Photography On A 10-year Old Camera: Canon EOS 450D (Updated: 16/12/2018)

As a Sony RX100 user, I loved its image quality. However, the Sony RX100 has no viewfinder, which is one of the features I personally love (and need) on DSLRs and on some MIL (mirrorless interchangeable lens) cameras.

And so, back on 28th November, my aunt gave me one of her DSLR cameras she used: the Canon EOS 450D. It is a 10-year old DSLR camera using Canon's 12.2 megapixel, 1.6x crop factor APS-C sensor.

'Jalan-Jalan' Tuesday, 20/03/2018: Rice Bowl, Ice-Cream and Ramune

Waiting for the Komuter train to arrive.

As my mother went for a holiday trip with my sister for five days, I was by myself at home. So, I decided to go for a trip on my own. On that day, I went to Mid Valley Megamall first, then to Sungei Wang Plaza and Berjaya Times Square before going home; Although it was not a shopping spree, but a simple 'Jalan-Jalan'.

Comic Fiesta 2017 Day Two Report, 17/12/2017 (Updated: 19/12, 2324 Hrs)

(UPDATE: 19/12/2017) Before I begin, as a blogger and also a cosplayer, I strongly condemn the Pepper Spray Attack which happened at Comic Fiesta 2017 Day Two at 7.00 p.m, and I hoped that this kind of incident shall never happen again next time. Click here for more info.

Continued from here, this is a blog post of Comic Fiesta 2017 Day Two. On that day, I decided to use my camera despite having a malfunctioned SteadyShot, although Anti-Motion Blur and Superior Auto modes do help a bit. Somehow, this makes me feel nostalgic, as photos from my previous Comic Fiesta visits are taken using a camera without image stabilisation; Expect some motion blur in some of the photos.

Finally, unlike yesterday's post, this post will be published once all photos and videos have been uploaded and posted here.

Comic Fiesta 2017 Day One Report, 16/12/2017 (Updated: 18/12, 0100 Hrs)

Today is exactly one year have passed since Comic Fiesta 2016, and this blog post is, once again, is about that same ACG event held once a year every December called Comic Fiesta. Unlike last year, which was held at PWTC's Dewan Tun Razak, this year's Comic Fiesta is held at KL Convention Centre.

This post also marks the first live, periodically updated post in this blog, as most of the photos are uploaded after it was taken from my Sony Xperia ZR smartphone.

Sunday Train Ride, 30/07/2017

Multi Information Display, inside the MRT.

(This article was originally started on Sunday, 30th July 2017)

As I seldom go to KL, whenever I had the chance to go there, I usually enjoy riding the trains there. Most of the time, I would ride the Komuter, the Kelana Jaya line LRT and the Monorail. Ever since Phase 2 of the Sungai Buloh - Kajang MRT line was opened, I can now go to KL city centre without having to change trains often.

And so, two days ago, on 30th July, I went on a family outing to KL by train along with my mother, my sister and her two children, making it our first MRT ride.

Penang Trip, Day Five, 04/12/2016: Going Home

At Queen Street, Penang.

Continued from Day Four, this article is about Day Five of my Penang Trip. On that day, we had our brunch and rode the ferry on our journey home. This is also my last Penang Trip blog post.

Penang Trip, Day Four, 03/12/2016: Beach, Quadracycle & Food (again!)

...at Miami Beach, Batu Ferringhi.

Continued from Day Three, this article is about Day Four of my Penang Trip. On that day, we went to a beach at Batu Ferringhi called Miami Beach, and rode a quadracycle at heritage sites near our hotel, which was perhaps the funniest moment we ever had in our Penang Trip.

Penang Trip, Day Three, 02/12/2016: Meeting My Relatives

View from second floor of Ar-Raudhah hotel on Day Three.

Continued from Day Two, this article is about Day Three of my Penang Trip. On that day, we went to visit our relatives at noon; in the evening, I went with my mother for a walk. As this is about a visit to my relatives' house, there are some photos that I've decided not to publish here. Unfortunately, this also makes it the most boring of the three Penang Trip blog posts...

Penang Trip, Day Two, 01/12/2016: Nasi Kandar, Esplanade, Heritage Sites & Murals

Merlin Hotel signboard.

Continued from Day One, this article is about Day Two of my Penang Trip. On that day, we visited a number of heritage sites including the Esplanade (known locally as Padang Kota Lama) and also, a review of one of my favourite local Indian Cuisine: Nasi Kandar.

This will be the longest of the five Penang Trip blog posts, as I took the most photos on that day.

Penang Trip, Day One, 30/11/2016: First Arrival

On my way to Penang.

It has been nine months since I last went for a holiday in Penang (Pulau Pinang). My last trip was okay, although I didn't write about it here. I even took a number of photos on my last trip, but only a few gets published here.

And today, in this new blog post, I am writing about my latest trip to Penang, from 30th November to 4th December 2016. In my writings are my visits to various places of interest and also, what makes Penang so famous for, the food (after all, they don't call Penang as 'Food Heaven' for nothing!). It took me a long time to write and complete this writing, since the hotel's WiFi service was so problematic that I can't even upload all of the photos taken.

LOW-LIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY

A crescent moon and a morning star (Venus), the moon's full shape appears to be visible. f/4.9, 2.5 s exposure, ISO100.

In this new blog post, I'm going to show you my selected low-light photos that I took using my Sony Cyber-Shot RX100 digital camera. I bought this camera on 20th January 2014 to replace my Sony Cyber-Shot W1 that has stopped functioning since mid-2011. This camera uses a 1" type image sensor, which is capable of delivering clean and noise-free images at 20.2 megapixels.
