Interesting technique bro! Thanks for sharing
Do you usually stitch all landscape-oriented images, portrait-oriented images or mixed? Would there be a difference in the final result?
I tried to google, but cannot seem to find :sweat:

Bro, initial pricing for the X100 is already out. MSRP (RRP) in USA will be around 1k USD. So after the madness die down and all, should settle around 900+ to 1k SGD.

I too had never been a fan of manfrotto.... till I saw a friend who show me his more than tens old manfrotto 190 tripod (which still looks pretty good except some rust on the screws), Kit's gear head poisoning and cathay sale.

I guess envy/jealousy is a natural human reaction... when one sees someone with supposedly inferior skills and yet with much superior equipment, such feelings come naturally...
it's just how you deal with it...

I admit to similar feelings that those people expressed, just that I stop myself and say "why feel jealous?"

btw the 'XMM' term is literally referring to young ladies in this case har?.... not the model-wannabes?

I got my manfrotto setup 2nd hand at a good deal. And I have to say, it is money well spent...

That horizontal center column has saved me so many times.

You da mei mei... Then I become chao ji da mei mei.. :bsmilie:

MMs don't have to bring green tea. The tikoh-pek photographers have to.

Bro, we all got that feeling from time to time. Envy is part of human nature. At times I also shoot out insensitive remarks... and I admit I am sour grapes during those times.. :bsmilie:

BTW, just saw a dude... his signature equipment list damn power... D3s D3x followed by 18-55, 55-200 and 50/1.8. This type I also don't know how to envy?

 

[daredevil123]

BTW are we shooting this saturday morning? Or is everyone in reservist in-camp??

yeah, agreed.
she belong's to the minority that the sweeping thread/statement covers where it with reference on the majority w/o pinpointing anyone in particular.

wah gearhead, just that its an overkill for me, even my tripod is gifted to me by my uncle, only lately after i was poisoned by DD NNB ZCA WILDCAT pics, i starting to get more into landscapes,

yup that just human nature, while others feel envy, i feel like not gifted at all, but u did told me, everyone excels in certain areas of photography, i also sour grape see Manita pics, but heck to be up early going for recce for outings, show her dedication to the hobby... i respect her more than i envy her, time for me to chase and raise my own standards up...

but the d3s d3x fellow, think he go high end body first than pro lenses later....
