Outside the windows

Taking pictures outside the window is an interesting thing. Nothing can remain constant in the world now. Everything's changing and changing... When will the world take rest? The time that we are in the heaven?

I treasure everything outside the window. I mean it.

Rumors: Canon EF 70-200 f/2.8L IS II

Source: http://www.canonrumors.com/2009/11/ef-70-200-f2-8l-is-ii-announcement-cr2/

WOW!!!! After a couple of weeks, this rumor is getting closer and closer!!!

Quoted from source: "Canon announcement on November, 24, 2009 in regards to a new 70-200 f/2.8L IS II"

Hoping that it is a Hybrid IS... I tried the 7D with 70-200 2.8 (non-IS), I find that it is quite easy to have handshake... maybe the resolution is too high for 7D :D

DPreview on EOS 7D

Source: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos7d/

This is the answer from Canon to fight back the DSLR APS-C market. It is good, and it is even better than D300s. I like this 7D. When I get it on hand, I have no incentive to get the 5DII anymore. The viewfinder is so bright that you can never imagine that it is just a APS-C gear!

This world famous DPreview totally agrees with these points. You can see a long long list of "pros", with only 4 items in "cons". There seems no doubt that this product is a successful fight back...

But then?

It cannot take back the fans who moved to Nikon in these years, because of the following 2 reasons

1) Flash. Even the flash from SB-900 is better than your own 580 EXII. How can I use this gear to take protrait?
2) Wide lens. The king Nikon 14-24 beats all of the Canon L lens in the world at the moment. Then why should I choose Canon for landscape? Even though Canon did the best APS-C lens 10-22 in the world, but no one rewards it for landscape.

Without resolving these 2 questions, I cannot see why those N guys will move back to C.

PS: I'm C ppl, but I'm not C fans. Good is good, bad is bad.

RVP 100 @ Noah's Ark

Noah's Ark is one of the best place to take pictures for the Tsing Ma bridge, one of the landmark in Hong Kong. This time I'll use the RVP 100 + CPL. WOW ~~ Vivid colors of blue, green and yellow!!!

Equipment: EOS 300 DATE + 24-105 @ 24 + RVP 100 + CPL

Taking this kind of photo is comparatively easy. All we need is a simple film camera, and a good weather. YEAH!!! As you may imagine, it is very difficult to have good weather with few dust in Hong Kong, and I'm so lucky that I get a good dauy. Thanks god.

Thanks for reading!

Olympus E-P2 released!!!

Source: http://www.dcfever.com/

Finally we have the new E-P2 released. To our disappointment, it has few enhancements only...

The most featured items are
1) new EVF
2) AF Tracking/i-Enhance

3) Art filters: Diorama and Cross Process (E-to-C)

As you may see in the pictures, the new EVF looks cool~~ However, the LCD has no enhancements, and I don't think that ppl will like to use the EVF to take their pictures if using the EP-2. The art filters look good, but not really very useful. As a photographer, I look forward to the performance of the enhanced AF-tracking as well.

Anyway it is a new spot light but it is quite clear that they'll be beaten by C/N/S very soon if no more real enhancements are done.

Car trails~~

I love taking car trail photos. There are tons of scenic cityscape photos over the world, but it is obvious that Hong Kong is one of the most popular places for this kind of photos. The reason is simple, yes, you need lots of cars...

I don't like the crowded cars in Hong Kong, but I have to admit that this traffic situations offer good opportunities for taking car trails...

Words are meaningless, here are the photos...

Setting: EOS 450D + 24-105L, ISO 100, F/8

Thanks for reading and enjoy!!!
