$150 is really not top dollar.
you'll probably get part time amateurs for that price, and for that, you are better off shooting friends. they are f.o.c., you get to polish up your portraiture skills, and they get a picture to keep after that.
i have never and probably will never buy anything fragile or above $100sgd online.
its not worth the wait for delivery or returning faulty equipment. plus the seller will know where i live and i won't know where he lives.
stick with philishave. they're the best.
they got the smarttouch xl. its pretty darn good. none of that moisturiser nonsense. just blades that seem to stick to your skin no matter where or how u shave.
i agree. the 50mm's limitation forces you to do things you might otherwise not do or try. also, being a normal lens, its easier for you to visualise the shot in your head before you even frame the the shot. good luck on your 50mm adventure!
