Strapping on a Canon E1 Hand Strap

Image
Just to share with you folks on how this seeming simple to use but slightly complicated to attach E1 Hand Strap. It took a while for me to secure the E1 Hand Strap onto my Canon 40D, but it turn out that i had strap it in a wrong way after i found the below guide. Do take note that if you choose to use the Hand Strap, you will still be able to secure your neck strap. There is another condition for using the Hand Strap, if your Canon camera is not a EOS 1D series, you will need to mount a Battery Grip in order to use it. These are the few that require a battery grip - D60, D30, 1000D, 450D, 400D, 350D, 300D 5D, 50D, 40D, 30D For me, i had to mount my battery grip on my 40D before i could use the Hand Strap. But in the end, i still prefer the neck strap. Just make sure you are comfortable with whatever strap you choose. Have Fun. Click on the image to get a better view.

How to check for dirt and dust on a DSLR Sensor

Just thought that i repost this but this time its on my blob. Here's the simple test you can do anywhere to check for dirt and dust on the DSLR sensor : Materials required : Plain Blank White piece of paper (A4), Appropriate camera lens (Try to standby 2 lenses if you can, if not, 1 lens will do. The second lens is to verify the results of the first lens if "suspected" dust is identified). 1) Fix up the lens to the camera to be tested. 2) Switch lens focus mode to manual. Adjust focus to infinity. 3) Set the aperture to its smallest value (largest number), at least f22, f32 if you have it. 4) Take a shot of the white piece of paper. Try to fill the frame with the paper sheet so that all you get is a blank, white image. Make sure the shot is "bright" enough. Don't worry about camera shake as it will not matter. 5) Select "Playback" from the camera(or download the picture to a computer) and zoom(a least 4 -5x) into the picture. Scroll around the pict

Here are some nature stuff for you to stare at. These shots was taken at HortPark(Alexandra Road) during a sunny sunday morning on 24-Aug-08.

That's my friend on the right, trying to steal a shot... macro style 2. 3. Nice pattern 4. V 5. Heavy feasting by some crawlies. 6. 7. Eco friendly bike 8. Mr Spiky 9.
