On closing day, the hi-fashion crowd come dressed way beyond the nines, with super famous designers in attendance.
SONY's display outside and inside the Main tent
Red-Carpet treatment at the reception!
The wonderful receiving staff!
And part of the Magnum girls who handed out unlimited free Magnum ice cream every day!

Journalists relaxing with the Osim Massage Chairs and unlimited Pellegrino Mineral water before the crowd comes in.
There was also unlimited servings of wine and vodka!
Inside the main tent, the lounge becomes a heady gala of Hi-fashion!

Most of the shots here were taken with the 35mm 1.4G series lens, which is SONY's professional lens range.
Tack sharp at 1.4, most shots here were at 2.2 - 4.5 for slightly more depth in a hurried and very crowded event setting with revolving lights of blue,
purple and fuchsia plus tungsten spots!
On the whole, the SONY HVL-F60M external flash worked well, but I had little chance to actually learn it's entire range of functions.
The crowd shots and some of the back-stage were shot with the flash head-on, as well as diffused.

Tried out the Sony a99 with the Sony 100/f2.8 Macro lens attached on some silly wild-goose chase in Kopitiam this evening
