Canon IXUS 115HS
The compact camera I picked up was a Canon IXUS 115HS, with its first-party housing from Canon. The latter is coming from an eBay seller, so it’ll still be at last a week before it arrives. As for the camera

Going Underwater – Revisited
A year ago I blogged about my project to find a underwater-capable camera to take pictures of our girl swimming. The state of affairs haven’t changed too much since that post. Basically, you either get: A comparatively cheap vinyl case
BlackRapid RS4
I’ve finally picked up a replacement strap for the Optech. Many photography enthusiasts will be familiar with the BlackRapid series. Basically, rather than a strap that goes around the neck and gives you strain right about there when you’re lugging
Punggol Waterway
The Punggol Waterway is a pretty easy spot to find for us, since we’ve driven past it before when on our way to Hannah’s nursery school. The place was officially opened on 23 Oct last year, and features a roughly
Hannah @ 50mm
OK; it’s official. I have to squint real hard if I want to read the viewfinder’s information display now. !@#!@#! We’re gonna be heading out later in the afternoon to check out the new Punggol waterfront area that our friends
GGS III Screen Protector

Focus Fine-tuning
One of my relatively unused lenses is a 50mm f1.8 that I bought for cheap off an ex-colleague some years ago. The lens is a little on the long side for a crop sensor body like my old D300 and
Photographic Humor

Sigma APO 70-200mm F2.8 – Center Sharpness
Post that’s only for Matt and the student-stalker.=) Here’s a bunch of haphazardly-taken pictures during lunch time of construction work from some distance away. Source image as follows: The below are 100% crops, with the vehicle’s plate number as my
Sigma APO 70-200mm F2.8
I’ve blogged about the 70-200mm f2.8 lens range several times now on this blog and how this lens type is considered a staple for any serious photography enthusiast. The original party manufacturers manufacture these very complex lens to high specifications,
Fujifilm X100
5 Feb 2012: Decided to append more notes (it’s at the end of my post here) rather than write a new one. Original 2 Feb post starts below.=) No it’s not my camera. I can only dream! That student blog-stalker
Evening Routines @ 35mm
One of the most useful though not widely used features of the more advanced Nikon DSLRs is the AF fine tuning feature. My old D300 had it, as does the D7000. Basically, not all lenses enjoy perfect focusing around the
