Alamak!!!

Went to see fireworks on both last friday and sat on both teams, Spain and China at Marina. Purpose was also to take firework pics. Oh my gosh, so many people, waiting for the moment. Luckily i went there 3 hrs early to ‘book’ the best positions for the shoots.

Was satisfied with the pics i had taken on friday, though not that perfect cos of the smoke generated by the firework. I managed to take few quite gd shots from the beginning. However i was not satisfied with the shots taken on sat, that’s because i had chosen the wrong spot.  I had initially intend to take the pics outside the esplanade on the big field in front of the supreme court, so that i don’t have to sequeese with the crowd. But i didn’t, cos i don’t like the mossies there, after having a big rain…haizz..in the end, only 1 or 2 shots from sat are ok…sianzz.. 

Disappointment!!!

My existing fujifilm F470 spoilt recently and have it serviced. It sucks, after having spoilt on my 2nd day Krabi trip (zoom and playback not functioning) and the night scenes pics also sucks, turns out ghostly pics, simply worst than my 1st fujifilm F401. I had lost completely confidence in this brand as both cams spoilt for no reason (1st cam display spoilt due to its CCD problem; 2nd cam spoilt before its warrenty expires)…:( Also its customer support sucks!! Its service center is at Paya Lebar, which is so inconvenient due to its expansion MRT link, that i always have to take a cam there for service…sianzz. Recently i had tried to find F470’s warrenty card and i accidently found something: Made in China!!!! Oh my goodness!!!!!! Also just know that it got 3/5 stars from reviews because it simply lack of other features. Disappointment!! Think i better get a better cam..
