Ah, did not realise that. Thanks Calebk and Ykia. =)

Actually, I have been wanting to ask this question - If I set the Picture style to, say Sharpness +3, contrast and colour to +2 and if I shoot them in Jpeg and RAW, would the RAW format also be saved as Sharpness +3, contrast and colour to +2 or to Neutral?

Yah, I know that title does not really fit in for the HDB flat. Actually, I was only taking the flats and did not realise the cloud formation until I viewed the photo on my computer. I thought it would be interesting to have captured the 'Dragon' at that point in time. Thanks for all your...

Though I have been in this forum since August this year (also started photography around that time), I have learnt a lot from the gurus here. I didn't have the guts to post any pics here as it can be quite embarassing if it's not up to standard. But I guess I will not improve much if there are...

$100? Hmm...can tell me where to get it? I am looking for a ring flash.

Well, no. I mean the colour tone. Cinema films always give that kind of tone which I like. More like sepia, but not so strong sepia colour.

I have got the Canon XM2 (or GL2 in USA) video camera and would like to ask what I can do to create that cinema effect? I have tried out the Framed Mode (which a lot of people recommend to create cinema effect) but it's too jerky when I pan the camera. Do I need to use filter for the effect...

Eh ortega, you stay in Punggol also? I am at Punggol Central =)

Thanks for all the advise. So I guess I have to go and buy a monopod and flash liao (hopefully the ring flash). Oh well, money 'fly' again =) Anymore monopod and flash to recommend? Have been trying to read up more on macro. Where can I purchase the Gary Fong Lightsphere for the Canon 420EX?

Wah, your mum so hip, also a photographer? :) I hope not to spend so much money for the time being. Your recommendations sound good, but I got to watch my pocket.

Thanks for the advise. I can give the Omni Bounce a try. How about the Gary Fong Lightsphere? Is it any good? Err...what is FE - 1?

Hi Del_CtrlnoAlt. Would you be able to recommend which monopod and ring flash is good? Somehow, I would prefer short (when fully folded in) and light monopod. The Benro MC63 good enough? Thanks.

I just bought the Canon 100mm macro lens for my Canon 20D. Need to ask if people generally use flash and tripod/monopod to take those close up photos. I have got the Canon 420EX flash, but I think a direct flash will make the subject look 'hard'. Any suggestion what else do I need to get for the...

Hearsay only lah...

OT a bit... Eh, there were rumours that the house is haunted. Did you see...errr...any other things? Didn't know it is open and people can walk into the rooms. Thought it was all locked up. Heard that construction workers tried to demolish the house but always failed. Also, got some workers...
