Actually I didn't even bring my camera(s) with me.
I just took a few shots with my friend's camera.
I am not too excited about the idea of taking photos when you travel.

On the other hand, I brought my 1DsM3, 5Dm2 & my G9, plus quite some lenses with me with my trip to Japan/HK the past Jan.! I would regret big time if I don't..! Then again.. I am photography-lunatic .. in some way.. anyway..!

That's right. It also depends on where you go to. I went to Hawaii just to relax and to spend some time outdoor, so having a big camera with me all the time would be an undesired burden. If I go to places like yellowstone or alaska, then maybe I would want to bring my camera along.

作者: 快樂牛郎 時間: 2009-7-8 16:05

And also, I don't really like taking pictures unless I know the place well enough. I am not interested in taking "scenic" photos. I want my photos to convey what I feel about the place.

第二张怎么那么像在中国拍的

作者: Catpiano 時間: 2009-7-9 09:43

It is easy to take a small DC ..  go HK ..  just small DC is ok ..  ( nowadays small DC, can take good pic )

Even Japan ..  US  etc ..  IMO ..  one small DSLR + 1 or 2 lens and flash is more then enough ( 40D etc )

Unless going to Europe or some special travel area ..  ^_^

Biggest reason for me NOT to bring big DSLR for travel .. is TAX ..  dont want Canada Custom to bug me ..  ( even I bought my gears here ..  but they are so ma fan )

作者: chobit 時間: 2009-7-9 11:24

I hear you!  Canadian custom is a pain...!  but I am sure it has to do with all those people who are always trying to avoid being taxed...!!

Honestly, I carry 2 DSLR with many of my shoot, just because I would really hated, if my camera fails w/o backup!!

Just the opposite of 快樂牛郎.  I enjoy so much taking pictures at new places, and don't when going to places I know well...!  I also really enjoy the time that I spend photography..!  To me it's one of the most relax state of my mind compare to my busy daily life!  (excluding wedding, or work related photography works)

At this time, I still don't think a regular DC can do what I want in most cases...!  I am still waiting for an inexpensive 35mm rangefinder to come out.., but I don't mind waiting for another 5 years.. haha!!

作者: Catpiano 時間: 2009-7-9 14:24

Um .. Us spec and Cad spec may be different .. no dual lens kits here ...

Right, but I like the geometrical balance of this one
And I guess teh couple doesn't have to be the center of focus
I don't really have any important message to get across anyways. Just wanted to shoot a landscape that looks like a painting

siumaibb 發表於 2009/7/22 09:07

no, L1 is a 4/3 format, not a micro 4/3 format

compared to the L1, the E-P1 is only slightly lighter and smaller (with optical viewfinder and 4/3 converter) but much more expensive.

I got my brand new L1 with Leica kit lens 14-50mm f2.8 for less than the retail price of E-P1 body only.

An E-P1 with Leica 14-50mm would cost $2000 at retail price
An E-P1 with Leica 14-150mm would cost $2500 at retail price

Also, I expect there will be more improvements on the E-P1 in the near future, but the L1 is a dead model. You are not gonna find any new model that looks like it.

So, I did go to the photo walk on Sat, it was fun, since I've picked to go to a city which I wouldn't be going if it wasn't because of the photo-walk. It's supposed to be a 2 hours walk, but turned out to be 3 hours, so it was quite a long walk. There was a guy who was crazy enough to carry 3 DSLRs with him, but othewise most of us are just there for the fun, with minimal amount of gears.

The lens I used the most is the Lens-Baby, which I have to admit was fun to play with!!

Yes, I did enjoy my time there =D

作者: Catpiano 時間: 2009-7-22 15:21

Yeah ..nice pic EL ..

I love the lensbaby too!

Is yours the 3G or Comp?

I like the effect from the 3G more .. but not so handy .. lost the "Fun+snap" idea of lensbaby .. so I end up got the Comp ... however, effect is not as strong as the 3G ... dont know if I will get the 3G one as well .. ( look weird too )

作者: chobit 時間: 2009-7-22 19:12

I have the comp. came across it like 2 months ago, and this is probably my first time really have it on the camera for real shooting!! But it's kind of fun...! And the effect is quite extreme for my taste, since I was actually shooting it at f/5.6 add-on.

作者: chobit 時間: 2009-7-22 19:26

What do you think about this one!? It's not that special..but I wonder if people know how the effect was created on the left side of the picture!? Non-Photoshop!

作者: chobit 時間: 2009-7-22 20:07

Oops.. got one more again...

作者: 快樂牛郎 時間: 2009-7-22 21:21

ya, it's too crazy for me

作者: Catpiano 時間: 2009-7-22 21:44

Nice .. I end up using the lens baby more then the real T/S lens ...

The comp is just super easy to use ... ^_^

Actually I have not taken a single photo with my new camera yet. It's still sitting at home. I am waiting for my telephoto lens to arrive.

I took "Lost in Space" in a public fountain near Downtown Seattle.
