Hands on EOS 5D

Posted in General by zCube on April 14, 2009

Thanks to YuHsin of Tinydot photography, I got a chance see in the viewfinder of the Canon EOS 5D. A Camera professional photographers used to work with. I must say its an experience of a life time. I borrowed his 24-70mm L lens too!

After holding and shooting ard for a day, I felt like my 350D is a toy. Its size and weight is a huge difference. The 5D is amazing when it comes to image quality, even at ISO 1000, the pictures didnt seem noised at all. Im in love ha!

For those who dont have a chance to touch the 5D, the following URL is for u (you actually get to shoot the 5D Mk2).

And yes, its my latest project im working on with YuHsin. It will be up and running real soon.

Finally I can speed with ease.

Posted in Good Buys by zCube on March 24, 2009

I purchased this speed boot K2 Recon MSL off the warehouse sale for only 60 bucks (retail at about 500 usd). I think its quite a steal despite it being a 2005 model. I have a pair of wider then normal feet hence, before, I could never skate more then an hour in my previous boot.

Recon MSL boot, 5 x 80mm Mogema Dual-Box Frame, Ninja Minimiser Bearings and Hyper + Grip wheels! 

This new boot is fully heat mould-able, I can re-shaped to fit my feet. Jus a few more heat mould process to perfection.

Thou the current trend for speed are the higher end 4 x 100/110mm frames, i see no need. Im rather happy with my mogema and I think its good enuf for a spin in East coast with my friends. Now I got the equipments ready, CALLING ALL SKATER BOYS, LETS HIT ECP SOON!!!

Heh3 group is growing bigger…
