by actually buying one ha ha, was that in a downtown cake shop in NY?

I love chocolate...so any nut and fruit that's fresh and nice and also covered with chocolate means Wonderland for me.

I wonder if Sony orders Carl Zeiss 24-70mm also manufactured- molded -out of fine cocoa powder into its 'remarkle sweetness'?

I like the shot of the Ostrovitsky's cake! : )

Processed or baked?

It was during an event last week. this client organizes conferences and then people socialize (good for dating, if you know what I mean...) taking pics like this is a little hobby I have

The 24-70 f2.8 is kinda fat lens, but I haven't find any cocoa powder on it (yet)
:-p
