E-P1 Has A Little Brother

Most of you will know that I love my Olympus E-P1 lots and not too long ago when its little brother … the E-PL1 was launched … I did mention that it looks ugly and ain’t too interested about it. A friend recently bought a black E-PL1 and told me …

Nikon 35Ti : Test Shots

Took some time off from baby sitting and spent a couple of hours with friends for a short shoot. Finally I can finish my test roll on the recent 35Ti I picked up … and as a matter of fact, I even got to finish another roll on it! Perhaps …

LB Soft Focus Optic : Analogue Test

After some initial test with my DSLR, I decided to try out the Lensbaby Soft Focus Optic (SFO) on my cheap old film SLR. I know that the Lensbaby lenses can work very well on that SLR but I was a little worried about the metering when using the SFO. …

When Old Meets New

Dug out a beautiful condition Canon IVsb rangefinder camera from my cabinet just the other day to give the (cloth) shutter some workout. This time I loaded a roll of cheap expired negative to give it another round of exercise but managed to only shoot 4 shots. Hahaha! Damn. I …

Look What I Bagged This Xmas

This must be the coolest X’mas ever! I got this present from my wife and she told me to stop using that boring little black camera bag (a small Domke) because it looks so boring. Hahaha! Yay! It’s a Herringbone VOL leather camera bag! Cool! Well she didn’t actually pick …

He Came, He Drank, He Bought

Durian!

I’ve never been a fan of durians but Fitzand loves it. He has been asking me to buy him some for about a week already. Each morning before sending him to childcare, we’ll go have breakfast near the market and whenever he sees (or smells!) durian … he’ll ask me …

Plastic Surgery

While the doctor might need to melt a hundred Diana cameras to get enough plastic to make me look real good … I hope you don’t get worried by this entry’s title. I am still the same me. 😀 The plastic surgery was meant for my Lensbaby instead. I wasn’t …

TTV Photography : DIY

I’m half dead when I’m typing this at around 1am. Forgive me if what you are reading here doesn’t make any sense to you. I only found time to do these a couple of hours ago after Fitzand went to bed. It is usually late at night that I have …

Tiny Mini : 1st Touch

I must admit that I was very excited to test drive the Diana Mini when I received it yesterday. I was curious how it will perform … will ‘she’ produce photos that are close to what its elder sister (the Diana F+) can churn out? Is it just a cute …
