    Ready made photo-frames

    Anyone know where can I get ready made photo-frames for A3, A3+ or A4 sizes? I mean photo-frames that are ready to be hung on the wall and not just frames for signs or ads. Already tried Art Friend and all the other art shops at Bras Basah but none of them sells them. Really a deterrent to get...

    Epson R1900

    New ink with 1 major change. R1900 is new and replacement model for R1800. Some improvements here and there. You can search for reviews (pretty detailed). Only gripe is R1900 is not so good for BW and may require some manual adjustments to get close. I rarely take BW, so no issue.

    Epson R1900

    Tnx Jonlock. Yes, I do realize quite a few electronic consumer goods are cheaper in the US than in SG. It use to be the other way round. The only issues I have about buying from the US is the 110V power and the US warranty only. Don't know if the freight charges will offset the balance also or...

    Epson R1900

    Anybody have used this Epson R1900 printer before? Any comment? I can't seem to find any shops selling this. Couldn't even find it at the recent COMEX. And when I asked the guy at COMEX he was just scratching his head and apparently he didn't even know of such a printer. Would appreciate it if...

    Awesome Photo Effects That Looks like a Painting

    It was mentioned that lucisart plugin filter was used for the effect. Also try draganizer as it'll give you similar effect. The effect uses high pass filter. This effect is getting rather popular these days. You should check out http://www.davehillphoto.com and you can see the master at work.

    What's the difference betw Sony HDR-CX7 & HDR-CX7E?

    Anyone know the difference between the new Sony HDR-CX7 and one just recently launched here HDR-CX7E? If they are the same, I'm just wondering why the price difference by so much. It's listed as between USD $999-$1199 for CX7 while the CX7E is currently being sold in S$2499. What a great...

    Sanyo Xacti VPC-HD2

    Thanks for the link to the dcresource review but I thought the review is silly to focus on reviewing as a digital camera with video taking capabilities when in actual fact should be reviewed the other way round. I'm personally interested in using it as a compact viewcam/camcorder that uses SDHC...

    Hi, Need to know if anyone out there who have info on where to get the Sanyo Xacti VPC-HD2 camcorder in Singapore. Need to know the price also and if possible a user review as well. Would like to hear from you. Thinking of getting it to viewcam my baby daughter before she gets less "cute" ;).

    Giving up Photography completely

    Call it photography fatigue or burn-out. It happens just about anything that we do particularly on things we eagerly plunge head-on into it in life. Remember the sport, game or toy you like once upon a time? To rectify the problem, stay out of it at least for a while. If you do happen to find...

    Please advise on how come the tulip is blurred

    Looks more like "soft-focus" to me. The tulip looks like it is in between the focussed range. Perhaps minus the flash or stronger lighting made it look soft or blurry due to less contrast (look at the range of color tone). This can be rectified by increasing the contrast in PS I supposed.

    Canon's "softness"

    It's definitely not motion blur for this shot of yours although with 1/60sec at 290mm, you'll need quite a steady hand which I can see you have. You didn't mention what make is your 100-300mm although for many normal telephoto lenses they tend to be "softer" towards the end of the range but in...
