I took the M8 to the Port Fairy folk festival. Its changed a lot over the
years, and is not really 'folkie' anymore: here is what Christa Hughes
described as Sydney folk gear. She was fantastic in live performance.

75 summilux with dodgy focus settings. This was one of 3 shots slowly
guessing the focus

We were also testing Helen's Oly with the teleconverters getting ready for
Kenya later in the year.

The long lens had trouble focusing at the high f stop with the 2x
converter and to get reasonable speed we needed high ISO, this one at
2000. The image stabilization is fantastic however.
