RX100 Skinned

Probably the only ‘problem’ I find with the Sony DSC-RX100 … the way too slippery matt black surface of the camera body. Maybe it is just my fat clumsy fingers but I sure wished it has some form of rubber/leather skin to make holding it easier. Of course to be …

Partner For My 50mm

After some waiting … finally found a small & solid SLR to partner my 50mm manual lens. Some local seller eventually lowered his asking price for this minty Pentax LX … and the green covering on it is a bonus! 😀 “It is a SLR which has its body structure …

X-100 All Dressed Up

Finally time to post some photos of my X-100 … all ‘dressed up’ and looking pretty. Yeah I know … I know … it ain’t a rangefinder but just a ‘Casio rangefinder’ (a friend calls it that) that tries to look like a retro camera. 😀 Let’s not go there. …

Oh Phew!!!

Phew!!!! It is Friday night and this must be one of the happiest one in quite a long time. Finally I can take a week off from work and go for a short trip … away from the crazy stack of work that is after me. I’ve yet to pack …

Fun, Cold, Poison : Over??

My daily updates during that week long vacation in Tokyo somehow stopped at day 4. Not that I didn’t take any photos after that … but I was spending more time playing (aka killing my old fat body) with Fitzand and usually by the time he goes to bed … …

17 April 2010

It was pretty strange that I fell asleep before 11pm last night. I woke up feeling great and had to meet someone to sell off my last DSLR lens at 1030am. Since wifey was still sleeping, I brought Fitzand along for breakfast and then met up with the buyer and …

Cutie And Yummy

After the recent cool ‘gold metal’ skin by Gariz for the Olympus E-P1, along comes a super cute and colorful one that I find very very interesting. A little too cute for an old man like me and if I ever get my E-P1 dressed up like this … it …

Photographiques customises?

It wasn’t long ago that I did this interview with Catherine who runs a photography website (in French) … mostly about those ‘dressed up’/customized Holga cameras I used to do. Looking back … it has been a long long while since I’ve worked on any new design for the Holga …

Go For Gold

After seeing some of those ‘skins’ available for the Olympus E-P1, I wasn’t really impressed with any of those. They have those ‘leather’ skins (black ones seem to go well with the silver E-P1 though) and some have those ‘wooden’ pattern on them. The one that made me went ‘wow’ …

LA3

A couple of hours ago, I struggled for some time trying to get my laptop skin installed right. Perhaps I am just too fussy, I ended up removing it and sticking it back … several times! Luckily these stuffs are pretty good and stick well even after you remove it …
