I DID A THING

I did a thing. When I was online today a new lens JUMPED into my cart. Just like that. This cute little 2x magnification macro lens jumped in the cart, paid for itself and arrives in three more sleeps. 

Three more sleeps. 

Insert happy face here.

  1. Clever little lens. When I go shopping it's usually packets of biscuts (cookies) that jump into my cart.

  2. I have the same post title today but mine was a totally different thing...lol I just love when things jump in my shopping cart and pay for themselves. Unfortunately sometimes it's too darn easy to push that buy now button

    1. Thank you, Marie. It's gonna be fun.

      I have a good friend who just got into photography and she likes to shoot the birds and the duckies and all of that too. Very fun.

  14. What type of lens jumped into your cart, Ivy, so maybe I can get one to do the same? Actually, I did recently get a new compact digital camera but it had to be coaxed into mine 😏. Good thing too because it's gone up in price in the past 3 weeks.

    1. Hi Beatrice. A true macro x2 magnification. Manual aperture and manual focus. Very, very, fun. Training myself on it now. I'll do a post about it. It's a Loawa 65mm x2 macro for my cropped sensor. Though I believe they make a few different ones for other sensors as well. Wow, wow, on yours going up in price. That's partly why I got this lens recently as well. Before it jumped up. If I can help in anyway, just drop me a comment. Happy to help if I can.
