>Alpha Techie and Lens
>During the Sony Alpha Convention, there were some exhibition for the current and latest product as well as mock-up products of the Sony Alpha dslr system.

Sony did showcase their lenses technology on the internal construction

These are the 35mm sensor and APS-C sensor on the super steady shot mechanism…

On the left is the Bionz image processor on the circuitry board and on the opposite are the glass pentaprisms for both A900 and A700 viewfinder.

Here are the different construction components of the newly launched A900…It’s damn cool to look at it…technology is so brilliant…

The following are the 2 newly announced and yet to arrive lenses….


These 2 lenses are superb combo for the full frame dslr. Still awaiting for some test shots to blow me off! Hehehe!!!
Enough for the display item…lets touch some real stuff here. There were 2 shooting stages with super bikes together with hawt models for us alpharian to shoot at. There were a couple of cameras on the display portal which we can test play with. So, here is a photo taken with the flagship dslr model, A900 paired with CZ 24-70mm F2.8…

Look how details the 24.6 megapixel can delivered….

Nice can!

>Sony Alpha Convention 2008 – The Launch!
>Last month, on the 10th, I attended a 3 days photography convention at Le Meridien, KL and it was held by Sony for the Alpha users, be it A100 till A700 users…all together was 400 pax.
During the convention there were speakers from abroad as well as local providing 8 topics to share with all of us. I’m so content gaining valuable thoughts and experience from professionals with different specialties.
Okay, I did take some photos through out the 3 days, so I guess probably it will take up 2-3 posts to complete this event posting…hehehe….
During the registration…it’s so packed….so crowded….

I think Sony should take note on this where the registration and redemption counter should have more space to queue…
George Wong, Sony Alpha Product Manager did highlighted to all of us before the convention commences that we all must attend the first day…the opening….cause there will be surprised for everyone…..
So…when everyone was in the hall….and when the lights dim….Sandra, the Estee Lauder Model Search champion holding the flagship model of Sony Alpha…the A900 walking towards the stage and George announced it’s officially launched in Malaysia and it’s available in the market on the same day itself.

The Giant poster taken with Sony Alpha A900 by Choen Lee (top photo, he’s on the right most)was revealed…

Everyone was like thrilled with it’s sharpness and details that the 24.6 megapixels 35mm full-frame Exmor CMOS sensor can delivered to the prints.

There were also some announcement on the price slashing for all the Sony lens (which was indeed a good news) except for Carl Zeiss lens…though price drop…but still can’t afford to get any of them yet….sigh….
Wokay…lets cut it short…not important one skip…then here comes the next day…during Darren Chang workshop, we all got a chance to hands on the studio lighting in Automotive photography….first time having such good experience to shoot with studio lighting.
Here are my 2 shots taken using the radio transmitter to trigger the studio lights.


I love all of them….nice…
More photos on the way….stay tune…

>My New Shoes
>
I’ve wanted to get my self a pair of new all round sports shoes (i.e. can go for gym…hiking…) but what to do…since my previous badminton shoes already wore off till I felt that I could have easily injured my foot at anytime….so I’ve scouted around Mid Valley for a new pair…but no fate…it’s either no size available or it’s too ugly for me. Hence I end up bought it in Seremban

At first…I wanted to look for a pair of Yonex…but to no suitable for me….
After having a few look at it…I thought it could be used for my gym session as well since it’s an indoor sports shoes….

I would’ve regretted if I didn’t choose it…cause I’m loving it so much….
Another thing to promote in the end of this posting….
I just got my confirmation email from Sony. Yippee!!! I’m attending! Woot! Say HI to me if you are there!
