What ISO was that pic on? What mode you use?
 

What ISO was that pic on? What mode you use?

shutter pirority mode... iso 50 or 100 which is the lowest... i usually won't push my iso... even at night shot i will keep it as low as possible
 

OK, from what I think, it is not light sensitivity noise, rather its long exposure noise.
 

wide angle deal didn't work out well, the person didn't come to meet me at 8.30pm, instead he msg me at 8 plus pm tat he is busy and deal another day....

tele convertor, alan photo doesn't really seem interested in doing our business, he just say dun have and wouldn't bother to explain much and also unable to order for us he say. so far from what i see from flickr it seem that tcon17 should do the job well. Let me know again if u guys wanna confirm the order, then i will call cathay photo for more info or deal.

and again more photo to share:

Hello~ Where can i get fz18 battery and filter? Any shop to reccommend?

u can trying calling ms colour, alan photo or cathay photo to check the availability of the item u want...

battery mainly got 2 type... 3rd party and original, as for their price, i'm not very sure, have lost trach of the price already

filter, depend on the type, uv, ND, cir pol etc... but should be around or below $20
 

Try TK photo for the TCon 17?

Anyway I agree with skyguy that the IR pics are super noisy. =X its very obvious despite the small pic. Kinda not sharp too, some lenses are bad at transmitting IR, coz the speed of IR is a significant bit different from visible light. so the focusing should be done differently, don't use AF.

i like the chocolate cake shot! =)

haha thanks... credit to the chef for designing the cake this way
 

Tcon 17 price:
Cathay photo: $140
TK foto: $150

This is just the price... availability will still have to depend on olympus themselve... if olympus sg have it, it will take like 1 to 2 days for collect from them... if they dun have, they have no idea how long it will take

This is the unbargained price. =), push for a $15 off. I'm pretty confident TK will sell at $135 like they have been.

hey guys !

needs some help..
any idea which setting will allow me to just hold down the button and allow the fz18 to snap snap snap.. ??

get wat i mean ?

dont quiite noe how to explain it,.,

blast mode or something like tat
 

Try finding a setting called "Hi Continuous" and "Low Continuous" or something liddat.
 

Burst mode option on the fz18 can be activated by the small circular button at the bottom. its the same button which is used to delete photos..the button has a picture of a dustbin slash 3 rectangles :)
 

Hi Vinze, what you want is called Burst Mode, at least that is what it is called on FZ28.
Also, have you been fishing, ready to go again when I get there? Give me a PM
Check out this link, open entire table of contents and you will find Burst Mode
