Try dialing it higher, maybe +1 1/3 or whatever suits the situation.

what do you mean boss? you need a polarizer filter? if so you can get it here http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=130287744123 i bought it thru a forumer here ychwang. so far it costs around 350+another 20bucks (since ychwang says theres been currency issue)

Hey naruto~!
Thanks for the link~!
Anyway, the package u got seems to have a lot of *ehem* toys....
I just need the extention tube + polarizer.
Found one selling on e-bay for around USD25.
Translate to about RM100.
This includes an extention tube, polarizer & ND filter.

Anyway, I m going shopping tomorrow.
So I guess I'll drop by a few shops to see if they r selling.

PCHo> XD thanks, it seems dark border on lx3 setting is useful. i guess it wasn`t waste to read through the whole manual on the cd.
i think i need extention tube + polarizer as well since take some glossy stuff sometime it gave a big white reflection that spoil the pic

Mr.LKM> haha yea kureha is pretty afterall ^^

"dark borders"??
You mean "pinhole" izzit?

heh since want to buy might as well go for the full force right now still impatiently waiting it to arrive

@.@ Who is Kureha?

PCHo> haha my bad, i forgot XD yea pinhole, since i get used to call this effect using photoshop usually. i guess now i can save time doing it without using photoshop.

mr.LKM> kureha is the name of the figure, aka the character name in the picture that i take.

finally had my LX3 frm one of da lyn member....

anyone has recommend on screen protector and the cam beg?

Hey naruto, how long did it take you to book the package and for it to arrive?
I'll be visiting Taiwan end of this month, so I wanna know how long does it take for the package to reach me....

Hi i am a newbie with camera.

I am comparing LX3 and TZ7. To all sifu, please recommend which one is better?

Oh... Kureha.. I will remember her. Which anime does Kureha present?

By the way, is it important to include watermarks before posting the photos on the internet?

Dammit.....aren't there any shops selling these accessories for the LX3??
Went around the major shops around Melaka & couldn't find any....
In the end I had to buy from e-bay myself....
Now eagerly waiting for it to arrive lo.

I know got TZ15.....but not TZ7 ler.....
Anyway, TZ series only plus point is the zoom.
Other than that, I don't think it is a match for the LX3 la.....especially photo quality wise

Added on March 8, 2009, 3:31 amIt is not compulsory.
But then again, it would help stop malicious ppl from stealing your precious shots....
Imagine seeing your photo in a photo competition winning 1st prize, but then the person isn't you....but someone who stole and sent your photos.

This is what happened to our famous Malaysian blogger, Kenny Sia.
Someone stole his photo and sent it to a newspaper competition & won RM50 for it.
hahahah

Haha.. poor Kenny.. Do you have any suggestion for good watermarking tool?

TZ7 is the successor to TZ5. It's a new model just announced lately by Panasonic Malaysia. The review isn't (wasn't) up yet at dpreview.com.

]
Just went n checked out Panny's global site.
Saw the TZ7 there.
But are the cameras out yet?
Coz today when I went round Melaka, I did not see any of the new models there.

Might try to get the FX580 for my dear

You rested the camera on some surface while shooting the first pictar right.
I like the first one

i wanna ask..why the pic see back in da cam more rich color + nice brightness but when go back n see in pc/nb then color more dull n dark? issit normal?

Hey joyyy,

Of course need to rest it on something la.
If i can take shots at 4~8s without shake then I must have reached nearly godlike stage d

Oh....n u think is too bright huh?
Actually I tuned it up a bit in CS4....now that u mentioned it....it does look a bit over d huh?
Anyway, my purpose was to punctuate all the bright bright colors.
heheheh

Added on March 8, 2009, 11:39 amThe LX3 has a tendency to "under-expose" a little.
So in certain situations, it is best if u dialed in a bit of +EV compensation.
1/3 or 2/3 should be enough.

Colors wise, u could try the "Vibrant" or "Dynamic" film modes.
They give much better colors compared to the standard one.

tq PCHo for ur reply...im tesing it now...

dynamic is a good one..but the vibrant green is too green till it hurt my eye a lil~
