You believe or not this is my first time to fix 35mm film into lomo camera! I bought this lomo camera from AEON Jusco SOJO shop with just RM30 (USD $10).

This is first time when my Nikon D90 DSLR meet 35mm lomo camera with underwater housing! Huge black meet small white.

Since this is the first time take photo with toy camera, want to get a ISO 400 with 12 exp but don’t have. At last get Kodak ISO 200 with 36 exp in just RM10.

It is not quite easy to fix the film. I thought pull more the better but I was wrong. Most importantly the film hole must hook steadily on the roller then everything will become smooth. (more…)

The best way to learn is go for it. For example, you can’t learn swimming without go to swimming pool. No matter how many techniques I teach, you just can’t swim on dry table.

Same way for photography. I learn photography by using DSLR camera. I have ordered a beginner DSLR (Nikon D60) few weeks ago. And just received it last week.

DSLR Means Better Photo ?

No. If you think DSLR can make your photography more beautiful, then you’re Wrong! My first few days photo with DSLR even worst than a compact camera.

You have to understand the logic and control behind DSLR gear first. Or you just can’t shoot a photo that you want.

So happy bought a Nikon D60 DSLR camera, finally! It is my first DSLR camera.

Why I choose Nikon D60? Some bloggers advise me not to do that because entry model no AF motor. Well, budget is main constrain. And I love the color and clearness of AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR kit lens. That’s why I don’t choose Canon 1000D.

I start to learn the basics of photography before get a DSLR soon. These 4 basic terms always confuse me. Will try to explain in simple way I understand.

By understand the 4 basic elements, you may snap image with effect you want easily. They are: Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO and White balance.

4 Basic Photography Elements

Aperture is the size of the opening in the lens when taking a photo. Shutter Speed is the amount of time the shutter open. ISO refer to the measure of a camera sensor’s sensitivity to light. Lastly, white balance is feature to get the colors in your images as accurate as possible.

To illustrate, these elements are represented by a situation where a man wearing sunglasses looking out from a window. Aperture is like the size of the window. The wider you open, more light go into the room.

Late post. Nikon already announce new toy D5000 early last week. Long awaiting DSLR for Nikon fans since months ago, after Canon announce 500D.

Am planning to get a DSLR for photography interest. I prefer Nikon because its sharpness and outlook design. Its previous beginner model D60 is not bad, but only 3 point. This model is what I waiting for, but out of my budget. So how to make choice?
