12th January 2008 – the Sony Alpha shootout in Midvalley! We were given 10 categories to shoot; at the end of the day, we’d submit only one.<\/p>\n


\nGood luck flowing in.<\/p>\n


\nTop of a cherry?<\/p>\n


\nProud parents.<\/p>\n


\nThe curve.<\/p>\n


\nThe fish under the bridge.<\/p>\n


\nThe kopitiam.<\/p>\n


\nThe narcissist and a trespassing giant.<\/p>\n


\nThe wall being posed with.<\/p>\n


\nThe Tamron 28-105mm F2.8. Whoa nelly!<\/p>\n


\nThe portrait session free with a purchase of makeup products.<\/p>\n


\nThe… the… *<\/p>\n


\nWander, boy.<\/p>\n


\nHer wonder.<\/p>\n


\nDarren<\/a>‘s Sigma 300mm F4 APO Macro versus the big white Sony 300mm F2.8G SSM. Also spot his Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 EX DG!<\/p>\n


\nThe Sony Carl Zeiss 85mm F1.4 has strong liquid color… though it’s a bit too contrasty at times. It makes a great compact, very bright medium telephoto prime lens.<\/p>\n


\nThe TT (teh tarik, or technology transfer) session after that.<\/p>\n


\nThe picture I chose to submit. No, I did not win the prize, a Sony 16-105mm F3.5-5.6 DT. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

* the shot was from later when I tried the Sony Carl Zeiss 85mm F1.4. It responded very well to the Neutral Creative Style.<\/p>\n

I’ll be in Redang for a company team building exercise from Wednesday to Saturday, so don’t expect any updates till then!<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
