Nikon D3, D300 launched!
As mentioned here before, the Nikon latest DSLRs are finally launched yesterday in Singapore and elsewhere in the world. Apparently, the camera shop do not have them in stock yet but I guess it would be a matter of days before the stock come in.
Prices details are still sketchy as only Recommended Retail Prices(RRP) are released. Accordingly to details posted on some forums, the RRP are
Nikon D3 (body only) - S$7999
Nikon D300 (body only) - S$2999
Updated on 29 Nov 07: A Singapore shop is selling D300 for S$2700 excluding GST.
Am I getting one? Honestly, the D300 is tempting and considering my D70 is more than 3 yrs old and showing signs of failing, I may get one. However, I may wait for the 2nd or 3rd batch of cameras to arrive before getting one in case there are some inital issues.
Anyway keep shooting.

Sunset at Phnom Penh
This is taken off the Lazyfish Guesthouse in Phnom Penh. I was on my way back to the guesthouse and I saw the beautiful sunset. I made it in time to set up my tripod and take a few shots. The background is empty so I used the few poles in the water as the foreground to hold the composition.

Spinning lady
What direction is the lady turning in?
If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.
Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.
| LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses logic detail oriented facts rule words and language present and past math and science can comprehend knowing acknowledges order/pattern perception knows object name reality based forms strategies practical safe |
RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses feeling “big picture” oriented imagination rules symbols and images present and future philosophy & religion can “get it” (i.e. meaning) believes appreciates spatial perception knows object function fantasy based presents possibilities impetuous risk taking |
Usually an artistic person is considered a right brainer. Are you?
