Pikom PC-Fair Walkthrough

this evening, I had once again go to KLCC for having a fun-shooting at Pikom PC-Fair event. the reason i go for PC fair held in KLCC, 1st, i wanted to gather of news of rumored new carl-zeiss lenses, DT16-50 F2.8; 2nd, i just wanted to buy an extra, yet great performace memory card for backup purposes, in cases if my memory stick's memory had out of spaces to use. according of my knowledges and experiences, SanDisk Extreme Pro SDHC is the best SD memory card for most DSLR, which is consumer and semi-pro SLR. the writing speed of Sandisk Extreme Pro is up to 45mb/s. quite fast, right? none SD manufacturer can competitive with it, currently. I had get special price while buying SanDisk Extreme Pro 8GB, which cheaper than RM159, sounds cool. actually, in KL, only low-yat can found memory card with slightly cheaper price, which is RM149, at Sri Computer Sdn Bhd, whereas still distributed by same, and yet reliable company, Vector Digital Sdn Bhd. since this fair free lens pen, it is absolutely a best buy. Probably i will buy SanDisk Extreme Pro brand Compact Flash, after i pruchases Full-Frame SLR, either Sony Alpha900, sucessor of Sony Alpha900, or Nikon D700.

i had enjoyed photo shooting. i'm very joyed, especially when shooting with a showgirl, named Angeline. she's quite cheerful, charming, and very good customer services. initially, i have no intention to having a look for Panasonic compact camera or Micro 4/3, and since she gives some encourage for me to know some new product, all of sudden i feel happy, not because Panasonic camera's performance, is eventually she tried to encourages all customer for having a look for company's product. normally part time staff won't work with such spirit. i not mean to say bad things of Panasonic, actually all the while i doesn't hold any Panasonic camera, because Panasonic's SLD and SLR is using Micro 4/3 sensor, not APS-C sensor, which able to deliver better photography experience. ok, just stop talking of Panasonic. I had take some photograph for her, too.




















































































for me, this is my favorite shooting. angeline shows lumix camera with natural smiles, created the "happiness of holding lumix camera"

guess what after i having photo shooting? i visit Foto Shangri-La booth and meet ex-colleague. nothing particular, actually. how about DSLR basic accessory? i had survey around, yet, other than memory card, no lenses, external flash, filter(i'm crapping, filter is obviously wont available around PC fair) and branded tripod available, and thus, i only can continue to have a look of memory cards.
conclusion, Class 4 memory card may suitable for normal shooting, and VGA resolution video recording. Class 6 and above is preferred for burst shooting and HD video recording purposes. Transcend Ultimate SDHC is a bargain buy memory card, as it is Class 10, with 20mb/s reading and writing speed, reasonable fast and good performance for FullHD video recording, with RM65 for 8GB!!! sounds a best gift for consumer XD
