Notice all standing there are non-Nikon users, hihi~ just and observation la…

I guess when they said ALL major brands in photography meant that Sony, Pentax, Fujifilm, HP and many more were not. Cos I didn’t see them there. I would say it was a good try. Reason being that this was the first time its being held. I think the most interesting bit which was not related to photography was next to the Epson booth, there were area for you to purchase your drink and sit down and have a chat with friends. I think there were about 10 tables only though.

 

Nikkor lenses

Fish eye. RM 2,798.00! wow!

Regardsless. I was there on Saturday with Raymond. And alone on Sunday. Not to say alone, I went there to meet up with some Nikonian peoples. Friendly bunch!

Panasonic / Lumix booth

Nikon Creative Lighting Studio booth

Nikon Creative Lighting Studio booth

I hung out at Nikon Creative Lighting Studio area a lot. Cos I met up with a few Nikonian on day two(final day). It was great to hang out and chat with each other. Its also a bonus that they have their models on standby so people can shoot with the CLS. One comment I heard on day 2 from someone standing at the back was ” Do they even know what they are doing? Don’t they know that they need to have a remote trigger to activate the flash ? *laff & walks away* ” Well the beauty about Nikon CLS is that the speedlites set up there can be set to SU-4 mode. Meaning once it detects a strobe, it will also fire at the set setting. No triggers required.

Queue to seminar / workshop

I missed the seminar / workshop as it was not indicated well enough. I walked passed it with out knowing. Only on second day I realised it. Oh well.

 It was really packed with photographers.  From those with big guns to hand phone cameras. And the best part everyone was checking each other out. I think I was the only one using the fish eye lens. hihi!! Anyways here are some photos taken during the Velocity Angel search. I took all the photos with the 80-200 most of them manual focus at IS800. Thats why you can see a lot of artifacts especially in areas such as the hair. So sad when I saw the results on the computer. I should have turn on the speedlite, instead of using the avaiable lighting. White balance was off too.

 

I think someone flashed her.

Another light source

rocker chic

I like her the best

She is so cute

Lolipops!

The emcee, Kim Ong

I have a shot with out the flash, but I like this more. So I’m publishing this one instead.

Since I was using manual focus, she moved forward and I could not focus fast enough. I like the mood here tho.

Like this shot the best. The few following shots were of her smiling straight at my camera. WOW.

I did bring my cyber shot t90 as well. I purposely brought it to take video with. Since its capable of 720dpi video. :) I must say, its not too bad. Only issue is that it heats up really fast and drains the battery very quickly too. Check out the video I uploaded to youtube.com

 

Oh, by the way, the gal that one was my fav, Felixia won. Congrats.
