Trying out the new camera lens

in Town Square3 months ago

Just a brief post today with photos taken at the Lincoln Park Conservatory in Chicago to test the new Sony 90mm Macro lens. The conservatory provided plenty of flowers for test photos!

This is an Epiphyllum, commonly known as the Orchid Cactus or Leaf Cactus.
Because they are jungle plants, their care is closer to a tropical houseplant than a traditional desert cactus.

They have flat, scalloped, leaf-like stems (which act as leaves) and spectacular, oversized flowers.

Wow, I had such a flower at home and it was blooming. But I didn't consider it a cactus. And now the thought popped into my head- where's the flower? Why don't I see him at home?

But I didn't see anything about the name of the new lens.

In the first sentence. SONY 90mm Macro.
It will be fun to use! Hope you find your missing plant! I learned that I can't put mine outdoors in the summer. The squirrels eat them!

Traded in some an older lens and some unused equipment to pay for it.
Camera equipment is pricey!

Which camera you are using and which lens you are trying now?

The camera is a SONY ILCE-7M5 and the new lens is a Sony 90mm Macro.

These are really nice shots!

I'm looking forward to many more!

Lovely

Looks like the Sony 90mm Macro was a great choice. The images are crisp and the flower textures stand out beautifully.

Nice 👍 I'd say the lens is great for these type of shots

Looks good. I'm guessing you're happy with the purchase. 😎
