Article of The Day: Sony NEX-7

2011-09-30T10:53:00.000+08:00

Assalamualaikum and good morning to all Mirul Photography blog readers.

Today I want to write an article about the new Sony NEX-7 which is the high-end model in NEX family. Let's take a look at the camera first.

NEX-7 featured with 24.3 Megapixel APS-C and it was the same sensor as new Sony DSLT (a65 and a77), 10 fps continuous shooting (same as Nikon 1), the EVF (which the only NEX model that have EVF, neither NEX-3 nor NEX-5 have it), Dual dial button (to adjust Aperture Value and Shutter Speed), build-in Alpha Hotshoe for flash, ISO100-16000, and of course the FullHD Video 1080p!

What about the price? You can get it at retail store at $1,199.99 (amazon.com, body only) which is around RM3,815.00 at Malaysia!! Wow what an expensive compact body! What about the lens? Sony offers their new line of E-Mount lens the 24mm Zeiss f/1.8 at $999.99 (amazon.com). You can also use the old standard lens from NEX-3 and NEX-5 (the 18-55 zoom lens, 16mm pancake f/2.8, and 55-210 telephoto)..

Zeiss 24mm f/1.8 E-Mount

As a conclusion, this camera is quite perfect for journalist who didn't want to carry their heavy gears during outstation since most journalist used to traveled either with the 2.8 lenses (16-50, 24-70, 28-70, 70-200, 80-200, 200mm and more) or all around lens (18-200, 18-250, 28-300, 24-200) which is very heavy to bring together! Overall this camera just perfect for journalist that only wants to shoot landscape pictures, wide shot of actions and more since the E-mount does not offers the f/2.8 telephoto lenses...

That's all for my review. It's depends on what the photographers loves at.. A compact interchangeable camera or the DSLR for travel. The conclusion is only my opinion about it's sizes and weight. Those conclusion are not to argue those journalist who carries a lot of stuffs during outstation since I also bring the DSLR everywhere I go even it is heavy. Thanks for reading. Enjoy!

Stay tuned for more updates!

Article of The Day: Nikon launched their new mirrorless camera, Nikon 1

2011-09-22T13:35:00.000+08:00

Assalamualaikum and good evening to all Mirul Photography blog readers today..

I just read an articles that Nikon launched their new mirror-less camera. Could it be better than other mirrorless camera especially Oly Pen EP-3 or Pana Lumix or Sony NEX? Let's take a look at the camera first...

Nikon 1 J1

Nikon 1 V1

So the J1 is the entry level which doesn't have the EVF and the V1 is currently the high-end model of Nikon 1 with flash hotshoe and EVF... V1 does have 10fps continuous shots same as Alpha SLT. So the NEX, Pen and Lumix lost at the continuous shot speed. What about the Manual settings? Does this camera provide it? If yes, could it be better than other brands? I still didn't have an answer for that.. Maybe I can explained it if I have a chance to test both camera... Huhu..

As a conclusion, Nikon offers a good compact mirror-less interchangeable lenses camera with a lots of lens from pancake 10mm 2.8 to 10-100mm 4.5-5.6... That's the pro, the cons is the sensor is too small which is 2.7x crop factor (10mm is equivalent to 27mm) and the 10-100mm looks to bulky for this cute camera.. I still recommend to use either NEX or Lumix as a semi-professional compact camera since you have a lot of choice choosing lenses from Leica, Summilux, Contax, Zeiss, M42 and much more ...!

That's all for today.. Thanks for reading. Enjoy! Stay tuned for more updates!

Ramadhan Photo of the Day: Day 8 - Photo Experimental

2011-08-08T19:08:00.000+08:00

Assalamualaikum and good evening to all Mirul Photography blog readers. Yesterday there are no topics to be updated so I decide to not to post a new post..

After tired going back home from school, I'll try to experiment a photo of 'frustration' on my bathroom... It's hard to shoot but I finally made it!

During this experiment, I already 'basah kuyup' because have to act a lots of times to get the perfect picture.. But the below one also isn't too perfect isn't it? But, wait a minute.... Does my camera get wet? Yes. I'm using Dynax 7D along together with the kitlens for this experiment due to 7D is waterproof. If you're trying to do this with your non-waterproof camera, you're better use a plastic bag to cover your camera! So the readings are 1/30sec, ISO800, f/3.5(wide open).

That's all I think... Thanks for viewing. Stay tuned for more updates! Happy Ramadhan to all Muslims. :)

Okay. Last Wednesday I'm joining my photography teacher to a place that I've never been before, Ulu Grutum. It was located at Sungai Itek where you have to drive around 3 or 4km from the main road. It has a very nice waterfall and a very nice place for people to have a picnic (maybe?).

This time, I'm not using my a200 since I have to bring my camera while I'm swimming? or walking in the water? Nah. Whatever. My Konica Minolta 7D had done a very perfect job that day like never before. It has no more backfocusing problem even at wide open!

"Asli" - Batu Berangkai

2011-04-11T22:01:00.001+08:00

Salam. Yesterday my friends, teacher and I went to Batu Berangkai to snap a few shots there especially the slow shutter picture. We went there around 10.30a.m. and it was pretty hard to park the car. Batu Berangkai was located at Kg.Batu Berangkai at Kampar, Perak. It was an Orang Asli village.

Very nice landscape and waterfall. The pool is quite deep, you feet could not reached it! I almost drown there! HAHA. Due to a very nice landscape, I decided to snap a panorama picture...

All of those picture were unedited... Only the panorama were edited using Photoshop by combining 4 different image with same exposure.

That's all for this entry. Thanks for viewing. I really enjoy this trip. Stay tuned for more updates!

Some Journalism Photos by me.. mirulalpha

2011-02-21T20:24:00.000+08:00

Salam. Street photo shooting... I was kind of interesting things for me. Since I was involved in this photography world, I'm trying to discover what is street photo is.. Because many photographers tell about and it was like some hot stuffs for teenage and "otai" or legendary photographer.

What is street photo?
Street photo is a photos that been taken candid or else on the street. Er? My explanation is quite bad. Never mind. Maybe you all could ask the Chot Touch to find the real meanings of it and get some better explanations.

What is journalism?
About the journalism... Yes, I can explain it. Journalism is an activity where you study (investigate) in curtain places and make a report to an audience. For example, you are the photojournalism that have been on duty to make a photojournalism at Thailand. Some of the example report or their study are... the culture, the arts and maybe daily life on the places.

Ok. I'm done with it. Here's some of the photos that I've taken since I'm using a200. I'm still newbie in the type of photography. So, maybe some of the photo didn't have any explanation or story?

That's all for this post.. I'm tired today. Too many things to be done... That's all guys. Thanks for viewing. Enjoy.!

Photo of the Day: "We Both Wall, But We're Different"

2011-02-20T16:31:00.000+08:00

Location: Batu Gajah, Perak

flickr Version: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mirulalpha/5458079735/

Ok. I answer your question.

2011-02-20T15:15:00.001+08:00

Salam. This morning while I'm checking my shoutbox, I found something really interesting to me..... What is it? Here we are....

Too big to load? Nevermind... I quote the text..

from pakcik (blogwalking without leaving any links or real name): umor anda brape?? sampe boleh ambik gambar2 kawen????

OK... It is an interesting question for me.. I answer in English since my blog is fully in English.

My answer is: I'm 17 years old. Yes. I'm a wedding photographer. But maybe some people will said I was too young to be a wedding photographer..? Why? Because I'm under age? No. Like my previous entry the most important things are the skills and experience doing the jobs. Ages doesn't matter for someone to doing his works or earning some money as his part time. So... as a conclusion... "Don't judge a book by its cover". I know I'm not an "OTAI" or professional or somebody else.. :)

Anything left? Nope? Ok. Hope you like my answer. Thanks. If anybody want me to answer a questions, please leave on my shoutbox (not cbox) and please.... leave your blog address together. I can answer your questions and of course.... peace no war. :)

That's all. Thanks for reading. Stay tuned for more updates..

By the way... support my Churp-Churp ya! Thanks! (^_^)

My Camera, My Life....

2011-02-19T23:51:00.000+08:00

Hi, I'm Amirul. Most people call me Amirul Alpha since I'm using that name in Facebook. Photography is my hobby since I'm held my first camera which is a compact camera maybe some people will said.. Digital Lomo? Nevermind.

Since I was involved in photography... a lots of cameras I'm using... from compacts to semi-SLR... to DSLR... and what's next? professional-DSLR? Maybe it is still a long journey for me...

But, camera is not the important things that makes a photos taken by a photographer look good. The important things is... YOURSELF.. which are..

Your SKILLS,
The way you THINK in a PHOTO,
COMPOSITION in a photo, your SOUL when using a CAMERA
and the way you MANAGE your own DSLR.

By the way... I'm currently owned two DSLR body and two lenses (kitlens and 50mm 1.8), both only the entry level one... a200 and a230.. which I'm still prefer the old a200 for Beginner, Mid-range and Pro shooter?? Why? The a200 is much better in their design and IQ compared to the new a230 which is small and some features were being removed (ex. Remote Shutter Port, AEL Buttons and Manual WB Control). Furthermore, a200 designed to gave the user more comfortable and feel when using the DSLR. Er, that's all?

What the most things that I like with the a200 is..... the vertical grip. It makes the camera looks smarter compared to the a230 which has no vertical grip (3rd party one have, but only sell in Europe).

Talking about my future, what is my ambition? Maybe a lots of people will said I will be a professional photographers or anything else as a media or whatsoever. Actually, photography is only part of my hobby and maybe to keep it as my part-time jobs for my future. It's hard to be a professional photographers and bright future? Nah... maybe dark future for me if I choose it as my profession. I'm much more interest in multimedia design and graphics.. Bright future? Maybe yes for me.

A relationship? Girlfriend? Nah. Secret. No need to tell or "kecoh-kecoh" to anybody here. But I'm always thinking my future... What will it be.... Can I be as good as what people be nowadays? Ah.. sad statements.

Overall, without camera my life is like nothings. All the things happened are moments for me and I love to keep the memorable photo which makes me remind what happened during my childhood and teenagers age in the future... I think this is the most longest entry ever that I've type since I'm blogging.

That's all I think. Enjoy reading. I'm actually didn't know what is the motive I'm typing this essay. Haha. Stay tuned for more updates.

Salam. It's been a very long time I didn't updated my blogs... Such a quiet blogs right now... pheww....

By the way, the blog didn't updated with new post actually is because of I'm travelling to Lumut and Telok Batik. I went there with my parents last Tuesday. It's been a long time I didn't come to Lumut and Telok Batik... (last time still using a prosumer camera)..

Here's my photos during 2 days trip over there....

Salam. Long time no updates since I didn't have any story to tell.. Haha.. To avoid boring, I'll try this thing by using some of my photos with Photoshop. Some post-processing have been done to make it looks more medium format photo looks alike.

Just a test. Haha. I don't think the photos looks nice in medium format. What about you?

That's all for today. Thanks for viewing. Stay tuned for more updates.

Salam. Sorry for late updates about my journal at KL.. I'm currently just back to Ipoh. Fuh, very tired. So, this entry I want to tell where I was going on day 4 when I'm in KL.

OK. My family and I went to Selayang Mall to take a walk there. I'm not shopping through but I just bought a shoes... Only 49.90. Discounted price. Very nice. Will updated later haha.

Later we have a lunch at JM Bariani House on the ground floor of Selayang Mall (outside).. I know it is expensive.. But, sometimes don't be a stingy when you are traveling! Just eat what you want!

Here it is..

...and what we're ordered is...

Bandung with Ice Cream Soda (RM3.50 each, very affordable)
Lamb Bariani (RM14.00 per plate..)

Really enjoyed it.... Furthermore, it is rainy during we're lunch..

My cousin is enjoying her Bandung with Ice Cream Soda...mmm.. tasty!

Where to I'm going next? Let's go to Pudu Plaza...! Studio Zaloon hehe (sorry forgot to take picture inside the shop)

Total lost here..
50mm f/1.8 - RM530
Nikon to Alpha hotshoe adapter - RM40
Lenspen - RM25

Total - RM595??? Only??? I thought the 50mm f/1.8 were RM599... Haha. I actually already know that Zaloon sell cheapers then other Sony Shop.. Thank you Uncle Chin for the discount and some gift! Really appreciate it..!

Uncle Chin! ^_^
and here's the lens..

Orange box.. hehehe

After walked out from Studio Zaloon, I found something very interested in front of the shop...

EXIF : 1/2sec, f/7.1, ISO400... Mounted on Small Gorillapod at the pole..

On the way home, I'll test my new 50mm inside the car.. I really love the colors and bokeh.. and like this shots a lots!

What can you explain about this pictures?

Before went home, we having our dinner first.. At Rawang. A Malay restaurant called Sup 88. We ate "kueyteow kerang" and satay... I like the kueyteow... Nyum2

Both pictures taken using newly bought 50mm f/1.8 haha.. Unedited photos.. and a candid is must for me!

I think that's all for this post. Stay tuned for the last day of journal. Thanks for viewing. Enjoy!

2010-12-05T23:18:00.011+08:00

Salam. Today we went to KL for some shoppings... This is where it starts..

We went around 12.30 pm, so were decide to have a lunch first.

What we have here is Nasi Ayam Singapura (I forgot where it located). Very delicious. Recommended.. Even the price is affordable..

Later then, we went to Sogo... After tired waiting for my mom shopping, my father and I decide to go have a walk at Pertama Complex, Maju Junction and the shops around it. But wait.... Have a drink first! I'm thristy!

Psst, I'm actually looking for camera shops that selling 50's 1.8 for my Sony.. So hard to find, the uncle at Pertama Complex poisoned me with 50's 1.4.. Arghh... Nevermind, no budget.

Later after I came back to Sogo, I saw a street artist and decide to shoot some photo of him... This is an interesting candid.. Huhu.

It's already 5pm.. So, we going to Semua House food court's to fill up our stomach with some foods... What did I eats? Want to know?

Here it is.....

So many... Which one??? =.="

This one!

Yes. Chicken Chop. Only RM7.50

Later we walked out at the street besides the Semua House (Jalan TAR if not mistake)... and I saw this guys selling shawls and kebaya.... Woah.. Nobody doing like this at Ipoh... Even there is promotions.. really happeninglah in KL!

Funny isn't it? But that's the way they selling products like shawls and many more!

Fuh, very tired today... and not in good mood... Because still didn't get what I want! That's all. Thanks for viewing. Enjoy the post!
