Sony NEX5N + Minolta AF 100 - 200 mm F4.5 + LA-EA2

Some Sample photo of the Nex-5N and the Minolta AF 100-200mm F4.5 couple with the LA-EA2 of course. Not so clear, but the only option you can get for SGD 110.00. Picture of moving subject will be difficult with this, put up a sample of some puppies taken with 1/200s shutter speed.





 Is it not obvious that I am promoting my new blog!! Hehe..

Videography + NEX5N + Tokina 11-16 F2.8 and SAL35F18 + LA-EA2

The camera shutdown due to overheating after about 10 mins video recording on 1440 x 1080 MP4. About 7 mins was continuous recording with the Tokina 11-16 while another 3 Mins with the SAL35F18. I include some short clips in lower resolution for your sneak preview of the Sarawak Cultural Village  show. My comment on the show; great show! Makes me proud to be a Sarawakian.

NEX5N + LA-EA2 + Tamron 28-75 F2.8 + Singapore National Day 2012 Fireworks

I could n't get a nice spot, but I find this picture extraordinary for the Firework display of Singapore 47th National Day 2012. Thanks to the shaking of my tripod by the packed surrounding.

I have trade in my Tokina Lens with this Tamron 28-75 F.8 at Alex Photo in Peninsula Plaza. It was a swap. I know, its a lost but its better than selling it for RM1200 and buying a new Tamron . This Tamron seems to be in a 9.5/10 condition with box and my box I didn't bring. Having said this, kudos to trade in shops like this, it makes this hobby much worthwhile.



A little tips to those who plan to buy Singtel prepaid data package in Singapore. You can use unlimited Internet for SGD6 / day or SGD15 for three days and SGD25 for a week, check this link. However, You need to purchase a sim card worth SGD15 ( The card says SGD18-probably some discount) . Then you need to top up your balance to purchase the data package. There are SGD 10 and SGD 20 Top ups available, so do your accounting. When purchasing the data package, you need to be sure that you do every step as insructed and you have to be sure to reply through SMS your confirmation of purchase and receive a full confirmation from singtel as well. While doing this, ensure that your data networking is off or otherwise, you might finish your balance on expensive data charges (trust me, I wasted my SGD20  balance on this, in few minutes :(   ) .

NEX5N + LA-EA2 + SAL35F18 Test Picture

I tested the LA-EA2 and the SAL35F18 Combo. The DOF is shallow but it is sharp and the AF is fast cannot see much different than the contrast AF though. Anyway, the portrait of the cat that comes to our house everyday.



The crop eye.
