 QUOTE(PCHo @ Mar 19 2009, 10:45 AM) Hi hi... yes sir! LOLI did consider this. But most of the other blog sites don't seem to fit my tastes. I've tried blogger, facebook, friendster.... I didn't like the layout and the user interface. The resolution for blogger is too small for my liking (the width of the blog pages). The only one that comes relatively close is msn my spaces. But then spaces tend to change the color of my photos  Any other suggestions? Added on March 19, 2009, 11:11 am Hi there joeylny, You've been quite active recently after u got ur LX3~1 kekeke About camera settings.... iA mode is good for daylight shots. You can hardly find any fault during daylight in iA. But then u won't be able to do some of the more creative stuff bcoz iA generally is a "snap shot" mode. Once u get bored, u can try A mode to control the depth of field. This is where u learn how to manual focus. For the best bokeh, set the aperture to f/2.0. About the polarizers and filters.... Polarizers help reduce reflections and bring out more green n blue in scenery shots. While the UV filter is only a protective filter, a bit similar to an ND (neutral density) filter. Both generally reduce the exposure by 1~2 stops. Frankly speaking, u can live without these filters. The LX3 is already a great cam on its own. I've been using it for 1/2 a year now without these extra stuff, and I was still absolutely happy with the cam. But in the pursuit of getting better photos, I wanted to try these filters in Taiwan to see if they make a big difference.  now finding how to change aperture *hmmm* i am like totally blur bout this cam so need to ask more from u sifus mar so i am gonna be active here for quite some time i shud have bought the adapter tube plus uv filter.. like u did..btw how long did it take to reach u from hk to msia? QUOTE(PCHo @ Mar 19 2009, 02:05 PM) Ya, i m not sure why, i m not sure how....but it says I've already used up 25GB of my monthly transfer bandwith.... i also wanna be ur god sis class for 2? hahHa just kidding That's like thousands of ppl downloading my pictures  I think there must be a mistake.... Anyway, registered a 2nd one and I am back to business Glad my little guide is useful. My god sis was asking me to teach her. hahaha |
