ianho: thanks for ur information..

ahh noted on ur case.. then i think i better go for the better range CPL.. more bang for my money

countdracula: got one.. read it before somewhere.. the story was, the photog wanted to create the dreamy /soft look on the spot. so the photog took vaseline or oil to create the dreamy/soft look... then i think the filter of course throw la.. unless u can wipe it and reuse it for the same purpose la.. so just for the fun of it.. wanna try out for myself to see how the vaseline or the oil thing can create the dreamy/soft look, curiousness purpose.. kind alike a thing i must try just for the heck of trying.. hehe

You won't regret the CPL, heheh. Shooting with my kit lens fitted with a cheap CPL, and saturating the colours thoroughly can produce lovely effects especially on the sky. Here's an example of a shot with my CPL attached. Shot was taken at a fishing pond.. (a nod to my Gear II, heheh)

Got,i remember someone in garage sales selling one chapalang wan for Rm18 only

haha,mine i got is for RM30 oni.

yes the lx3 is a good p&s. the new girlfriend1 (gf1) or olymp ep1 is very hehe but i still like my a700 better

Sony a200 has been popping a lot at garage sale. very good price also!

Any one will go IKEA? hope someone can help me buy the table lamp

Just to make sure u get the lamp I'm talking about. It's this 1.


The lamp comes with warm light tube. Very yellowish for taking pics. So if ur lazy to do PP like me, change the tubes to daylight so it's pure white light.

thank you very much ianho, any recommended light tube brand or model?

speaking of filter. i bought one for my 16105, raydawn UV filter cost me RM80. just wanna ask will bad filter affects the colour or the quality of the pics taken ? if it does, i might consider buying a CZ filter

got the money.. go for cz.. if not enough.. b+w or heliopan also ok..

still not enough, buy hoya pro1d like me

Any brand oso ok as long as it's labeled as Daylight temperature.

there is 3 type of fluorescent tube
1. Warm white 2700K. <= I like this one.
2.Daylight 4000K
3.cool daylight 6500K

hkhk, do u have any sample picture using warm white 2700k or daylight 5500k tube?

Anyone heard about Maybank Treat Fair at Sony Style on tomorrow and Sunday? Tho se who has Maybank Credit card and Maybank ATM card (the cherry one) entitled to get 10% discount of Alpha main unit. And 20% discount for accessories (lenses, flash etc.).

Is this the right time to buy at Sony Style? What say you?

hkhk: Er, the normal flourescent tube is 4500K M6 (slightly warm, with a lot of green.)

I thot it applies to MBB's SonyCard only.... either way I will be heading to redeem my TreatPoints

No, trust me, they will be having it big. For Maybank customer (Maybank Crad (ATM) or Maybank Credit Card)

Sorry my fault.. Error.. haha..
