B is for …

BIRDIES!

Finally after some waiting … the Blackbird, Fly cameras has arrived! Collected mine last Friday from 8storeytree who are the official reseller of these cool cams here in Singapore. I hate making decisions, so I ended up with all the 3 colors. Unfortunately I couldn’t afford getting the 3 other limited edition colors … and thank God none of them is in red (I love red!). Can’t wait to bring one of them out for a day of fun!

BABY!

No … Fitzand didn’t suddenly have a little brother but it’s the Lensbaby! My pre-order for the Lensbaby Composer has arrived! I just unboxed it a couple of minutes ago and decided to take some photos of the process (did I hear you say ‘crazy!’) …

It came in a really cool colorful box this time (I don’t recall the LB2 having such cool box)!

Opened the box and a familiar lens cap greeted me and I went ‘whoaaa!!!’

Pulled out the Composer and I started giggling. Why? Look at that! It says ‘Mama? Congratulations! It’s a Lensbaby’. The last time I saw that was when Fitzand was born and there was a card beside him saying ‘Congratulations! It’s a boy!’. LOL! Damn! Those people at Lensbaby are funny! Okay okay … I admit I’m easily amused.

The Composer and his 3 little buddies … the plastic optic, the single glass optic and the pinhole/zone plate. I am really excited about trying out the zone plate one, as I’ve seen some pretty cool photos taken with it.

… and finally … B is also for

BROKE

Yeah … I think I’m pretty broke now. Sold off a fisheye adapter to pay for the Blackbirds and now I have to temporarily stop saying that B is for Beer for some time and spend more time having fun with these toys.

PS.

Dear Santa … all I want for Christmas is a barrel of beer (yeah, chilled!)

  1. Oh yar … I think a red would be good. I like your philosophy, can’t decide so just buy them all. I will try that with my wife next time … lol.

  2. Wilfrid, it’s different. Many cameras won’t give you the amount of trouble that many wives can give! Think twice! Think twice! LOL! Oh, I am not speaking from experience though. 😛

  3. hello, just wondering, what are the other 3 limited edition colour for the BBF?

    And i would love to see more pictures taken with your lensbaby

  4. Jac, the other 3 are yellow, brown n white. I think they were sold out in Japan in days after the launch.
