<br />
The time has arrived when Sony replaced the popular NEX-5N with its successor, the NEX-5R. In basically, the same form factor, Sony has managed to improve nearly everything and add some unique features in what I think will be a very popular camera.<br />
<br />

NEX-5R</div>
<br />
The first thing that I wanted to try out was how fast the new hybrid auto-focus speed has improved from its predecessor as it was always my main concern with NEX cameras.. How fast compared to the competition remains to be seen but there is a noticeable improvement from my little hands on session.<br />

Next I was really excited about the WIFI. However, I wasn't able to try it out since PlayMemories (required app to be used with the camera) hasn't been released yet. However, a few of the apps were already installed on the camera and it worked perfectly.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
NEX-5R tilted down</div>
<br />
Amongst its other improvements, the LCD screen can also flip up like the NEX-F3 but can still be tilted down for those overhead shots which the NEX-F3 can't do. The NEX-5R remains to be the only touch screen in the current NEX lineup and it also seems to be more responsive too. Not smartphone responsive but better than the NEX-5N.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
One of the main complaints with the previous NEX-5 cameras was the lack of controls and dials. This appears to have at least helped with resolve the problem without compromising too much on the form factor. The addition of a function button as well as a top dial are of course welcome additions but the lack of a built in flash which is featured on the entry level NEX-F3 may disappoint a few.</div>

NEX-5R Shooting Layout</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Those are the main improvements on the camera. The menu layout is slightly different with the addition of Application (side note: I think it should say 'Applications' instead) and the shooting layout virtually the same but with the addition of the horizon level. Its shaping up to be a good follow up to the '5' series cameras for the NEX line. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
For Australia, the pricing will be as follows:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Body only: $799</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Single lens kit: $999</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Twin lens kit: $1299</div>

<br />
Its been a while since I've last posted anything on my blog but to get back into the habit I'll be posting some of my video review and tutorials as well some of my snapshots and opinions on cameras and anything photography related.<br />

As the title suggests, this post is about the new Sony DSC-RX100 camera that has recently been released. It has been getting rave reviews on the web and as David Pogue of the New York Times writes, "The best pocket camera ever made". In this short review I'll be explaining to you why I agree with this statement and whether its worth it for you to spend your money on this camera. <br />
<br />
Firstly, its svelete design is nothing short of excellent with its simplistic body and button layout, anyone can become accustomed to this camera. It has a nice selection of camera modes from Program, Aperture, Shutter speed and Manual settings all the way to its Intelligent auto modes and Sweep Panorama. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The control wheel on the lens allow you to change your settings easily without having to go into the menu or pressing a lot of buttons saving you time and hassle to get that certain shot. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The pop-up flash is tucked away at the top of the camera and will pop up when need be. What I like about this flash is that you can also bounce it by pulling back and facing up. <br />

Now lets talk about how small this camera actually is. At first I was surprised because when I read it was going to have a large sensor, I thought it would be the same size as a Canon G12. I was wrong and its pocketable and not to heavy for me to carry around which is perfect for those times when I don't want to carry around my a77. The only thing I wish the body of the camera had would be a grip like
the one in the DSC-HX20, although the style that Sony was going for
would have to be completely different.<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
Featurewise, there are so many packed into this camera I wouldn't know where to begin. It has all the usual Sony features such as Sweep panorama, 10 frames per second continuous shooting, picture effects, auto-portrait framing mode and a whole lot more which I won't get into further detail. <br />

Of course the big feature of this camera is its one inch sensor which is in fact the same size sensor in the Nikon J1 and V1 cameras but with a 20 megapixel sensor. This is a big advantage compared to other compact cameras offering better overall image quality and low light performance. Paired with the superb Carl Zeiss lens with an aperture of f1.8 at the wide end and f4.9 zoomed all the way in you're getting image quality approaching DSLR quality with smooth blurry backgrounds.<br />
<br />
One new feature not seen in many Sony cameras is its ability to take photos whilst recording a video. Its a really helpful feature that I'm sure many people would appreciate. Its simple to do and just by pressing the shutter button, you'll be able to capture a moment in the video and turn it into a still without any interruption to the video itself.<br />

As I mentioned before, image quality is the main advantage of this compact camera and it performs very well with clean ISO up to 1600. Noise does creep in afterward but its still acceptable till ISO6400.<br />
<br />
Video quality is good as well with the ability to capture full HD videos in AVCHD format in 50fps or 60fps depending on your region or mp4 for use on the web. Active SteadyShot, a more efficient form of the standard SteadyShot is built into this camera to help stabilize whilst recording. <br />
<br />
<br />
After using this camera for a while I can definitely agree that this is the best pocket camera ever made. Although you are paying quite an expensive price, it still is a good purchase because you're buying a camera that approaches DSLR quality but in a compact and pocketable body and beats out the competition in the compact camera class. If you value excellent image quality in a pocketable form this camera is the perfect choice for you.<br />

<br />
Sony have just announced two new cameras that replace the NEX-C3 and the SLT-A35, the NEX-F3 and the SLT-A37.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_8GkQ7o0eZ8mY5R_EJB_qF2k_I-NrHTXw-bZ2t37m6JD9QZVlWONjTyiaO_5SyERhl-5JjWoVKyg4FLw1rQfgJepmXhdopVhmItGvtNrQrOupFHgbjYH6mOEYKXo5JkaXfe9OQScuFEA/s1600/NEX-F3_wSEL1855_self_2_BK.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="448" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_8GkQ7o0eZ8mY5R_EJB_qF2k_I-NrHTXw-bZ2t37m6JD9QZVlWONjTyiaO_5SyERhl-5JjWoVKyg4FLw1rQfgJepmXhdopVhmItGvtNrQrOupFHgbjYH6mOEYKXo5JkaXfe9OQScuFEA/s640/NEX-F3_wSEL1855_self_2_BK.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
The NEX-F3's standout feature is the flip screen that lets the user see themselves as they take the photo. As well as the new screen, a host of new features debut on this camera such as clear image zoom and auto-portrait framing.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
The SLT-A37 replaces the SLT-A35 and comes with an improved viewfinder and a tilt screen, similar to the one on the DSLR-A550. The standout feature of this camera like other SLT cameras are the continuous frames per second shooting speed. This camera can deliver 7 frames per second in tele-zoom mode and 5.5 frames per second at full resolution which is impressive for an entry level camera.

Here are a couple of videos talking about the function and features of the camera with two lenses that were announced alongside these cameras (one for each mount).<br />

<br />
I recently just went to Hong Kong and Macau and it was so much fun. Although, I only stayed for four days but during those four days, I did so much sight seeing, walking, eating and of course took so many photos that if I shared them all, this would be a very long post. I love the culture, the history and all the sites that I really want to go back there. It's obviously different from Australia as every country has their own unique identity but this place was amazing.<br />
<br />
I brought two cameras with me. The a77 and NEX-7. I ended up using the NEX-7 the whole time with the standard kit lens. Also note that these photos are all straight out of the camera. No post-processing here. Hope you enjoy some of my snapshots!<br />

The feature that I find most interesting in this camera is the auto-portrait framing mode. If you're taking a photo of a person in this mode, the camera uses face detection and the 'rule of thirds' and crops the frame to give it a more professional look and this works in both landscape and portrait. It also saves both the original image and the cropped image. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">Availability for Australia would be around mid April with pricing as follows:</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Body only: $899</div><div style="text-align: left;">Single lens kit w/ 18-55mm lens: $1049</div><div style="text-align: left;">Twin lens kit w 18-55mm & 55-200mm lenses: $1299</div><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Well overall, I think its a good upgrade to the a55 offering some new unique features and the bigger body is a good move in my opinion but I wonder why they left out the GPS option (not that I ever use it). I'll do a video review as soon as I get one in my hands. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

<br />
I've pretty much neglected my blog and my self portraits for a long time due to other commitments and let me admit, laziness as well but I'm back now showcasing what I love doing and that is of course, photography. I recently had the chance to take photos at the Australian Open of Surfing at Manly, thanks to Sony. I had the opportunity to try out some of their professional lenses such as the 300mm f2.8 G lens, 70-200mm f2.8 and 70-400mm f4-5.6. It was a great day and I had the chance to meet some awesome people from the various camera stores around Sydney. Luckily, the sun was shining and the crowd and contestants put on a good show. Here are a few photos from the day.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I just thought I would extend the invite to all my readers who are interested in the latest camera gear from Sony (Alpha and NEX cameras) to subscribe to my YouTube channel. Basically this channel is me reviewing new gear and giving tutorials on how to use Alpha and NEX products as well as talking about photography in general. I'm open to suggestions on tutorials and requests for lenses and other accessories for review. This is a fairly new channel and videos will only get better so check it out.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So far I have reviewed the following:</div><ul style="text-align: center;"><li>Sony a77</li>
<li>Sony a65</li>
<li>Sony NEX-C3</li>
</ul><div style="text-align: center;">And I have made a short tutorial on how to use sweep panorama and picture effects. I'll have a couple more reviews and tutorials (hopefully) with in the next few days so stay tuned and thanks for watching!<br />
<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone! This self-portrait was sort of my Christmas themed one (changed my idea a few times). For Christmas 2011, I dressed up as a pudding for my friend's party. It was full of stuffing and it tempted all of my friends to continually chase and tackle me. This inspired the shot of the pudding chase where I envisioned myself being chased by a mob of hungry Johns because I looked pretty tasty.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The photo was taken with my camera mounted on a tripod and pre-focused. I took several shots of myself in different positions and outfits. I then merged all the photos in photoshop to get the final image.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone! I saw a photo by Wesche Photography where he was pouring red wine into his mouth and I was inspired to do the same thing. I like his idea and you can check out his version by clicking <a href="http://wesche.deviantart.com/art/If-I-was-red-213490020" target="_blank">here</a><i>. </i>As you can see, it was a big fail for me but it was so funny trying to do this. I completely missed my mouth and the coke poured into my nose. I had the weirdest fizzy sensation in my nose.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i> </i></div><div style="text-align: center;">This shot was taken with my camera lying down on the ground with a flash mounted on top of the camera. I had the remote cable in my hand and I was taking the photo at 8 frames per second so I could pick the best shot later. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone! Today I thought I would do a silhouette with the a77 and the 70-400mm lens. I love this combo and I shoot with it quite a lot now even though its quite heavy.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i> </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i> </i></div><div style="text-align: center;">The photo was taken with Marione helping me with the lighting and angle of the photo and after that we mounted the tripod to set up the shot. The camera was pre-focused and metered to get the silhouette effect. The camera was on a self-timer for 10sec. Enough time for me to get ready in the shot.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone! Today I thought I would try another experiment but this time with my cousin's camera mount suction cup (thanks cuz!). I always wanted to do something like this but I was a bit scared because I was afraid the camera would fall and break and its actually on loan so I was even more afraid. I wanted to capture the light streams of the street lights with me in the car. I couldn't do this properly because I was using a NEX-C3 and I couldn't trigger my flashes but it worked well enough. I'll do this again when I have my own rig that can support my a77.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i> </i></div><div style="text-align: center;">The shot was achieved with the NEX-C3 on a suction cup with a camera mount on top. The flash was also attached to the camera. I took a number of test shots and ended up using shutter priority. The camera was set on a 10sec timer and I quickly rushed to my car and started driving. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i> </i>Hi everyone! This photo was more of an experiment and to see how I would look. The powder turned out great but unfortunately my face didn't and that's how it was for a few photos. I just couldn't change my facial expression lol. It was a fun but messy photo in the studio.<br />
<br />
I took this photo with my camera set on a tripod with it pre-focused on myself. The camera was on a 10sec timer and I had to time my jumps to catch myself in mid air with the powder going everywhere. I also used two flashes off camera on my left and right.<br />
<br />
Gear used:<br />
- Sony a77 with Carl Zeiss 24-70mm f2.8 lens attached<br />
- two flashes (HVL-F58AM and HVL-F43AM)<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hey everyone! Whilst driving today, Marione and I were talking about what would happen if I was wiping my face and my mole came off or if it was really just dirt on my face. We were joking and laughing about it and I thought I would do it as a self-portrait. For those of you who don't know, I have a mole on the left side of my face. You can check out my other photos so you know what it looks like but how do you think I look without the mole? </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I took the photo with my camera setup on a tripod with a remote cable connected to it. I used three flashes for this shot. Two flashes were facing the backdrop to get the white background and the other was used to light my face. I had the remote cable in my other hand to trigger the camera.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone! As the title suggests, its my feminine side. You have to admit, we all have one, well the people that I know have one. With the help of Marione, she transformed me into a female version of myself which I shall call Johanna. This was quite awkward but hilariously funny at the same time and kudos to Marione for coming up with this idea and it definitely brought me out of my comfort zone which I initially wanted in my self portrait photos. <i> </i><br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i> </i></div><div style="text-align: center;">The photo was done with my camera set on a tripod connected to a remote cable to trigger the shot. This is two photos in one and merged together in photoshop. I shot the male version of myself first and then shaved and then got all prettied up for my feminine self and took another photo. Very awkward!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone! So I've finally watched all the Harry Potter movies and I was thinking of going to the Harry Potter exhibition that is on at the powerhouse museum. So if I were to go there I thought flying on my filo broom would be my mode of transport.<br />
<br />
I took this photo with my camera set on a tripod and pre-focused where I would be and set the camera on a 2 sec self-timer. I took quite a few photos just to get the timing right. Marione helped me with a bit of editing in photoshop with clarity and contrast and extending the broom.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone! Have you ever thought about how much work you could get done if there were more than one of you? Or if you ever thought that you could do a Kage Bunshin (Naruto term). Personally, I think it would be awesome but in reference to work, the only copy of me actually doing something useful is the one in the orange shirt washing the dishes. So come to think of it, maybe I wouldn't get much work done =.P</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I took five photos and merged them all in photoshop. The camera was on a tripod connected to a remote so I wouldn't move the camera at all. I did different poses and I was in different outfits to make each individual stand out more. <i> </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
Catch a train to Circular Quay and catch a ferry to Cockatoo Island and check out some crazy artworks at the Outpost. It's awesome and the travel there is worth it too, mainly because I hardly ever catch a ferry. There are so many artists showcasing their work from paintings and sculptures to movies and interactive activities. One of my favorite places on Cockatoo Island was this section of hanging t-shirts. It looked so cool and I liked the gallery of portraits that were displayed underneath. The whole place was so inspiring. If you haven't checked it out yet, you have until December 11th to go there and enjoy a massive artistic exhibition.<br />

<br />
With Sculptures by the Sea finished for another year, I thought I would catch up with my month long absence of posting with a snapshots post. Sculptures by the Sea is an annual event in its 16th year that exhibits artist's work from Bondi to Tamarama. Its a free event and if you want to attend you'll have to wait till next year since its already finished so if you missed out on it, here are a few of my photos.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone!<i> </i>In the spirit of Halloween I thought I would do a self-portrait that would fit with the occasion. I was sort of going for a Jason Voorhees (Friday the 13th) or one of those slasher film villain looks. I wanted to be holding a machete or a huge knife or even an axe to add more to the photo but I didn't have any and a small kitchen knife wouldn't do. Anyway, Happy Halloween!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I took this photo with my camera mounted on a tripod turned slightly turned on its side to get a bit of a tilt in the photo. I used two flashes with red gels on light stands behind me and the camera was triggered via a remote cable.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
It's been quite a while since I've done a snapshots post but today I'm bringing it back in a lead up to Halloween. From Hyde Park to Elizabeth street to Prince Alfred Park a swarm of zombies plagued the streets, stopped traffic, chased civilians and invaded a 7/11 store. Everyone was in great character, moaning and growling and it was one of the most funniest and the most unique walk I've ever did. Can't wait for the next one. Enjoy the pics! <br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hi everyone! I used to drive around a lot to the city and pretty much anywhere at night taking photos in different places or just hanging out with friends. I was more a nocturnal person compared to what I am now, getting up at four in the morning to take photos. I guess this photo is a tribute to my old nocturnal life.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I took this photo in my car with my camera set on a tripod in the driver's seat facing the back. I used two flashes, off-camera on light stands. One was outside next to the door I was facing and the other was at the back of the car. I used a remote cable to trigger the camera and flashes. I didn't actually take this self-portrait in the city. It is instead two photos in one, where the city background was taken a long time ago and I my self-portrait was taken today. I merged the photos together in photoshop to the best of my ability (my photoshop skills aren't that great) and this is the final result. <i> </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
