和kay逛pavillion的一天

终于可以和kay一起逛街了!
那天我很兴奋,一大早起身,连早餐也没有吃就直接出门了.很不巧,早上下大雨,所以带相机时也得带雨伞.没想到,kay比我更早到.当她打电话给我时,已经是9:30了,可是很不巧我还在半路,当到lot 10时,已经近10点了.我很着急的找她,因为一个女生在monorial station很危险的.打了电话给她后,原来她去金河.我们在金河相遇后,就这样一起去pavillion
在走过去pavillion的路途,由于还在下雨,所以我拿雨伞,为她挡雨,小心翼翼的带她一起去pavillion.到了pavillion,她提议去旺角吃午餐.既然她提议,对我来说当然ok.



过后的下午,我们走回去plaza berjaya的snowflakes吃甜点.吃完了,我们还去times square.逛着当儿,我说了不应该说的话-提议看电影.如果她还有时间就还好,可是就近4点,她说5点左右她就得回家.坐在某个角落,我有意无意的试探她关于当有人认真的告白,她会不会接受谈恋爱.她虽然说会看情况,可是我太猴急了,一下把我的右手伸下来,五指连在她的手,很紧张的,连告白都没说,她突然间喊了.顿时,我能感觉到她很害怕.我仿佛觉得我很像在伤害她.过后,我没有出声,我只好向她说对不起...因为我觉得很对不起她...

block leave

finally is my rest week. i'm extreme tired after the alpha zoo challenge @ 22nd of May. our KL represent Isaac, Teoh, and few, include me. total KL participant is aound 10 ppl. we start our journey from 9am to 1pm. we were hoping to perform our best, thus we have a sleep for more than 3 hours. Isaac keep listen music, meanwhile Teoh just sleep. for team outing, we're using

Vincent : Sony SLT-A33 , SAL55200-2
Isaac : Sony DSLR-A230, SAL16105 (he's 1 of the top 10 from Alpha Challenge KL @ 12/12/10)
Teoh : Sony DSLR-A550 , SAL75300
(the rest player i dun have their profile and their SLR)

when we reach Taiping, challenger from Penang had arrived. total of challenger from Penang is 67 ppl. most of them are commonly using

Sony DSLR-A900, Sony DSLR-A850
SAL70200G, SAL70400G, SAL70300G

sounds they very rich... all professional grade and premium grade, how we challenge them?

ok, wat the differences? Sony DSLR-A900 and Sony DSLR-A850 is a full-frame sensor DSLR. it capture image with more detail and clarity. our DSLR/SLT is APS-C sensor, which capture image less detail compare with full-frame DSLR. the only advantages is, the focal length is 1.5X compare with full-frame , 1X. it means, if APS-C sensor DSLR uses 300mm focal length, its total of 450mm equivalent with 35mm size DSLR.

we had tried our best, and i'm felt sorry of i lost my concentration and lost the ranking this round. we are EVEN LOST TO A LITTLE GIRL NAMED MS. CHAN, 10 YEARS OLD, USING SONY DSLR-A200 WITH MINOLTA LENSES!? i really impressed of a little girl can take impressive looking photo!!!

the Alpha Challenge story is over...

today i walk around KL, from my house till Cheras, so far. i had passby Menara Maybank, having simple shot, then i go lowyat plaza for more IT info search. then, i go to Leisure Mall, and i once again, enter Maybank @ Segar Garden. there's a greeter just smiles and handle customer with gentle and care. i'm like her service very much. actually she doesn't know of i'm maybank staff from other branch. i visit yan hui, too bad yan hui seems very bz... ok, fine, i just having a chit chat around greeter with those senior staffs, and the new greeter. the new greeter named Kay. she's very sweet girl, and though she is new staff, she done her job very well. if comparing with my branch, i always complain of customer get wrong quene, and customer never fill in any application form, and much much more

enjoyed "support" my friend =)

this morning, or i should call yesterday midnight, i'm having supper with siew chor and kuan hang. we keep bluffing and bluffing for fun, haha. the interesting part is start from kuan hang. he said he regret of buy vivaz pro, as vivaz pro dun have end call and pick-up call on the screen when incoming call or while conversation, and only can be done on botton which designed at bottom of phone. well, nobody will suit of new items in short time. no choice. no other way to cover disadvantages. and we had some experiment of simple photography outside too.

at afternoon, i went to sungei wang. as i wish of my friend - maggie can pass through the competition

waiting for new DSLR

finally i had found a news of Panasonic new camera - Panasonic G3. actually, i dun have any interested for G3. wat i'm curious is, Pinpoint focus, which touch the screen where the subject is pointed and subject will focus. according to official website, the focusing point is almost available in every single place, where most SLR has limited focus point. i'm wonder was Pinpoint is very effective? as the Pinpoint is far effective compare with most touchscreen camera? all the while, i not really impressed of Panasonic's SLR/SLD camera, as they equipped Micro four-third sensor, as most brand like Sony, Nikon use APS-C size sensor for standard SLR. generally, APS-C sensor deliver more detail compare with Micro four-third sensor, and as APC-C size is 60% larger than Micro four-third, APS-C sensor's ISO performace is far better compare with Micro four-third sensor. was Pinpoint able to resurrect Panasonic's market? wait and see. if Pinpoint features is use in Sony, or Samsung's SLD camera, i'm believe they'll deliver more flexibility and more better detail photo
meanwhile, i'm still waiting for the rumored semi-professional SLR - Sony A77, the sucessor of Sony A700. i hope Sony will develop better ISO performance, deliver more detail output, for Sony A77

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

lame night
