Sony A200

It's been some time never update the blog.

I'm bit busy with work after malay raya, and before the raya, I'd get myself a new gadget, Sony A200, the DSLR. I'm looking for a consumer DC, because I do not have a proper camera, even when I went to Europe, I borrow my sis's DC as my primary camera and HP lousy camera as secondary.

After some research done about the DC on the net, and the sample photo, my budget to folk out is enough for me to get a prosumer, and initially I put my eye on the Panasonic Lumix FZ28, a camera with 10.2mp + 18X optical zoom + 4X digital zoom (you can shoot a clear moon surface with all this figure!), and a body that looks alike DSLR, I'd get my advice from my cousin, Ivan, a hardcore photographer (he own a Nikon D70), his advice, go direct to DSLR, don't waste $$$ on prosumer.

I have to estimate another 50% more budget for a basic DSLR, equip only the kit lens, the same night, I went to Harvey Norman to test all the camera, I'd decide to go for DSLR, and after LOTS of hour doing research on the net (yay I'm freaking FREE before raya!!!), I decide to get A200.

After a few research on price and reliable shop, I decide to pay Boeing at Sg. Wang a visit, and had swipe back my A200 the same day........ <1>expensive than my DSLR.........damn I'd poisoned...

Sample photo that took via my A200,

Impreza WRX STi Spec C

I love 4wd, and always wish to get superb handling 4wd, either Evo, Impreza or a GT-R. Today, had gone for a dinner, Louis, my cousin is there, and he had get himself a Impreza WRX STi Spec C, version 9, an unregistered Impreza, from Zaibi Motor, lucky fella, I drove my mom's Iswara only when I was 20........

I'd tested it in Kesas highway, it's my first time driving in a 280bhp turbo car, and the Scooby's reaction is very direct, the suspension is stiff, of course, most of the car will let you pass by, automatically, when you're on a high speed cruising at the fastlane.

He get it for a week only, and it still stick on the stock exhaust, so I can't really enjoy the famous sound that pumped from the boxer engine. Hmm, 210k RM for a hobby, I have to earn more $$$, hope can get my Evo in the near future...

Evolution of Laptop

I have to work, although if I traveling. Normally, I'll bring over my sister's bulky 14.1" Compaq Presario laptop whenever I travel. It is bit heavy, bout' 2.4kg, and it is damn tiring to bring it around.

So I'd get myself another laptop, the Dell Vostro, 12", and it is 2kg, and I'm quite happy with the weight, and the thinkpad wannabe design, it looks rough, and reliable, and most important, it is small enough for me to bring it around.

2 weeks ago, my sister went to the PC Fair, and bought the newly launch MSI Wind, size, impressively it's only 10", weight, 1kg, and my Vostro looks gigantic when put beside it, damn!
