D.I.Y. Fisheye Lens
Since I bought my E-500, I had been dreaming of a fisheye lens. But until now, I still cannot afford one. What I like about the fisheye lens are the effect of the round distortion and it can cover super ultra wide angle of sight... Read More...

Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan

Teluk Intan is one of the stop of my one-day food-hunting journey while on the way to Penang from Kuala Lumpur last weekend. You are not considered here before you visited the Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan. It's just Malaysia's version of Pisa Tower... :)

I had a chance to climb up the tower. Well, the authority there only allowed us to climb up to second floor. While I'm inside the tower, my body was tend to move to a side automatically...it's proof that the tower is the leaning one...haha... :D



Welcome to Teluk Intan...

Bottom part of the water tank...The tower also served as water tower...


Even the heritage site cannot run away from vandalism...

Teluk Intan is one of the great place to visit when you are in Perak. For a great selection of places to stay with discount prices, visit Perak Hotels for more information...

On The Way To Penang...

Last Saturday, my friend and I went to Penang to attend wedding dinner of our boss and meet up with some ex-coursemate. We moved at 9.00am and planned to stop at few towns in Perak for local foods and delicacies. But time don't really allowed us to stop in all planned town and we only managed to stop at Bidor and Teluk Intan...

First stop at
Bidor. Why you are at Bidor if you don't try the infamous Duck Thigh Noodle (鸭腿面)..


Pun Chun Restaurant, where the Duck Thigh noodle (鸭腿面) shop located...


The infamous Duck Thigh soup (鸭腿汤) and wantan noodle with char-siu and wantan...VERY NICE...


Duck Thigh soup (鸭腿汤)...VERY NICE...


Wantan noodle with char-siu and wantan...VERY NICE...

..and local fruits...


There are many fruit stalls along the same street as Pun Chun Restaurant...


And selling varieties of local fruit...


One of my favourite fruit, Mango...My tips, buy the most expensive species...It was so sweet...VERY NICE...


Another favourite fruit of mine, Guava...VERY NICE...

Then, we proceed to our next stop, Teluk Intan, is also my friend's hometown. We went for the infamous 'Chee Cheong Fan' (猪肠粉) of Teluk Intan but unfortunately to no avail in the noon. So, he introduced me to have some cold beverage of Cendol and Ais Batu Campur (ABC) located near SMK St. Anthony and SMK Convent (both are secondary school). The ABC there was so nice and till now I'm still longing for it...


The 'Chee Cheong Fan' (猪肠粉) shop...


The ABC stall...


Keropok with rojak sauce...VERY NICE...


Hawaii ABC...VERY NICE...


Koko Krunch Cendol ABC...VERY NICE...

On that afternoon, I'm like living in the heaven with all those delicious delicacies...Hmm...Where's the Leaning Tower of Teluk Intan? It will be in my next post... :)

Then, we proceed to another food's heaven in
Ipoh but we did not stop there because of lack of time. What a waste...So, we continue our journey to Penang and reached there on time for our boss' wedding dinner. After the dinner, we went to Kulim to meet up with our long(really)-time-no-see ex-coursemates and chated till late night...

Next morning, we went to
Prai to meet up with another ex-coursemate and we proceed to the famous Raja Uda Dim Sum shop. There are so many people having their breakfast there and we need to wait for 10 minutes for our seat. The Dim Sum was OK to me...


The Dim Sums...


Ordinary 'Chee Cheong Fan' (猪肠粉)...


Siew-mai...


Deep-fried prawn roll...

After breakfast, we went to Segafredo coffeehouse in Juru Autocity to have our chat before my friend and I came back to Kuala Lumpur at 3.00pm...


Segafredo menu...

It was a tired journey but really WORTH it with all those NICE and DELICIOUS foods and delicacies... :D

Olympus E-520 and ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6

Olympus has launched the E-520, an update of its E-510 DSLR. The E-520 represents continuity, rather than revolution within the E-System camp. This process of orderly transistion sees the arrival of contrast detection AF at the E-5XX level of camera. This feature does not represent all the camera's new talents, however, with a larger LCD and Face Detection doing their utmost to add buyer appeal.

Wireless flash and Shadow Adjustment Technology (Automatic Gradation), also make their way down from the
E-3. Like the recent E-420, the buttons on the E-520 have been re-colored to make the camera easier to use by people with certain types of color-blindness. Olympus also says the dynamic range of the E-520 has increased, compared to its predecessor, and is now close to the level of the E-3.

And this model will replace
E-510 in my wish list. Hopefully can get this DSLR in 2-3 months time...hahaha...hopefully..

At the same time, Olympus has also launched a consumer-level wide angle lens for the Four Thirds system. The Zuiko Digital 9-18mm F4.0-5.6. The lens, that offers fields of view equivalent to 18-36mm in 35mm terms, males extreme wide-angle zoom more accessible to users of the Olympus E-System, Panasonic DSLRs and selected Leica Digilux cameras.
