Hannah @ 24-60mm f2.8
The Sigma 24-60mm f2.8 saw a lot of use when Hannah was a year old, but hasn’t been anymore of late since I picked up the 35mm and did micro-AF tuning of the 50mm. I picked up the full-frame lens
Hannah @ 50mm – Part 2
The 35mm f1.8D was taken out for a spin last weekend. This weekend, it was the 50mm f1.8D’s turn. I shot a whole bunch of pictures of Hannah wide-open, and as before, at f1.8 pictures were a little soft. Sigh.
Hannah @ Galaxy Note
Camera phones have really come a long way. It didn’t seem more than just 2-3 years past when the pictures you got out of most camera phones were routinely out-of-focus, badly exposed and so full of noise grain that they
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
Weekends and 35mm – Part 3
I’m torn between the two f1.8 primes for the D7000 – the 35mm and 50mm! After the in-body micro AF adjustments, the 35mm is sharp now in the image center now, and the 50mm slightly less so. The 35mm seems
Work-in-Progress – Part 4
We went by the building site for The Minton condo to check out its progress. Our vantage point this time was back to Blk 142. Just to give us a perspective – this is what the progress looked like 4
School Break in March
Yep, it came and went. And am I sad to see that the March hols left us all too soon. Hmm, I didn’t feel a sense of accomplishment from the short break. Perhaps I didn’t plan to do something that
Stargate Universe – Part 2
Continued from the last post. Storywise, you’ve sort of seen it before. Yep; it’s mix of Lost and Star Trek Voyager. Visually, thematically, and stylistically though, it draws its cues from recent dramas like Battlestar Galactica. The show is very
Stargate Universe – Part 1
I had a housemate back in Perth who was a big fan of the sci-fi series called Stargate SG-1. For those of us who’re not in the know; the TV series was a spin-off from a 1994 so-so sci-fi film
Daddy Daughter Bonding
Our about 6 year old speaker system in the living room conked out without warning yesterday evening. Quite possibly the worst time to too, since I’d just picked up a bunch of blu-ray discs – the last two Harry Potter
Online Shopping
Yang always cringes whenever he happens to see me ordering items on the Internet. I should add that I spend mostly on our girl :) I usually don’t order directly from overseas online stores. I prefer to join spree organisers
