Just a small caveat. When I upgraded to the 5Dm2, I had difficult "digesting" the file sizes you get from shooting at 21mp. On an average day out (amateur) I would shoot somewhere between 3 ~ 6gb, which is nothing to thumb your nose at. The gigs add up fast! Editing the large raw files also...

Sold. Thanks for the interest.

Going to do "aga"-ration based on this. :)

Don't have a meter so I'm going to get the metering off my camera instead. :sweatsm: Correct me if i'm wrong, it seems like the "shutter" action for the camera works only for Stereo and Regular 35mm modes. Darn, I'm really keen on getting pano shots, so I hope my fumbling with the pinhole cap...

I picked one up yesterday from Kinokuniya (there was 1 on the shelf after I left). It took me about 2 hours to assemble it last night (I thought it would take like at most half an hour). Majority of the time was spent getting those darn screws in properly. I only had a set of mini flat-head...

I'm leaning towards that as well, but just keeping my options open since I'm such a newb at stuff like this. :)

Hi Pablo, I'm interested to hear more about "a small/cheap voltage spike protector". The more options, the better! :) I'm quite the electronic-idiot, so pardon me if I sound like stupid. Is this what you're referring to? That is from APC (thanks to the tip-off Del_CtrlnoAlt, I've been...

I actually second Deadpoet's suggestion. Drop a note to HR and keep your contact with him strictly within a business context. This guy obviously can't get the clue even if it hits him in the face, so I don't see much point in being too "considerate". He is obviously interpreting your...

Thanks for the tips. Will check out SLS this weekend.

@Del_CtrlnoAlt: That's great news. Wanted to PM you for more details, but I figured it's not a bad idea to share the info here in Kopitiam. Did you buy them from Sim Lim Tower (as opposed to Sim Lim Square)? I remember Sim Lim Tower is better for electronics stuff. Any shops names for...

@Del_CtrlnoAlt: That looks promising! Do you know if it's available retail, e.g. in SimLim perhaps? @Deadpoet: Will it be enough to say that it is a South Asian country? For personal reasons, I'm not terribly comfortable with revealing the exact location... :embrass:

Appealing to the collective wisdom that is Kopitiam ;) Does anyone know much about voltage regulation? I may be posted to a 3rd world country for >6 months and based on my research, the electric supply there may be a rather volatile. I intend to bring my personal laptop and also my camera...

Hi lkkang: Thanks for taking the time and effort to give your comments. I think I understand what you're driving at. I do prefer it in colour though, but I agree the excess elements distract from the subject. If I remember correctly, I was a little constrained by the height and angle to...

Thanks for all the feedback. @espion: HDR is an interesting area but not something I'm familiar/comfortable with yet. @lkkhang: Never thought to do a black-and-white because it was the colours that drew me in the first place. I don't quite get what you mean by "get good aperture setting...

Just chiming in with my 2 cents, I'm a newbie myself. :) The "fisheye" effect you were going for is rather "uneven", it looks asymmetrical may be because of the angle at which you took the shots. The cruise ship at the corner of your frame looks like it is about to slide off the picture...

I really should go back another day and see how it will turn out in the morning sky. I forgot to add that the vignetting was added during post-processing, to draw the viewer's eye to subject. The original was a little too stark for my liking due to the white background. A good point about...
