BBQ with friends

Posted on September 20th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Family.

Kinda like a gathering with my friends today…BBQ at my house.

Alvin, Janice, Fu Yong, Ammy, Lydia, Megumi and myself (Kho King).

New BBQ tray borrowed from Alvin. Simple and nice to use.

Some food as prepared by my wife. Jagung (corn) is very sweet, one of the best food among all. The front meal with white snow is sagu with coconut actually, very nice desert.

Sushi rice in tauhu skin. I love it!

Wife busy in the kitchen and I took her shot by surprised…

Bought low smoke coal (as according to the seller) at RM8.00 per pack of not sure how many kg. Definitely enough for the night lah…

Fire is ready…where is the food?!

Ok…on the way to the fire…

Man’s job for the fire / BBQ part (Fu Yong is at the back)..while lady setting up the table. Megumi was getting ready too…can you see the big cup on their baby chair already?!

Not a overly full dinner (for me lah…I drank a lot of O-cha (red tea)). I think we have a nice night…good to have gathering with friends from time to time.

Megumi in red skirt

My sister from UK bought this skirt for Megumi, very nice colour but size is quite big. Still can wear as Megumi is quite tall, and can wear again in future. Better than too small / can’t fit.

Thanks, Sis!

Roses in my yard…

Bought some roses last weekend, only planted one…still have another 4 waiting. My wife loves roses.

Alvin visited me two days ago, so we have some time in the yard shooting some flowers, testing his new toy…Sigma OS HSM 18-250mm lens. Quite a nice lens! Very close focusing distance and fast focusing speed (with HSM for Nikon mount!).

Ok…here are my roses…

No matter how pretty those roses are, they still can’t compete to my precious…

My Mother In Law’s Birthday!

Posted on September 15th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Family.

Yesterday…or few hours ago we celebrate our mother in law’s birthday. This is the 2nd birthday celebrations in my new house…the first one is my mother, and the second one is my mother in law’s birthday.

I went to bought a cake after work…a happy surprise to them I hope. Though I knew they do not like to eat cake, but I think it still means a lot when blowing candle and cutting cake during birthday, as an official celebration. The night before we have actually already went out for celebration dinner, but no cake or a pandan chifon cake made by my wife, but no candle and not so official…hahaa…lots of excuses…

Anyhow…here’s some photos to share.

Megumi can’t wait…in fact she has been very curious and excited when I brought the cake home. Yeah, she is holding the chifon cake made by my wife.

Blowing candle moment…

Cutting cake moment…

Happy birthday mother in law! May God be with you, protect you, give you health and guide you always. In Jesus precious name I prayed. Amen.

Connecting Sekonic L-308 Lightmeter to Nikon SB-800 Flash

Posted on September 10th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Photography.

This is how the connection between the two.

Sekonic L-308 Lightmeter is able to measure flash light exposure, and give you the correct setting. A great lightmeter. The LCD has blue backlight, very beautiful!

Connection is made using PC Sync male to male cable.

When the Sekonic is pressed, the LCD backlight of the flash is lighted up as well. Take note that flash setting should be in Auto mode.

Press the button on the right of the Sekonic and it will fire the flash and measure the exposure. It will then tell you the aperture needed for the flash.

Press the button once and both LCD will light up.

Press again and you can see the flash is being fired.

Both Sekonic and SB-800 flash are working fine connected using Nikon PC Sync Male to Male cable.

Nikon D700 Test Shots

Posted on September 6th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Photography.

Customer request to test the camera before sending it out. Tested using…not sure what lens now…forgot already…

First thing to test is of course the focus accuracy (Front / back focus), using ShaShinKi Focus Test Chart, which can be obtained for FREE from any purchase made at ShaShinKi.

See the shallow dept of field…amazing camera and amazing lens!

Another test shot…

Camera body is extremely clean. However, I find some buttons on the camera body to be a bit stiff and hard to press.

No, I still dream of a D3…with X now…

Leica M9, X1, System Brochure…leaked! Download available now!

Posted on September 6th, 2009 by KhoKing.
Categories: Photography.

Don’t know how on earth the brochure got leaked into the market before the official announcement date on 09.09.2009. That was supposed to be the biggest news release date for Leica this year…but somehow the excitement got spoiled…or will there be more surprise?

For those who are interested, I have uploaded the file below for sharing. The file size is around 7MB, copyright belongs to Leica I think…so at anytime I might have to remove it once Leica wrote to me…

This is the cover page of the brochure…showing M9 there…
