Sigh..nevermind then. Thanks for the replies.

That Xenon flash can't b used for long period else it'll burn off
The red led light is not able to serve as a torchlight at all

For god sake, N8 uses Xenon flash. It requires a energy build up before using the flash. I guess it is not wise to do so.

Because the bulb of the Xenon will burns off if it stays on
Imagine having to change the bulb and how much it would cost u
If u wanna risk it then plz do try it n tell us the result thumbup.gif

The point for the gathering is to master photography and have fun exploring together not about nokia. Its about us. Nokia is the tools to get us there

I organize I also no prize. I more Cham  cry.gif
*
Tat's y I said on that day, Nokia hired them (Nokia's "PR" company) to do a job and they made some1 else not paid nor rewarded to do it
And now asking them to do something so simple yet they also can't
Bt thank god the main event was not due to Nokia but due to us n our interest to learn
Gotta thank sifu Aspire n sifu Alex for the dedication and effort you both put out rclxms.gif
Else we wouldn't b able to have fun enjoying ourselves that day
Only credit I'll give them is for the lunch that day (however that is not without its hiccups) but everything else does not deserve any credit at all

"Credit" goes to Nokia for discarding the previous company where Radiance was doing such a great job
The only thing Nokia is ever good at, making bad choices

That's because someone discuss, propose and organize it. The benefit are arrange not pop out.


Added on May 3, 2011, 7:03 pmReally u try get another brand sponsor your event see. Look forward to attend .
*
Lol, regardless of what andrekua says
It does not change the fact that Nokia does indeed needs this
Now it's all about brand messaging in our world
Look at the success of Apple, Facebook etc

If you are an 80yr old man still living in the golden era then it's understandable if you think that way
Where you just blindly accept whatever that is being fed to u without going to the finest details
Do you honestly think Nokia can survive any longer ignoring us consumers?
The lunch did not went unnoticed, all of us were grateful nor did we take it for granted

However the attitude they kept giving us is the most infuriating part
In this world now, customer service is the latest "trend"
U snooze u lose, simple as that

Worst off is that they are a "PR" company which stands for PUBLIC RELATIONS
Yet they can't even do a simple thing as maintaining the public image of their client Nokia (wateva little image that Nokia still has left)
If you give your word then you keep it, you don't randomly give us a date and expect us to forget bout it over time

Nvm, I'm not condemning you. I'm just saying that I thought you are driving force behind this event, PR company just a medium between us and Nokia as part of the Ranger programme. Nokia just responsible for the prizes and lunch. Im assuming Nokia is not interested to take active roll in this, only will act as sponsor.

And the medium is not doing its job at all

Erm, since Im not attending, I dont really know. But judging from the previous outing for event for N8 and E7, PR company aint really doing much except to relay information between us and Nokia, preparing venue for the event, and perhaps fighting some freebies for us. They dont really participate much in the actual event itself.


Added on May 3, 2011, 8:23 pm

Perhaps, you are under-estimating Nokia brand. I wonder has anyone in and around Asia or Europe never used a Nokia before. Apple only began to make name for themselves in the last 2-3years, but I dont think most of them who heard of Apple really know what Apple are. All they know is iPhone, due to the marketing hype created by the queueing which make it to the headline. Nokia problem is not related to marketing or communication, its just simply that they stayed stagnant for too long and everyone overtook them.
*
They din even prepare venue, and all the rest was only done because of aspire n alex fighting for us

That's the thing, every1 used b4 and every1 had high hopes on it. But wateva reputation they built over the years is slowly decaying
They dun move forward, they dun improve, they rush on things (early announcement but late launching with many probs), they aim too high
And most importantly; they have over the years, been blinded on who is the main foundation for its growth: US! the consumers

It's not that I'm underestimating but rather I've overestimated them
Like u said, they gone stagnant and has been apathetic ever since

For ur basic consumers (majority of the consumers), u dun need to do a background check to purchase it
U just need to know/hear bout it
Not everybody is a maniac like us who really see things up to the finest details
Most consumers would just ask their trusted relative/friends and just purchase on recommendation
Who bothers anyway, there is too many model for that 1 brand and each is different from another
As long the world say it's good then it's good
This does not apply just to phones only

I stand to be corrected

Don't worry so much about the result and prize, it will come; Anyway, they're not obliged to give any prize or anything, right? The main purpose of the event is for gathering and learning photography, the prize is like the "additional" reward or icing on the cake.
Give them some time, plus, it's may not be part of their job or they might have some plans going on.

I think to benefit for them, they might want to publish it or promote those "stunning" or "amazing" pictures taken with N8.

Just my cheap 2 cents. There's no need to rush for the prize anyway right?
*
I'm actually not tat much concerned bout tat, rather i just dun like procrastinators
Or maybe just coz I dun like Nokia's service overall that's y i vent out like that
Perhaps I'm just extremely unsatisfied to see the brand that I trust decaying, particularly Nokia Malaysia
Super sucky after sales service, always give false promises and I could wait up till a month to b able to get my phone back

Regardless, I'm happy that we were able to take great pictures on that day
Whether they use it or not matters not to me at all
Because I'm truly satisfied that I gave my 200% in taking those photos and they came out spectacular laugh.gif

Spot on sifu response.

The purpose of the event is photography. Anything else are extras to turn up the heat. They just contacted me it will be announce either today or tomorrow.

Btw aspire, i wanna learn more night shots
Maybe next event we can do night shots?
Just my recommendation

Take it easy mate, let's not involve the photography event with it; I think you guys did great, so the memory should be keep as good memory.

Anyway, for night shots, I think Shah Alam I-City might be good? SIFU aspire went there before and took some nice photos.

I went there b4 too and the quality was just ok-ok
I wun mind, coz the place there is has 2 extremes
The super bright lights and super dark background
I wanna learn how to take this 2 contrast at night
