G9: Preview Secrets
Finally got some time to breath after working my intern job at the studio and finished taking pictures for school newspaper.
So... as I was flipping through the user manual of the G9, I found something interesting about it
1) (p.52) Lens Retract - I didn't know there was an option to retract the lens as soon as I press the playback button. Which wasn't that surprising, what surprised me was what I could do with the camera's preview button.
* I did not know that if I am already in preview mode, pressing preview button again will turn off the camera.
**and the BEST PART is: With the camera off, if I press preview button, not only will I be able to view the images that I've taken, but I will also be able to watch the videos that I've recorded. How slick is that!!

G9, The Ultimate Point and Shoot Camera
For all of you out there who are thinking about the little point and shoot camera that you could take with you every where, or just tired of carrying the dSLR and their lens around, G9 is the hottest Point and Shoot camera at the moment.
In fact, it was so good that I've sold some of my un-used dSLR lens, and re-invest the fund to Canon G9 and some SD card. And I would like to say so far I've been pretty pleased with it. Although there are things to be desired, but do keep in mind that this is still a Point and Shoot, it's not going to replace the dSLR no matter what.
Stay tuned for some un-official benchmarks I've done with SD cards and G9.

Hello and Welcome
Hello world,
Over the course of next year (I hope), I will be posting at least 1 post a day.
This is not only an experiment for myself, but it's also like a diary for me, so few years down the road, I will be able to look back to see what I've accomplished over the year.
