So whatever that I write or post here are basically novice style. So if you are looking the advanced technical stuffs or professional techniques that you can find in photography magazines, well..... not HERE!!!!! Besides beginners and novices make the bulk of all the photography community. We need those simple and clear examples in using a camera. Ok lets get started.

Sigma APO 200-500mm F2.8/400-1000mm EX DG lens



Please do tell me, has anyone really seen someone carrying this 'HULK' or actually own one? Really.... please tell me. Although I have read the specs last year and the lens has been release since Jan 2008, till now I am still amazed with it. It come with an extension for 400-1000mm and the speed is tremendous at F2.8. This is not something you want to get stop by the cop or homeland security. With a whopping USD38,000, I wouldn't be letting anyone touch it not even cop. That might be a ticket for you the police station. If you tell the cops that this is a lens, he might be laughing at for a full minutes and then see the true picture. Amazing...! Anyway, It is good to see that Sigma launch this lens but got to say, why the color?
If you really need to know more about this 'HULK' well I have gathered some info on the web with regards to this lens. Most of the porting is a bit old but I bet not many of us knew this lens.

AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G



Yes its not new. Release on March this year. But I kind of miss a couple of months researching the webs  on Nikon. My first word after seeing this lens is "Finally!! Its about time a prime DX lens". And its affordable too. USD199. Anyway with great specs especially with its speed, I guess this will be a 'hot cake'. Wait a minute..........
I check at amazon....:( it is currently out of stock....Ok, I gonna get one of this. wonder is there any  user who post their image using this lens... Will update you guys. For spec and functions click the link below

Nikon D5000




images extract from nikon.com.sg




Yes! Its out. The new Nikon D5000 with the latest live view which allows you to take at 450 deg angle. It come with D movie at 12 megapixel. I first saw it the newspaper. Its loud. Its bold. Just wonderful from Nikon to come it with this camera especially during this economic downturn. Price wise is abot SGD1299. Which is considerably cheap. I bought my D50 at SGD1450 and the features to compare between D5000, is a milestone...... Just can't wait to hear the reviews. Still I am looking forward to the next after D300. You can check the official specs at
