QUOTE(amduser @ Feb 15 2012, 03:35 PM) can prevent thief as well? It doesn't guarantee that your camera will not be stolen, especially DSLR. kinda worry about the safety of malaysia this days   Thieves now are aiming at big and bulky DSLR as they know it is worth money with demand in the market. |

Some just looked at me and smiled after i took their photos.Some just acted like nothing, and continued doing what they did. Some gave me WTF expression, but nothing happened after i smiled at them. Some didn't even know that i took their photos even though i was right in front of them. Some chased me and I ran |

No one has ever chased me before, the last one was a joke lolz.But shooting strangers memang pun is a mental game. but it would be fun to get chased i guess. I usually dress in casual and use my crappy film camera to shoot street all the time, so people probably think that i'm just nobody or a tourist. Come share your ah pek story |

Lets just say the apek was unnecessarily aggressive but also serves me right for shooting when someone breaks the law. 99% of the time can just smile it off... Worse case scenario is they start posing
