Pantai Kemasik, Kemaman

Pantai Kemasik, Kemaman, seperti kebanyakan pantai-pantai lain di Pantai Timur merupakan salah satu tempat yang menarik untuk merakamkan saat matahari terbit dan kehidupan nelayan. Perjalanan dari Bandar Kemaman akan mengambil masa kira-kira 20 minit. Kunjungan ke sini menjadi perkara wajib selepas menziarahi dan bermalam di rumah abang sulung saya di Kemaman. Setelah puas menikmati keindahan ciptaan Allah SWT bolehlah singgah menikmati Nasi Dagang di gerai berhampiran kampung nelayan yang membuatkan saya tersenyum menikmatinya...memanglah Nasi Dagang berasal dari Terengganu :)

Parit Kedondong, Muar

Parit Kedondong Muar, merupakan salah satu tempat yang menarik untuk merakamkan saat matahari terbenam. Perjalanan dari Bandar Batu Pahat memakan masa kira-kira setengah jam. Kebiasaannya selepas merakamkan pemandangan di Sawah Sungai Balang pada pagi hari saya akan ke sini pada waktu petang setiap kali pulang ke Kampung Isteri di Pekan Baru Parit Yusof.

Photography Tips - Buying a DSLR (Especially Used)

Thinking of buying a DSLR? Here are a few tips that might be helpful based on my experience (as a Nikon user):

• Your Budget- DSLR can be bought from as low as RM800 (body only-used). You can consider buying a used DSLR from photography forum website such as http://www.photomalaysia.com/forums. But of course you need to be very careful because some of them will stole your money! Another altenative is to buy from a well establish and trusted seller such as http://gajetdijepun.blogspot.com/, http://shashinki.com/shop/. - Recommended: D90


• Camera with built in motor or not - Few beginners DSLR doesnt have built in motor. This will give limitation when using lens that doesn't have built in motor such as 50mm where you need to focus manually. DSLR model such as D40/D60/D3000/D3100/D5000 (for Nikon) doesn't have built in motor in them.


• Shutter Count (SC) - Lifespan of DSLR is measured by its shutter count (the number of click). After certain amount (normally more than50000) the shutter release need to be replaced. You can ask the seller the amount of SC. Shutter count below 20000 can be considered acceptable for used camera. If more you still can get it if the price is right. You can know the amount of SC using this software http://www.opanda.com/en/iexif/download.htm
