N2020 w/ 50mm lens

I just got the best early bday present... well, it's right up there with my parents deciding to pay for my Mexico cruise as my gift :D... I just got this amazing N2020 SLR with a 50mm lens AF. Best part is it attaches to my D70! And I've been wanting this lens for a while now so hurrah! The cool thing about the N2020 is that instead of doing the +/- feature for over/underexposure, it just tells you what shutter speed you should be on depending on what your aperture is. Also, for the focus, there are arrows and red lights and you just focus, focus, focus 'til you get the green light. Adrian gave me a quick tutorial on all the features and in that 10 minutes I feel like I learned more about cameras than I have in the so many years I've been trying to learn photography. hahaha.

Here are some quick shots:



Yesterday was a great day. Got this camera. Got a mustache. Went to Daiso for the first time! Had really good lechon kawali (kawawa!). Had amaaaaaazing, mouth-watering Fondant Au Chocolat from Beard Papa. Went on a long photo excursion in downtown (will post pix hopefully tonight). And managed a night of King's Cup without drinking a lick o' liquor. Mmmm... just thinking about that Fondant. Words cannot even describe how delicious it was.

Quick update on Xam'd. Finished watching all 9 episodes. It is getting very interesting. Can't wait to see how the story develops. I'm kind of seeing how this is going to be a theme of what does it mean to be human and who are we to judge who lives and doesn't.

Some of my fave pix from yesterday w/ the 50mm (rest can be found HERE):

Most of my pix from the actual photo excursion are on my Pentax & I haven't finished the roll yet. I'm going to make it a thing to go on photo excursions once a week. Hopefully it works out.

Time to pack for the cruise!
