this is consider one of the lighte3st zoom lens in the L series produced by canon, though it still weigh a freakin 750g
and with it's upgraded IS function, if at low light situation, with a normal 1/250 sec shutter speed, with a switched on IS, i can go down to as low as 1/15 sec and the images will still be as clear!
This is because there is something called a gyro sensor in all IS range lens, it will detect unwanted vibration and sending image into the correct position on the sensor.
since it's running a on USM, its auto focus is superb...and it's not gonna make super loud noises like tamron's lenses...
perfect lens for street photography, wildlife photography...travelling...portrait...omg...i'm like opening another new world of possibilities in photography!
i can't wait....why is no one selling this lens anymore on free trade zone?
and oh....i need another backpack for travelling...and i've decided not to buy lowepro...coz the design is really ugly...and i can't allow myself to carry such a ugly bag around...
so i am left to only one choice...crumpler...but damn expensive...a whickey & cox is a whooping rm650?!!?ok lar...what to do..i have no choice...
hopefully i'll have everything all ready for my bangkok trip may next year...omg!!70-200 for bangkok's street photography!!!no one will stare at me like i'm some kinda freak anymore!!!hooray!!
so......this is christmas?
after a week of trying to revive my crashed hdd...crying in the bathroom...pulling many strands of my hair out...and with the help of uncle remi...
my pc is finally working!
if i lost all the data inside my pc...i might prolly just jump down from 9th floor and become a ghost in bayu putri...
so that i can haunt people for fun...
anyways...
this lesson taught me...never to download things from the internet
er...but then if i don't download..many people will loose their supply of american series...
okok..what i meant was don't download from sites that has crappy design like bt china...
p/s: thanks for the pull & bear sweater!i really really liked it!this is a spanish fashion brand that carries a whole lotsa sweaters that are like super nice...but the price also very nice...only people like uncle remi will be able to afford it...
nothing much happened the last week...
work...work....work... and work...ar...not forgetting many crying nights coz my hdd crashed...
okok...i'm such a cry baby...i know!
i managed to catch a live performance by juwita suwito on friday night at bangkok jazz
she is yummylicious!!!
er..nono...what i meant was her songs...
seeing her performing live and listening to her cds are like totally different...
with the ambient in bangkok jazz...i can almost feel my ears dripping oil after every song she sang...
she did some of her own songs...some pop songs...some rnb..some rock...
there isn't really a theme for the songs that she performed last night...
it's more to like singing her favourites...and some of mine too!
everything was really nice there...except for the only thing that i really don't understand
why did they put a disco ball in a middle of a jazz bar?
jazz bars are suppose to be dark...with the light concentrating in the middle of the stage...so that everyone can pay attention to the performance..
the disco ball reminds me of the olden days discos in cheras...where people will go there and feng tau...
i really think the interior designer of bangkok jazz deserves a freakin smack in the head...
and oh ya...i attended my creative head's wedding at a restaurant called sassa rossa??ok..i'm not sure of the spelling..but it is something like that...
the wedding was kinda nice...coz i think the restaurant is like super chun...
but as usual...i don't really fancy fusion?italian?french?cuisine...
it all seems like rabbit food to me...
since i am a typical chinaman...i would prefer dai chao like hokkien mee...singapore mee hoon...fried vege...yada yada
but who on earth will serve this sorta food in a posh restaurant like that??
okok...it's my bad...it's not the fault of the restaurant...it's me...
if u like red wine...u would like to attend wedding like this...coz they serve non-stop supply of wine...being the good kid i've always been...i decided not to drink any of those...coz i'm really not a drinker and don't want to end up driving back to segamat instead of my own place in PJ...
the wedding photog my boss hired has this lens of my dreams...70-200 F2.8L IS...which is about rm6.8k for a new one on the market...
but i know i will never buy this lens for wedding...coz if i do..one day after many yars of shooting weddings..i might end up with a right arm bigger than arnold schwarzenegger...do you know how heavy that piece of metal is?it is almost 3 times the weight of my current camera's body...
ok lar...i am cheapo a bit...i'll buy the 70-200 F4L IS which is 2 times lighter...and easier to carry around...
image quality couldn't be as good as the F2.8 IS...but with my photoshop skills...I CAN DO WONDERS!!!hahahahhahahaha...
ok..enough of self-boosting...i am half way through cleaning my house..and i am talking cock here...i need to go mop the floor now...
can i write something obscene here?????
damn it...it's my blog..i can do anything i want
ok....
*taking deep deep deep deep deep deepppp....breathe
*coz of taking too many deep breathe, struck with hyperoxia and died
I NEED ONE FREAKIN MIND BLOWING ORGASM TO GET ME BACK ON THE ROAD!!!!!!!!!!
ok lar...i was joking...
what the hell was i thinking?
it is 2am in the morning
and i'm like talking cock here
mmmmmmmm
ok...talking cock is what i can do best
let's not take the one thing i really enjoy away from myself
it is friday again!
arghhh...i am working on a full-day's wedding on saturday...so it is like no rest for me...
ok lar..i am looking forward for next weekend to come...hooray!
christmas is coming!
jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way~
but i won't be around for christmas
because a best friend of mine is getting married on the 25th and i'll have to rush back to segamat from work on christmas eve..
maybe this will be the first time i will be celebrating christmas with my parents!
i should prolly get them something nice to eat...
like a log cake or turkey or something
hmmm...the food won't taste nice after 3 hours of driving back...
or maybe we can have a special mamak christmas eve supper...
that would be something special
too bad there aren't any really nice western restaurant in segamat...
but i guess it's the company that counts...
and actually...i'm pretty excited...coz finally one of my best friend is getting married...
and i'll get to play pranks on the groom
ya know...after all those wedding jobs i've done...
i would consider myself pretty expert on figuring the best way to torture the groom
hohohoho...
this will be fun~
it's weird not spending my christmas with you...
hugs...sorry i had to go back...
hope you'll have a splendid christmas...
p/s : damn it...stupid windows xp is giving me so much problem..bill gates is like so freakin rich...it won't even affect him if i'm using 'ahem' version of xp...why does he needs to be so particular about it!now even installing the new msn messenger requires IE7, which is not a freeware...damn..this is really pissing me off!!maybe i should really consider buying a mac...a mac book pro will be a great birthday present from my parents...since they've never really bought anything for me on my birthday...hohoho..i am going to be a bai gar zai!my money are of better use like a 70-200!i am getting so near to it now and i'm so excited!
i can't believe it it december already!
what have i done through out the entire 2007?
nothing man...u know..nothing!
suddenly...i feel kinda sober...
because i am getting old...yes..i am getting old...
i will soon be a freakin 28 years old piece of crap...
and i still can't see any achievements in my life
ok...maybe i am really not good in what i'm doing now..
i think maybe i should find another career path...
maybe i should be a full time photographer
go around the world and take super chun shots...
so later on in life i can show off to the younger generations...
and say something like... "oh...that place ar...been there..done that"
and later on my dad won't struggle to try to explain what is my occupation
and he can just say...ohh...cameraman lor...
hahahaha..cool~
seriously..do you know everytime people asked about my job
my dad will be like...
"erm...not sure..something to do with art...something to do with the computer..."
and he still can't really get the idea of multimedia designing...
the only thing he knows about computer is solitaire...
ok lar..the game is not bad...i once got so hooked on it...
i spent 90% of my time playing it...the other 10% trying to eat..sleep and shit...
i even try to hook up streamyx for him...
but a bit worried he might surf into those kinda gambling site...
and end up using his credit card to gamble off everything
so the next time when i go back to segamat...
i might find a lelong sign hanging right on the gate...
worst still if he starts surfing porn sites...
OMG...okok...i know is bad to think of my dad this way...
but it's like you'll never know right?
porn sites not only affect your health...
it's a waste of money
and might get infected with viruses..trojans..bugs...whatever shit that will destroy your HDD....
i think maybe if i set up a firewall that prevent him from loggin into these sorta sites..
i wouldn't need to worry every night before i go to sleep...
but then it's like treating him like a small kid...
hmmm....
but it will be really great if he has internet...so i can chat with him in msn during working hours...
haha..or best even if we can web cam...
and he can youtube to watch videos of stupid ministers giving stupid comments like erection of the country....hahaha...what a loser...
and can watch live nba score sheets...
talking about nba...
damn..i think celtics will do well this year lor...
with pierce...garnett and ray allen...
it reminded me of chicago bulls during pippen..jordan and rodman's era...
damn i sure miss those times...
it seems like there are lot of trios in nba now
like kidd, carter and jefferson from new jersey nets...
arenas, butler and jamison from washinton wizards...
nowitzki, howard and terry from dallas mavericks...
duncan, ginobili and parker from san antonio spurs...
nash, stoudemire and marion from phoenix suns...
sigh...no astro at home means no nba...
i think i'm like slowly getting outta touch of the game
i still remember during my high schools days..
i can memorise all the players details without referring to anything...
gees...come to think of it...i was really a freak last time...
i used to try to do stunts iverson or jordan...or penny hardaway did during the game...
and had to cycle like 4km to play basketball underneath the super duper hot sun...
when u have friends and kakis whom are not so uncle yet...
damn..i sure miss those times...
all i worry is about why philadelphia is losing so many games...
and allen iverson is not performing well...
sigh...
i don't wanna grow up can ar?
wohooo!
my master drive for 6 years finally crashed!
i suspect it was some stupid viruses i've gotten from downloading songs from a chinese site...
damn it...
i had to fork out a freakin rm180 to get a new HDD...
there goes a bit of my fund for the 70-200...
OH MY DEAR PC...
can you just be a good boy for year?
don't gimme any headache or problem within next year can ar?
so i can soon soon lei lei buy my 70-200...
reformatting and reinstalling windows is so mafan
moreover mine is an 'ahem' version...so i won't be getting all the updates...
and i really think i need an antivirus software
the license for all these softwares are counted by year...
so basically you'll have to renew and repay your license every year
and it's about USD30.00 for a year
quite expensive after conversion ler...
no free one meh?
why is this happening to me?
i never download porn ler...
i never do naughty things on my pc also...
why why why?
ok lar...so now i guess i have like almost a terabyte of HDD space...
woohoooo!
if i should stay
i know i would only be in your way
so i'll go, but i know
i will be thinking of you...every step of the way
i hope life treats you kind
and i hope you have all you've dreamed of
and i wish you joy and happiness
but above all this
i wish you LOVE...
