well i finally got the camera.
2 days ago i went over to KL with jocelyn and sandra in search of a camera for a good price.
we started kinda late, cause ms. sandra chan didn't want to wake up earlier than 11am. so we left at about 12 ish...
**i'm going to keep this short, as i do not seem to be in the mood for blogging right now.
we had a quick mamak lunch and i went to the bank to get some cash for the camera and off we went to busy kuala lumpur!
first stop was pudu plaza. since we didn't know where it was, other than it being somewhere in pudu, it took us about an hour ti find the place. reason why we went there was because ted said that they sell cameras at good prices. but sadly, there was only 2 freaking shops there and they both didn't sell the camera i wanted.
pudu plaza was a freaking scary place. you could see old people walking around as if they were going to beat someone up, the whole place smelled of insence, and it was full of "La La" people.
so we got out of there as soon as we could.
then we headed over to sungai wang, and that was where i finally bought it.
the winner of my never ending decision of my fickle minded brain.
the
olympus E-510.
its quite a cool camera.
here are some of the specs:
- built in image stabilisation
- some really good dust reduction system
- live view (like those you have in your typical point and shoots)
- 10mp (like you cant tell from the picture)
- uses the four thirds system
- what ever lens you put on it, the focal range is x2
i bought the twin kit lens, so i have 2 lenses with a focal range of 28-300!!
it still has more stuff. but
i'm not in the mood to post it up.
anyway we bargained and stuff. but thanks to the 2 girls that came along with me, i was able to get a better price. if i were alone i would have probably paid a bomb. thanks
san and
jox :D
after all that buying, we went over to some place which was having a warehouse sale clearance
thinggy. the girls went to buy their stuff, while i just hung around the place not able to buy anything as most of the
mens clothes were already gone.
next stop was pavilion!
the girls had this fabulous idea if walking from one end to the other on each floor! it wouldn't be so bad if it was a short building, but this building had about 7 storeys! my legs almost dropped off. every time they entered a shop i looked for a chair and just sat down. seriously should never go shopping with girls man. they will be able to beat even the toughest athletes when it comes to shopping.
anyway this is the cool new shopping mall that has opened in
bintang walk. its freaking huge, has really high ceilings, looks all nice and "new age" according to
san, and most of all it has J FREAKING CO!!
i first had J.CO doughnuts when i went to
jakarta. and it was freaking good! weird thing was that everyone that was working there seem to be from
indonesia too. they must have brought a bunch of them from
indo to start up the franchise in kl.
so anyway, we bought 2 dozen doughnuts, ate half of it there and the other half was for me to bring back home.
after all that doughnuts, our next stop was to get back to
sungai wang. went there, and it was back to more shopping again. this time there was less walking
aroung, cause everyone was starting to get tired.
we headed home at about 9. i was so happy to be able to sit down and just drive. could finally rest my legs.
sent
jox home, then went to camp5 with
san to discuss with soon
seng what we were going to do for our bosses upcoming party, and after we went to
eckywooby for super.
went home after.
ok, didn't have that much pics, as my trusty
sanyo ran
outa battrie, and my new camera needed to be charged before it could be used.
anyway, will post more on boss
jeremy's party soon!! its on
sunday!
