Solid buy
I got this mic to record accoustic guitars, banjo and mandolin. It is a solid mic that emphasize fast transients and lifts up the high frequencies of the instrument. If you noticed that Jack Johnson has recorded most of his giitars with this mic, it will give you an idea of the type of tool we are talking about.
Interestingly, although few people use SDC mics for vocals, it worked very well on my voice when using the windscreen. It delivers some nice and crisp vocals.
Comparing the AKG451b to the famous Neumann SDC standard, the sound is a little thinner but in some case it actually helps fit the instrument in the mix. Basically, when this mic is the right mic for the job it is perfect.

Versatile good value lens
It is a nice general purpose, versatile lens. I bought it to make a weather-sealed kit along with my Panasonic GH3 since I take a lot of skiing/hiking pics. I am still honing my skills but so far, I took some really professional looking ski pics. For artistic shoots, bokeh effects, low light photography or videos, it is a good idea to complement it with a good quality prime.
