KTCY, get the samyang version of f1.4
it's as good, considering the price that you pay

Saw the score at DxO mark. quite surprise.

Morning,

Can anyone recommend me good photo printing shop around shah alam/subang?

I need to print 150 copies of 8" x 6" of photo for golf players. If possible i need it to be ready in 3 to 4 hours time

Also, anyone have any idea how much it cost per pcs?

Thank you in advance for your recommendation...

um...i can imagine if it's you going to the restaurant you'll ask the restaurant owner to change the lightings to cooler ones.

Thanks mate, Mitasu eh? Will give it a look next time I'm down south.

if i was the restaurant owner, i pour lots of blue dye over his food

nasi kerabu

You don't get the point. Photography is not only what you see.
So, if you go into a dark room where people process photo, you just show everyone a dark black photo and tell them imagine yourself ? You can make it black and white and etc to tell it.

Photography is about creativity. And WB is way too warm ! Even food blogger knows how to change their WB to make the food looks yummy.

Jepun makan nasi kerabu ka?

having hard time to edit the color temperature because of the aquarium light

i prefer nasi dagang

i mean when you dye your food into blue... then become nasi kerabu la ><

nasi dagang also got purple

pleasuresaurus - give it a try, if you fancy sashimi or sushi, their raw fish stuffs really fresh and taste great and to me that's what i'll order again next visit. remember to go at tues or fri if possible, those are the days when they import the raw stuffs (in fact, same for every other japanese restaurant including Rakuzen). other than that most other dishes are very well prepared and cooked. (highly recommend the one pictured below - Salmon Mentai Maki, the taste is...heaven!!)

Everdying/Agito - lol!

KTCY - OK points taken, guess I can't please everyone! but i still find that dark room analogy isn't a particularly good one or else all my shots look much darker than they are.

this one looks better?

I just give 2cent example. Can't think of any example

Usually people prefer warmer tones and or be in the scene/mood.
Really depends what is your photo for. If for yourself, then as long as you like the output.

Warmer output is usually what produce by most camera, possibly because they also know people prefer warmer tones, got the "mood" people say. Like in Wedding Dinner, you see guest taking photos, the whole thing yellow, they like it. Those photo with correct WB and color corrected, some people purposely apply the those effects filter to make it look yellowish somemore.
So really depends.

For professional or product shoot, it'll be about getting the accurate color instead.

Correct/Corrected WB, will give more accurate color and actually will give better result, especially if you compare in detail on the picture.

Andy - yup i like warmer output but that's also because people will feel more comfortable dining in warm lighting, and that's what i took most of the time though as i'm a food hunter of sort. but if the original scene isn't too cool to begin with, i won't pump the color like those i just posted. maybe more like below (although posted before, just repost again along with the original ).
