Hamster

_DSF4038x

My dearest hamster who is formally known as Felix, and casually known as Animoo (Moo Moo at times). How we ended up with a variety of nicknames for this furry critter is lost on me. Then again I’m fond of nicknames myself and have countless aliases under my belt. This photo is taken with my X-Pro1 and paired with my bread and butter Nikkor 55mm macro lens.

It’s rather a pain manually focusing on this camera (way worse with auto focus). I find myself MF-ing much quicker on my D800 than on this camera. I suppose the reasons deal more with my familiarity with the D800 over the X-Pro1, and the fact that the weight of the lens (with attached adaptor) feels disproportionate against the camera body. But I do like how the picture turned out in the end. The color rendered by the X-Pro1 is such a gem.
