​ I got the New Petzval 85 lens and couldn't wait to try it out. I shoot film and do fine art and street photography. Since I had no photo shoots scheduled recently, I set for myself a challenge—use the Petzval lens with my film camera. It's a challenge since I use a Nikon FM2 which is completely manual and mechanical in Street Photography, which normally requires a fast auto-focus camera. It's another challenge because I am trying the Petzval lens for the first time and I can't look at my images until I finish the film rolls and develop them, and what can I say, I was amazed by the results. I like to take portraits, either for friends or of strangers I ask in the streets. I live in Hong Kong, and I decided to go to one of the busy streets, near some markets in Sham Shui Po area, and I started my challenge.
