Seriously... Why bother with primes when you can do this? Unless you need faster speed or DOF, this is difficult to beat.
Absolutely. I was a diehard fast prime fan with my m4/3 gear, the likes of my Sigma 28-70mm f2.8, & even the Lumix S 14-28mm make such a strong case for zooms, that it leaves fast primes for more specific, niche type scenarios. I'm really over the moon with the quality available in L mount, & it doesn't have to be stupid expensive
 
She's no cupboard shelf Queen my S5. She does get around a bit ;);) Been over all the jumps & ramps in the local Mountain bike park. Hopefully she's as resilient as my G9. And GX8. A few more shots from this evening.

Embrace the flare ha ha ha. I thought it looked pretty cool.

I have the pork pie hat, it keeps blowing off in the wind. The Pipe is not going to happen. Ever :) The Wife just keeps dissolving into fits of laughter whenever I get dressed to go riding. The Daughter loves it too. he he he
That's perfect. I should get one for work. Would save ironing and putting on a tie! ;)

You captured some really nice late afternoon light in those shots!
 
One more bridge shot. I have quite a collection of them done with my m4/3 gear, not sure if I'll redo them all with the S5.
I've just planned out a trip to do the Victorian Silo Art trail in North East Vic. Just got to get the time off work, in some nice weather. Nice being not cloudy & rainy. Really looking forwards to it.

A few from a visit to the Kansas Cosmosphere, which is in the middle of a major renovation:

It was good to see this back on display! I remember it from my very first visit to the Cosmosphere two decades ago, but it was taken down a few years later.

The U.S.'s first successful satellite, Explorer I.
(And these are the kind of reflections that drive me crazy!)

What's left of the first attempt to launch a Mercury capsule on the Atlas booster.

Might've been light enough to use a CPL, but didn't have one with me.
