Our choices

Digital imaging is new but the technology is improving very rapidly. 4 year ago, 4Mp recording is a luxury but now an entry level camera has a recording capability of at least 5Mp.

Many established camera manufacturer like Canon, Nikon, Olympus and Ricoh are producing very high quality camera for end user. They produces a ranges of cameras for beginners and advance user. They also have a lot of special camera to satisfy the need of a lay person whom like to take quality family photos.

Digital cameras varies in quality, functionality and sizes. They are made to satisfy certain group of people.

But, one of the most important development is the emerging of new manufacturer like Panasonic, Sony, Kodak and a few more. They are gaining quite a big part of the digital camera market. Their involvement and commitment provide options to user like us. We can now compare an select the best that suit our needs and budget.

There is also a lot of information on digital imaging available nowadays. They are either on printout like magazines and books, or on digital copies like ebook and Internet web site. Both provides good support to user like us whom requires these information just to get around comfortably.

My Digital Camera

I bought a digital camera a few month ago. To most photographers, it may be an entry level. But to me, that is the best than I can afford.

It is a Sony Cybershot H5. With capability of capturing images at 7.2Mp and 12x optical zoom. I am going to try to make the best out of it.

Wish me luck!

I am back!

When I got married, things got a lot tougher. My financial situation worsten. So, I stop taking photos. I had a camera but a point and shoot version, to take photos of my kids.

Until a few month ago. I decided to spent some money on a reasonably good digital camera. I decided to continue where I had left. Digital photography offer a lower operation cost. No expensive film, no processing fee, no printing unless it is a final products.

And.... I am back...........

My Next Camera

It was fun taking photos of family and friends. But it was very costly.

So, I decided to finance myself by selling some of the photos. I was quite sucessfull. I manage to accumulate some cash and got my self a better camera.

It was a compact 35mm camera. Since the photos got better, I managed to sell more photos.

I managed to save some money and bought myself a full function 35mm SLR when I was 16. It was a Ricoh A100.

At 18, I managed to by a Ricoh XRP. A full function SLR with a program mode.

And the fun continues...............

My First Camera

I started photography when I was 13. I saw an advertisement of a camera in the newspaper selling at S$19.90. So, I sent some money to my brother in Singapore and asked him to buy it for me.

I got it a month later when my brother came back to my home town. I took photographs ever since.
