Sorry for the semi-long hiatus. I was busy preparing my final stages of exit from my current work. which sort of halted a lot of my photography .. erhm…study.
Anyhow. It’s been a month since I acquired my new-old toy. It flew all the way from New [...]

Monday, April 14th, 2008

Welcome back to the ever informative and really basic introduction about films by a not-so-n00b, for not-so-n00bs.

Next up, I would like you take you [...]

film 101 by the level 5 n00b.

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

Ever since my stint on film photography, I was deeply and seriously immersed in my relationship with film (think snapping jaws and growling teeth whenever someone goes near my “stash”). We’re talking about scrutinizing and inspecting every camera shop that may have the slightest hint of film inside. And the swap of passion from coffee [...]

Getting to know my AV-1 better.

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

I remember when I held my former’s IXY 60 when I was in Cebu, I (with help from Frances and Joseph) took it to the next level. You can call me the Canon P&S queen (lol!). I basically can set-up any point and shoot Canon camera in any normal scenario (outdoor, indoor, cloudy, sunny, etc, [...]

double/multiple exposures on the canon av-1

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

I met up with Sir Bong Manayon today, one of the members of DPP for something regarding to what I will post tomorrow, maybe :P
One of the most memorable things I learned today from him (which I will expound more tomorrow) was how to do multiple exposure on the av-1. What was great about canon [...]

continuing onto hyperfocal distance before the fun stuff :D

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

There is also something called the hyperfocal distance relating to the DoF. The only difference is that DoF refers to a section in a photograph that is focused, while the hyperfocal distance refers to the closest distance you can get where all objects are sharp from foreground to background. mah…
this is Wikipedia’s definition for [...]
