Some photos to share...













4th and 5th colour a bit off, though...

Yup...

Nope, it's inside leisure mall also, few shops next to the MOG which sell economy noodle/rice and tong sui one, called leng leng tong sui (nice nice desert)...

No secret, you just have to know how digicam works.

The most basic thing is your hands have to be very steady. If you saw the preview picture you just captured a little blur, take another shot. Not quite critical during daylight cause the shutter speed is very fast, but when it comes to indoor you need more steady hands as the shutter speed is slower.

Have a look at the first 2 picture, they're not cropped, but resized. Still looks blur right? Cause it's shot at ISO-500. The higher the ISO value, the picture will more blur, due to strong noise reduction, it makes the picture looks blur. I got no choice cause I need macro mode to do close shots, or else I'd be using night mode cause the shutter speed is longer hence only need lower ISO (night mode is useful for still picture, it'll still auto adjust ISO and shot at ISO-200 if light source is plenty but you'll still find picture brighter cause shutter speed is slower).

Just learn to hold steady first you'll notice lots of difference.

To check ISO (and other informations like shutter speed etc), download the jpeg, right click the file, "properties", "summary" tab and switch to advanced view (if it's in simple mode). You'll see lots of information including which camera was used for the photo.

The ISO setting in Nokia 5MP family is only ISO-100 (low), ISO-200 (med) and high (ISO-400). If need more than that you have to set it to auto, that's the limitation set by Nokia.

I never play with the sharpness, cause lazy to set it. Of course I'll always want more sharpness than smoothness but everytime I need to set flash off, white balance, and snap, or else I'll miss some scene due to late snapping.

Oh if flourescent light you must set it to flourescent, or else it'll always too "white" in auto mode.

Quite impossible for that to happen, you'll have to be steady when holding the camera especially when pressing the shutter button.

Where got special la...

Yeah, practice is what you need, and try to figure out how to get your hands steady when pressing the shutter button.

Yup, no stabilizer.

Both photo and video also got stabilizer, just N95 don't have for photo stabilizer. I always switch stabilizer on for video, smoother.

Got bored, playing around something weird lol...

A picture I took yesterday evening time, but imageshack and photobucket seems kong for a while so can't post it...



Fully auto, just take out the camera and shoot...Colour still a little off, should be a little yellowish...Also didn't noticed the small portion of building on the left, lazy to crop it...

if I can take without the wire, I would have taken already...

...maybe next time for a clear sky picture...

Some random photos took today...What a sunny day...


Simply simply shot...


On the way to Pavilion, damn jam...


Damn "sai"...


Lucky got tree to "je sai"...


Tring to shoot KLCC...missed...


Wah the bus so hiong...





Traffic jam~~

No lah yesterday was very jam, traffic literally just stop, and jalan a bit, then stop for a while again...So while stopping I just take some photos lo . But very dangerous to do it, though...

Taking photos at sunny day like that is pretty easy, as the shutter speed is quite fast so hands no need to be too steady. I've adjusted EV+1 or +2 for certain photos as it automatic compensate the building brightness for the sky, so I purposely overexpose the sky area and give the buildings/other stuffs brighter looks.

Those photos I took still looked a little purple'ish to my eyes, unlike N82 daylight photos I saw at other websites which a little warmer and more accurate overall...

There's no such thing as avaxx/sapura warranty, it's either by sapura, or avaxx. For that price, it's definitely too good to be true.

The only distributor for N95 8GB in Malaysia is only Avaxx. N95 8GB advertisement on the newspaper clearly shows that only Avaxx is the distributor (only Avaxx logo on the ad). Means, other than Avaxx set, there's no use even you bring your phone to zitron/nokia care center as it's not covered by official warranty. They'll layan you, only if you pay for the services/repairs.

Told you already, there's no Avaxx/Sapura set, it's either Avaxx, or Sapura. Ask him to give you final comfirmation whether he's going to give you Avaxx set or Sapura set. Once again the price is too good to be true. Whether you want to try your luck it's up to you, but for that price, he's probably give you Sapura set.

Re-read my post again, especially the very first sentence?

I was thinking exactly the same thing last night lol! Don't think so they probably check the sticker instead the internal imei...They'll take out the battery and battery cover and give it to you to keep it, and most probably directly look at the sticker...

Oh ok, great price there...

Phone Zitron at Berjaya Plaze 13th floor that one to get a quote, they'll sell you. I purchased my keypad for RM32, pasang RM50 obviously I DIY and didn't pay for the labour charge...

Don't go ask at Nokia Care Center, they kiasu and won't sell it to you...

No need to open, keypad is very easy to pry off. Just need push the side cover outward a bit while removing the keypad cause it'll get in the way.

Last time busy a bit so changed to hibernate lol...

It's Berjaya Plaza, opposite Time Square la, the old looking plaza with starbucks in front.

Not really kiasu la just simply say but for sure they won't sell you spare parts, you have to pay the labour fees as well.

Unfortunately I never try to mess with N95 housing, you need T5 or T6 star screw driver (not sure what's the exact name) to open/close the housing. Keypad no need screw driver so I pasang myself lo.

Seriously, I don't see flipsilent/shutup worth sacrifice for battery life, as accelerometer will drain the battery quite fast?

Or I was wrong that it won't eat up battery much?

Some pasar malam shots I took last night, didn't walk the whole pasar malam so just walk a few stalls and buy some food, then took a shot or 2 each stall then cabut liao...




Colour stil...haiz...I haven't got any success on fruits colours especially oranges...


Popiah...Well, took first shot and thought of taking the final complete popiah, look until forgot liao, by the time want to take photo already packed...

I wonder why GSMarena never mention the N95 family still producing purple'ish photos compared to N82? They got colour blind izzit lol...

Anyway, photoshoped version of the fruits, just did "auto colour" and boost some contrast...Nicer? Although those oranges still looked over processed with contrast, but if don't compare with original I think OK...
