Canon EF-S 55-250 mm f/4-5.6 IS USM

Friday morning, we handled one wedding in Gereja Isa Almasih, Cikini. We left home at 10 am and arrived 45 minutes later, while the wedding will be started on 1 PM. So after delivered my chocolate fountain stuffs and staffs, me and Mike went to Pasar Baru to do some lenshunting. We are looking for Canon 50mm f/1.8 which price has made me amazed. It costs below 1 mio IDR.

Shop after shop we walked by, but no one had it. So we decided to go to Oktagon which is not to far from Pasar Baru. But since it was 12 and Mike was hungry so we find something to eat first. We stop by (i forgot the name of the Restaurant), which is located just accross Bakmi Sui Sen Metro Pasar Baru. I ordered bakmi kepiting and Mike ordered nasi campur (again).

Soon after we ordered, the food arrived and they looked like this :



and here is the nasi campur



Mike thought the nasi campur is delicious. Although it's expensive

After finishing our lunch, we went to Oktagon, asking for the lens we were looking, but they said they had no more. Grrrr.......

We looked around the shop, and i remembered something. Mike likes to take landscape pictures. The quite cheap recommended lens is Canon EF-S 55-250 mm f/4-5.6 IS USM (according to some testimonials i read in some forums). We asked for the price. It costed us Rp.2.298.000,- while DalDigital offered us Rp.2.400.000,-. And what made me happier? Actually Oktagon, collaborated with Citibank gave 6 months installment with 0% interest. So it costs me only for Rp.383.000 each month. Wow....

Finally we bought that lense. Can't wait to have outdoor photo session to try our new lens!
