What I am Doing Now (16 September 2022)
Besides Nikon Z 6II + Nikon 18-35mm (f/3.5-4.5) which is primarily for my cityscapes with long exposure at blue hour, I do own Olympus PEN E-PL10 and M.Zuiko 17mm (f/1.8) that I’m using for casual shots and when I want nice background bokeh. PEN is a Micro Four Thirds camera with a crop factor of …
What I am Doing Now (9 September 2022)
I’m back again in Uluwatu, Bali, but this time with my family. 😀 Unlike the last visit, I went to a few places of interest, but actually prefer just staying in the villa and chilling out. 😅 So, I went onto renting Nikon Z 14-30mm (f/4) and tested last weekend. Before renting, I was thinking …
What I am Doing Now (2 September 2022)
So, now I’m finally with Nikon Z 6II, but also thinking about introducing a bit of change to my lens lineup which consists of Nikon 18-35mm (f/3.5-4.5) and Nikon 14mm (f/2.8) . The latter will be let go, as it’s been underused and will not autofocus on the Z mount adapter. 😢 I’ve been using …
What I am Doing Now (26 August 2022)
It came earlier than I expected. Yes, after 8+ years with Nikon D610, I just (and finally!) got Nikon Z 6II last weekend! 😃 I bought it locally at TK Foto (at SGD2675), one of my trusted camera stores here in Singapore. I also got the Z mount adapter (FTZ II ) to continue using …
What I am Doing Now (19 August 2022)
Over the last weekend, I rented Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR lens from Camera Rental Centre here in Singapore to shoot cityscapes that require a longer focal length than what my Nikon 18-35mm (f/3.5-4.5) lens can cover. In Singapore, over 90% of cityscape shooting spots can be covered by 18-35mm, but when I come across …
What I am Doing Now (12 August 2022)
I’ve almost made up my mind to upgrade my body (Nikon D610) to Nikon Z 6II , but the problem is “when”. In fact, the body was sold at around SGD2,400 on Amazon Prime Day back in July, but gone back to $3,099 since then. I’m hoping that the price will go down on Black …
What I am Doing Now (5 August 2022)
Recently I turned 49. I can’t believe the fact that I’m nearing 50. That said, I want to think that I haven’t reached the halfway of my life yet, as I have a strong desire to live beyond 100! Personally I still feel like I’m in my late 20s. 😂 In a good way, I’m …
What I am Doing Now (29 July 2022)
Some time ago, when I was shooting Singapore skyline from Helix Bridge, I got approached by a guy asking me if I have an Instagram account. I said no, then he told me that he was gonna follow me. Last week in Bali, when I attended a wedding of my good friend Daniel who is …
What I am Doing Now (22 July 2022)
I came back from Uluwatu, Bali, fully recharged, but my work has quickly drained the energy. 😅 I don’t know when I’m going away next time and to where (hopefully to Japan at the year-end). Just looking forward to the next short break until the eternal break (retirement) comes. A few months ago, even before …
What I am Doing Now (17 July 2022)
Since yesterday, I’m in Uluwatu, Bali for my friend’s wedding (Daniel from “The Photography Enthusiast Podcast”, listen on Apple or Spotify ). It’s my first time in Bali, but Uluwatu is a quiet place with nothing much around, which isn’t necessarily bad for me. 😅 In fact, I’m thoroughly enjoying “me time” away from my …
