New Camera, Old Model. New Post, Late Update

Yow!
How many months already since my last post. I said I will post about the new cam that I have, but.... hm. well anyways, I have the time to post now. So here it is:

Yes very old model. Not too bad for a beginner like me. Hmmm. I use this to practice and enhance my skills (as if I have any,. haha) Okay so obviously, it is a NIKON D3100 which I got December last year, 2013. Thanks to my job I have afforded to buy this.

It came with the body, 18-55mm lens, manual, camera bag, 8GB memory card, a charger and a battery. And since I ordered this to my cousin, I got a free tripod and a pre-used camera cover. Hehe

Test Shots: Aperture Priority

As promised, here are the photos with small and large aperture:

Small Aperture

Intro to Aperture

Only recently when I knew about this. :)
It's a must read especially for photography beginners like me.

That aperture is the one responsible for the focus of your subject when shooting a photograph. Technically speaking, aperture is the size of the lens' opening when taking pictures. Aperture is measured by what we call the "f stops". They are what we refer to as f/4, f/5.6 and so on..

Keep this in mind: large apertures are indicated by f/stop smaller numbers; small apertures have bigger f stop numbers. Large aperture is where large amount of light gets through while small aperture is where little amount of light gets through the lens.

Trial and Error

Yesterday, I asked my cousin to stand outside to take a photo of her and see if the camera can give a blur-background-effect that the DSLR gives. (She's just fixing her hair, she's not sad or annoyed or whatever :D )

Shutter Speed: 1/215 second
Aperture: F/4.6

Focal Length: 20 mm
ISO Speed: 80

Hmm. So, obviously, it failed my expectation coz the background is cleaaar! But still this camera serves us well. I think I'm overusing it now haha.. When I saw nice view- get the camera - snap!- connect to computer- on - off. I do it many times.. (i feel it's having side effects now, even it's quite new. We had this on the last week of April 2012). Going back, the photo is still okay, right? hahaha.. I really want to have a job NOW! As in now na.. So I can earn and have my own DSLR.. ooohh so loveeee to buy myself one.. O,O

Samsung W150F Review

I mentioned on my previous post that the camera I used in taking photos is SAMSUNG W150F. I decided to make a post about it. Yes, maybe a review. Let me show you some pictures first:

The camera is boxed with a quick start guide, a CD which contains Intelli- Studio, PC Auto Backup, Adobe Reader and User Manual. It also has, of course, the charger, USB cord and leather camera bag. And instead of a 4GB card, we had an 8GB card!
