FIRST CONGRATULATIONS to Jordan Smith of Harlan, Kentucky, yes the same Harlan I’m from, Jordan won the top prize in The Voice last night on NBC.  If you want a Christmas blessing of epic proportions go to you tube and play his rendition of the wonderful song,  Mary Did You Know.  I’m betting you will listen to all his other songs and you will be in awe.  Most important is this kid shared his faith through out the entire process, he wowed the judges when he sang Great Is Thy Faithfulness!  Please do yourself an incredible favor and check him out on You Tube. Trust me your going to be hearing a lot more about him in years to come.

 

Now I got a chance to do a little extra testing of the two new optics yesterday here are some results.

 

I love this inflatable Christmas Van in my daughter Catherine and her husband Clint’s yard.  They were big Jerry Garcia fans, and this Christmas wish is right up Jerry’s alley!  Fuji 35mm f 2 at F 9. Super clean, sharp, and great pure color.

 

My Christmas decoration with the Fuji 35mm f 2 lens at f 2.8.

 

Fuji 50-140 @ 140 f 2.8 shot hand held at 1/142th of a second, OIS  turned On.

 

Fuji 50-140 @ 140 f 4 with  1.4 converter shot hand held at 1/69th of a second, OIS  turned On.

 

 

More to come!

 

Blessings,
