The Coffee Academics, Kuala Lumpur

A few days ago I was invited by Bihzhu as her plus one to a launching of a new cafe in town, The Coffee Academics. As a coffee and food lover, I just could not say no. We arrived early and was served a variety of food and drinks to try, and I enjoyed every single dish served that evening. Coffee was really amazing too, and who cares if I can't sleep right? There is always the next video to edit,

1 Inch Sensor Is The Future For Smartphone Cameras - Sharp Aquos R6

I have mentioned before not too long ago that the only way to achieve a significant jump in camera performance for smartphones is to use the larger image sensor, 1 inch to be precise. This already started happening with the Sharp Aquos R6 being released in the middle of 2021, and I recently acquired a used unit in good condition, because I was curious to see how 1 inch image sensor performs and if this truly is the future for smartphone

Street Photography With FUJIFILM X100F

To celebrate my freedom from Olympus/OM System, I recently purchased a used Fujifilm X100F for my street photography shooting.

Bihzhu is a dear friend whom I have shot on stage numerous times over the past several years. My job this time was to shoot behind the scenes photos and videos for the production. Chendering was originally a song by the late legendary Malaysian musician Jimmy Boyle that inspired Bihzhu to reimagine her own version of the song. Bihzhu has just released

40mm POV Street Photography

I have been receiving very positive comments on my previous few POV style street photography videos, so I did another one, this time shooting with a 40mm lens. I was curious about the 40mm hype - Nikon, Sony and Olympus released 40mm lenses or equivalent all within the past one year, and then there was the Ricoh GR IIIx. I wanted to take a closer look at this awkward focal length so I found a really cheap, used Canon 40mm F2.8

I QUIT - Leaving Olympus/OMSystem Ambassador Program

After much consideration and with a heavy heart, I have quit my position as the Olympus Visionary. I want to personally announce this here, properly explain my reasons for leaving the program and also share some of my plans moving forward. In short, I was completely sidelined by OM Digital Solutions when it comes to new product releases over the past year, I received zero communication from them though on paper I was their brand ambassador and I saw no point
