All these years, I'm using Olympus compact digital cameras. Despite many times I changed camera; I stick back to Point-n-shoot camera because it is rather convenient and hassle free to operate.
Lately, I admire many nice photographs on the internet posts. Those photographs are so beautiful. No matter how I tried using my existing camera, I couldn't get the same result. So, I decided to "indulge" myself with a better and more expensive camera - DSLR camera.

But again, there are so many DSLR branded cameras in town, such as Nikon, Canon, Sony etc . Which one is suitable? I’m searching around for a while, I meet many promoters but they are either impatient or lack of knowledge about the camera, I ended up with disappointment.
This is the lady promoter that I mentioned in my blog |
Only recently, I met a lady promoter who is selling Olympus and she managed to explain the functions of the camera clearly. At the end of the presentation, I already know almost 80% of the camera. She is not just keen in selling the camera, but she was rather patience to teach me how to use the camera. I was glad of her service and bought the Olympus E-PL1.
Although it is not a full DSLR version, it is something in between of DSLR and Point-n-shot camera. It is new hybrid camera that has Micro Four Thirds with mirrorless interchangeable lens. It produces quality pictures comparable to some of the expensive DSLR camera. But most important, is the service level that influence me to purchase it.
Yesterday’s night, I attended to photograph training session organized by Olympus and glad to meet up with the trainer - David Chua, a renowned professional photographer. Although within short time of two and half hours session, he taught me quit a bit about professional photography. I realized it is not easy and quite techniques to shoot a nice photo. I appreciate his help and I added him to my facebook. I hope I learn more from him in the future.
Wow, can’t wait to try some of his ideas in photo shooting, will share with you in my future blog.
