Nikon Mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera

Nikon, one of the most popular camera manufacturer had announced its Mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera (MILC), the Nikon 1 series. Nikon will join the Mirrorless camera race with 2 new model, J1 and V1. With new camera, also come with new image sensor and lenses. Nikon new camera will equip with a a super high-speed AF CMOS image sensor and the new high-speed image-processing engine EXPEED 3.

Nikon make a lot of bold claim and a long list of new feature of its new camera. I will no go through the feature 1 by 1 as the feature is a bit exaggerated, good for marketing :D. I am more interested in Nikon new image sensor, the Nikon CX-format CMOS and image processor EXPEED 3.

The CX-format has a crop factor of 2.7 which I think is among the smallest of the MILC in the market. There are sample image flying around the internet now. A simple search at your favorites search engine should give you a long list of the sample image.

I never doubt about Nikon EXPEED image processor, Nikon had further fine tune its EXPEED series for MILC and came the EXPEED 3. Again, I would not judge the image quality and sample photo are available online.

Nikon 1 series is a late comer and the question, is 1 series a game changer? It does seem that Nikon is having a diffrent approach of its MILC compare with other competitor, a smaller image sensor. Does Nikon smaller sensor really make a different? How well Nikon MILC compete against the other MILC? all there question are too early too answer, but Nikon has a huge fans base and Nikon always make it fans happy with its product. Let stay tune on more news and review for the new Nikon 1 series

Sabuti, A Burmese Traditional Food

I came across this stall at the restaurant opposite Pudu Plaza. A typical Chinese restourant selling typical Malaysian food, watan mee, porridge, pan mee, and etc. Then something caught me, some Burmese selling something call Sabuti. From far it look like porridge. When I get a closer look at it, it is soup, like the Indian ox tail or chicken soup. My curiosity tell me to try it. I sit down and order 1 portion. They serve with salt and MSG. An extra RM 1 you will get the fried beef with chili and onion, I warm you...is super hot..at least for my standard. After my first sip and I know why they serve the salt and MSG. The soup is plain, pretty plain in taste. One might enjoy it but not me. I prefer my soup to be a bit "spice". I added the salt and MSG and the soup taste better. Please note this is not a healthy way of eating soup. Don't try it too often :D The ingredient inside the soup, beef and corn. Simple but filling and I can understand why the soup is plain in tast

Alex, Marty,Melman, Gloria is setting up to their next adventure and this time the party landed on Europe. They meet new friends at the circus and enemy, the Paris animal control, and has been travel across France, Rome, London and and return back to the big apple, New York City, Central Park Zoo. Again, the movie bring us a lot of laughter and joy. Marty will always so some silly thing, Alex will always save the day will some silly move, and Gloria and Melman will always silly and in love. I love this movie because beside the fun and joy the movie bring, the movie will always carry a positive message of true friendship and family value. I think I like this sequel the most and really touch by the scene when the they return to Central Park Zoo, a place where they called home and realizing they don't fell they are at "home". They suddenly felt that they don't belong to the zoo, they really belong to the their new family at the circus. The circus is the place where
