Wow seriously shopping spree wei you. 2470 must must must go with a FF body la IMO. So faster sell me your VG cheap cheap. (:

should i get a P&S as backup?

not so soon la Kul | Mo0...i'm happy with A700 right now...in 1 mth...buy 2 zeiss lens...hurting my pocket...need few mths to recuperate...

Haha, doesnt seem like a problem for you le. =p Do you stay around PJ? Looking for carpool to Zaloon this saturday. =p

Bro, i took pics with matches before... read this off somewhere, but dunno where..

take something that can stand on ur table, e.g lamp, air freshener (those spray types),

tie a rubber band to it attached with a clothes pin.. that one will use to hold ur matches..

so basically, u already have something to hold your match for you so you can have a better shot at it.. use another match or lighter to burn the one that is being held, and happy shooting =)


and regarding my case, i emailed The Edge already, asking for explanation how can it be used without my consent, the editor replied back. Mana tau, the editor is someone i know. See i have been joining this bootcamp thing, like "fitness on the field", the editor happen to be in my session. She explained to me that it was a mistake putting my pics up because her graphic guys kinda messed it up. took the wrong picture from wrong sources, and it went to print. She apologized for it la. Nothing after that, no compensation or any note up to the public saying that that pic is mine.. so basically, im in the dark.

I cant tell them to remove it, because it is already in print, its hard for me to send them an invoice, because like mutual understanding in the field, we workout like a platoon, like family wise kinda thing.. the workout sessions get very "brother/sister" (whatever word suits it la).. im in a difficult position, and i was thinking of letting this slide, but based on what you guys think, is it a wise choice? Say, to sacrifice a friendship over something like this, and kinda let RM300? fly?, i mean what do you guys think you would do in a situation like this?

Lumix LX3 plis. You can never go wrong with it

finejava: show more pics with 85mm zeiss please!

lildaredevil906 : Money ftw! Ask them to pay la. Not your friend use his/her money also. The company's fund ma.

moo: like that wont it tarnish my image? lol.. i could use RM300 to get me a better camera bag tho, but i keep thinking if i do that my image gone..

Thanks. Yeah already got it to stand on its own. Its just that i need to lit it up without the secondary light (the one to lit the match) is hidden. At pic one can actually see there 's another light source which is not so clean to my liking.

As of your case its a matter of to burn the bridge or not. If it is somebody that later part of your life will be somewhat significant (ie boss, or something) its better to let it slide. If not matter much i say its either ask them to post a note or pay compensation. Don't think she's a good friend for not being professional and play the friend card in this matter.

Kul | Mo0: wish money would drop from heaven for me...i stay in Klang...but on the way up can pick u up la...but it would be more convenient for me if ur in Kelana...cos after that need to go USJ to pickup another friend...

Sp00kY: my previous spam is taken by 85mm

lildaredevil906 : What image oh? They steal photos, what is that? To every photographer, in my opinion, every photos taken means alot, so where can simply take? Publish on newspaper some more.

finejava : I can get to Kelana la. But will see how le, maybe can get a convinient carpool 1st. (:

if i were you, i would let it slide for now...take this chance for you to create some business relationship with her...if they like your shooting style...you can always tell them to hire you for some projects...

this way...you might be able to make thousands in the future, who knows...that time u'll be thinking of Zeiss all the way...

what i meant was some samples from dyxum or somewhere else...at least can poison alot of ppl...heheheheh....

hahahahha kkk thanks guys for the input.. i think should let it slide.. its burning the bridge that worked me over.. shes not to say in a small position in The Edge, maybe for future business.

finejava: Ya i was about to comment on ur zeiss! not to say ur lens not happening.. LOL.. not cheap lehh hahah.. moo's zeiss already tempted me, but the pricing of it cut throat!.. few more years down the road, ill definitely upgrade the lenses to CZ.. $$ come in 1stt..

if the the company make the profit from it.. u shud get some %, its their problem to put the wrong pic that (its yours without ur permission),

i'm going to join the boot camp as well...in PJ Astaka...maybe next mth...

ya la, true also.. but how much can i charge? RM300 for the pic.. well i need money.. lol.. but come to think of it, if she was on another bootcamp session, i think i would charge them. But since i practically known her for 3 months, future business is better i think.. too bad lor.. my loss for now.. no kata 467 for me.. darn!
eh come la.. im in PJ Astaka the 7am session.. they actually have this bring a friend day which falls on every 3rd week on a Saturday to let friend's try out the program, this month's bring a friend falls on the 22nd.. come try it out! lol its a very fun work out..
