New macro lens

I have switched camera systems (from Sony A-mount to E-mount) and my new macro lens, the 90mm 2.8 OSS, arrived today. I took it out during my daily “exercise” and immediately came across a caterpillar posing for me.

The lens is absolutely lovely. I never really took my old Minolta 100mm macro out because I felt I could never get a sharp image handheld, despite the A77’s built in stabilizer. It seems the combined effect of the lens’s and the A6500’s stabilizers really makes a difference.

While I’m binge-watching Friends episodes (again) in self-isolation, I remembered visiting Central Perk in Beijing in 2015 (on my birthday, no less). Totally made my day. I never put the picture up anywhere, so here they are. The full gallery is here. Could the place BE any more awesome?
