Today we celebrated the “OXI” 1940s Greece’s entrance to the WW2 against Italy and the axis.
Today I was brave enough to take along my Olympus EPL5 and instead of using the standard kit lens I took with me the OM manual ZUIKO 50mm f1.8 and Lens filter B+W kr 1.5 Skylight.
Problems I new I would face where:
- manual focusing
- 50mm is 100mm equivalent in m4/3
- fast moving crouds / kids
- lack of space to move and compensate the large focal length
Still I had confidence, I had no pressure I wanted 4-5 good shots and to be able to get some video footage (old Style) of the overall parade.
I think I managed it….
