Just bought a new set of Canon 350D last week, so just want to upload a few pics here. Been patiently waiting for the right moment to come to buy this camera, and it finally arrived. Feel free to comment. thanks


KLCC


Cineleisure Damansara


Cineleisure Damansara

Personally love the KLCC one...
Nice... Keep it up...

#1, is #1. The others can't compare.

actually i like the Cineleisure 1...i like where there had a start effect on the word "C"..love the composition...

keep the good work and u will love photography..

Nice nice!The KLCC 1 is great!But i think it is a little overexposed,unless you did it on purpose?

all pictures..kit lens?

nice shoot for pic#1...
that good... keep it up..

i think all shoot by kit lens..

These is no better to time to buy the EOS 350D than now, at Rm2400 and 8MP, it's the best camera money can buy! Good try by the way, keep it up ...

When you're done with the kit lens, it'll be time to move on

^ wont be long
hehe

not bad, nice composition do watch out for highlights though. will be looking forward to more pics

Thanks for all the comments and criticism, it will only help me in the long run... Yeah, all using kit lens, no money to buy a 2nd lens... Probably i'll be looking at Tamron SP 90mm f2.8 macro, because macro is a field that i'm very interested at...

What do you guys think???

Another shot of the KLCC. In this trip yesterday, i try to play with shutter speed, to see how many seconds in difference can affect picture quality...

Are you ready for Macro and the DRAWBACK of the lens?

1 more ppl jump into white side , kakakaka
but the way the pic take by the kit lens are quite nice.
no money to buy 2nd hand lens but think to buy Tamron SP90 ??
kakkaa

I mean in this 1-2 months time definitely don't have the budget to get a 2nd lens, but later if got the budget, then i'll go for the SP90mm as my 2nd lens..

ac98: What's the drawback be then?? pls explain a bit...

Dont you think bout 50mm f1.8 ? cheap and good for portrait shooting !
How bout flash ?? hehehe

flash maybe not yet, coz my friend is using 350D as well and he already has a flash and 50mm f1.8. We go outing together quite a lot so its better to buy lenses that my other fren don't have so we can exchange...

Will keep uploading pictures...

Went to a go kart outing today, to test my panning technique, with a kit lens only... . After a few snaps, I decided to tame the track myself!! 20 minutes for RM55. The feeling? Priceless.

Location is Plus Speedway at Elite Highway.


This kid came to the track with his father and other siblings, maybe to show off to his dad what he's made of. Although he spins and gone off-track a few times, you can see his sheer determination to try to tame that little beast, as you can see in this picture..

Very nice shots at KLCC and also panning pic....keep on posting!!

Let me put it this way ... do you know what are the drawbacks of Macro lenses in general?

Good idea! He has a EF50mm F1.8 - you go get a EF50mm F1.4. He has a 430EX? You go get a 580EX

Oh man please don't put poison in my head~!

Got this picture while in the car at a traffic light this morning. The morning sun reflection on the glass window.

Thanks for the C&C. Appreciate it...

Whoalaueh. Those who always TT with you sure kena poison until lebam the foreheads woh!!!!

hm,...if you didn't mention it, I wouldn't know what it was about.

After staring at this picture a couple of times, i think it's like a painting, not a photo...

Nice pic of all....especially the #1 KLCC wan....hehe:) But from what i think is that the theme and feel for each photo must be clear in order to bring out the meaning of what you are shooting at or at least let the subject stand out.....anyway it's a very good attempt..keep it up!!!

After missed out on a very fine day yesterday, I don't want to miss the chance twice. The weather was unexpectedly clear yesterday, leaving the sky waiting to be captured by any lucky chap. Today though, I specifically bring along my kit to work just as preparation to capture a nice sunset near my office. The weather didn't disappoint, and after my working hours (which I went off a bit early) finished, I wander around in my car, looking for a good, if not perfect, spot to capture the sunset. This is what I managed...

This picture was taken at Jalan Beringin, Bukit Damansara overlooking the National Science Center dome on the right

the upper half look very dark to me...care to share what camera setting you use for the pic above? what time did you snap the sunset pic? i want to try to snap sunset pic one of these days...but i don't have any tripod n___n;

I purposely make it dark, so the silhouette effect becomes stronger.. My setting for this shot was :-

1/50 at f16, Aperture Priority, Focal Length 31mm, ISO 100, Daylight white balance, EV 0

But edited with Digital Photo Professional software that were bundled with the 350D kit. Thanks for the comment

Edit: It was taken at about 6.50pm

the tough thing about scenery shots is that electrical wires always get in the way!

yeah thats right. but it does looks likes a pattern or something...

I got this shot at a flea market near my office area this evening. Every Friday to Sunday, they're having this sort of flea market going on, just to make things a little bit happening. To add some spice, they'd hire a clown to make things even more happening.

So, a kid and a clown is good subject to focus for, so I stand near the clown for about 20 minutes, waiting for any kid to come and ask for a balloon from her. This kid here is very sporting indeed. Knowing my intention is to shoot her, she just pose there without me asking her to do it, neither do her parents. Instinctive....

The Government makes no effort to bury 'em?

Yeah thats right... how about fiber optics?

WAAHH!! That little kid looks very cute.

She's very cute. And the best thing, she knows i'm taking picture of her, that she pose like a pro.. haha...future model maybe?

Malaysia got fiber optic running across the city meh?

No lah... just a suggestion.. . But what i know maxis are using fiber optics cable for their broadband service..

wow.. you just bought your new 350D and you are taking some nice beautiful photos adi...keep it up and post more photo.

Thanks man... Will venture deeper as time goes by..

Light trail near Damansara Tropicana. Taken at around 7.45pm.

woohoo this one great hehe

Thanks.. U shoot models every other weekends? Like ur gallery though..

Got lucky with this shot. AI Servo mode with burst shooting. Got about 5 images in the burst, but i think this is the best... hehe

This one is super nice!

u need timing, location, happening, gear, skills.... to come out this picture.

Lots of patients too. I've been standing by the lake for about 20 minutes just to get this picture... a low flying bird with the green background.. But the wait is worth it..

Nice shots there bro ... you gotta meet Meredzone also, almost same name as you

Tq.. hows my proposal on ur 70-200mm f2.8 IS USM??

You haven't answer my quetion ... WHEN do you need it?

Probably June, coz im going to taman negara (if i haven't bought it yet).. but before that, would love to test it...

April and June means 100% a no-go. Those are motorsports months : The 2007 Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix and 2007 Super GT Championship. All motorsports enthusiates and professionals are busy either buying new lenses or using their existing ones, from main day events to roadshow to event promos which will run the entire month.

I suggest you get your own lens bro ...

haha ok.. maybe other time..

Excuse Me!Newbie here, how to shot like this?
Night Mode or what?

lao eh...
i need a tripod...

The second photo is SWEET bro! Good job! Breathtaking!!

Hmm, are you using DSLR camera? I'm afraid this kind of shot can only be done using DSLR or high-end prosumer cameras. (correct me if i'm wrong).

Anyway, my settings for this shot are:
1. Shutter Priority
2. 30 second shutter speed
3. ISO 100
4. Aperture is automatically set (unless use manual mode), usually between f16-22
5. Use a tripod please....
6. Use timer or cable release to release the shutter..

hope it helps

nicely done... maybe next time should bring my camera 2 work like u...

Yeah man, only after seeing your photo that I realised that it's MASSIVE! And the sense of movement is simply fantastic.. Maybe you should submit to DCM mag...

Submit to DCM? Maybe that's a little bit too much for now.. . Maybe in the future though..

Aluminium or Carbon Fiber ... your choice

manprotto~ go go go

Manfrotto is the aluminium one, the carbon fibre is Vargon or Vergon or Bygon or something

is Velbon...

lao eh.. Bygon oso come out liao..

Ahhhh ... you INGAT means mau beli-lar, just 'testing' you all only

Putrajaya Mosque and the Prime Minister Office at night...









Hope you guys like it...

A piece of Putrajaya...

What ISO setting did you work on for the Putrajaya shots? The noise is pretty visible.

I can't remember, but i think ISO 100, but this image was edited with PS after shot with RAW.. So, any defects is by myself, not the camera..

Nah it's not that. Basically I images are overworked on and even in RAW format there're still clippings and loss of details during underexposure. It's the skill you need to improve, not photo touch-ups

That's what i meant, my technique that need polishing...anyway thanks...

wan, ur photo actually need 2 correct the composition only then learn lil bit more what exposure u need 4 some photo....i think ur nighshots was a lil over expose, well just my personal though... good luck pal...

matt..

Thanks for the comment, will improve soon..
