Tiananmen Memorial - Hong Kong (NX0 + 50-150)
8

Thought I would post a few pictures to show that there are still a lot of us out there continuing to use NX cameras, at least for now!

Lat week I noticed that there was a memorial service for the Tiananmen Square victims near to where I live in Hong Kong, so I went along, taking with me the NX30 and 50-150mm, also my GM5 plus 17mm for some wide angle shots. Perhaps because I was juggling two cameras, one with a reasonably large lens, the stewards took me for a professional photographer and I was swept up into the press area at the front. Good, but I didn't want anyone to ask me questions as to why I was there, so I kept the camera to my face almost all the time. Now I have a lot more respect for press photographers - it's hard work

Although I now take almost all my photos with Micro Four Thirds, this lens and the 60mm macro are two I intend to hang on to for now - good results even on the older generation sensor.

Really good pics. It’s easy (and hard) to see the emotion associated with the event and area.

Thanks! Yes, I felt the emotion even though 90% of it was in Cantonese, of which I don't speak a word...
