Anime Festival Asia 2016 which was held just over the weekened had ended. It was reported that an estimated 100,000 people attended the 3 days event. This number is expected to continue to grow. Here are some pictures from the event ( Saturday ). This post is open to all Pentaxians who attended the event. Hope to encurage more Pentaxians to posts. :)

As I am using K-1 , whihch is FF, I find that 50mm focal length to be most versatile for such crowded venue.

Hope everyone will enjoy the pictures , and participate in future anime events . Hint hint .... ;)

So next cosplay, I will wear a Rilakkuma suit. :D

Can.. and you can attract us to our photo booth when we set up next time.. Steady! hehehe.

I prefer the lighting nearer to the windows. but the space is always book early by people for their set up and too crowded to take a clean picture if you just roam around.



Above 2 are flash mount on camera with Mag Bounce.. Was still slacking.

Yeah, I also found that area to have nice light.
The inside area is harder with the warm/yellow/green lighting that is hard to manage w/o a strobist setup to kill off the ambient lighting.
