    Double Helix Bridge @ Marina Bay Sand, Singapore

    i think litlefiter was hoping that the IR behind would also come into focus, so recommending you set to f11 to increase DOF towards infinity. but i think this is subjective. it looks fine for me. as for "slowing" the shutter... i think some didn't notice that the river is silky looking, and...

    leaf shutter failing

    leaf shutter failing

    yup. that's what the technician said. got to change the whole body. i believe it's cos they dun have the d200 body, as fatigue suggested. yup. that was the scenario. the prognosis was that it cannot be repaired, must change the camera body. and it happened on my s2pro too.

    3 Steps to Enhance Your Pictures

    the effort is commendable! think it'll help those who are struggling with editing. think one of the next steps would be to present different editing techniques to this same scene perhaps, as this kind of processing is not to everyone's liking. if we get there, there's more things to cheers...

    audio house offer

    hi. believe the price is quite low already! considering it halved itself in a year. ha s5pro is a niche camera. does it suit your needs? that will justify your purchase more! as for your hot spots, making a guess that it's more of a technique issue than camera issue. if your camera is...
