Bangkok Tuk Tuk at Night

Shooting Tuk Tuk at night in Bangkok is fun and the only way to make it much more interesting is to pan it using a used Panasonic GF1 with 20mm f/1.7 pancake lens. OK, I am exaggerating, I know. I am showing off my new “used” gadget, I know. But this little guy which I got two weeks ago at ~S$500 cheaper compared to when buying it new can really do wonder. It won’t replace my Canon 1DIV, but there will be times that I prefer to bring this guy with me instead of my 1DIV. It’s small, it’s light, it’s powerful and it has bokeh!

More on Panasonic GF-1 in my next post. I will try to write a practical review about the camera. Not a pixel peeping review which most of us don’t care anyway, but just a practical review of what I will use it for. So stay tuned.

  1. An enjoyable set. By the end, the machine seems to be flying. I could not help but recognize the apparent absence of seat belts and recall a simpler and freer time. Being able to look through 100s of lenses around the world is a real treat, and I will return to enjoy more of your work. Thanks
