Of sminky?

I named my camera. Remember how my pink sony chic was called skinny pinky, because its pink and its a skinny-T? Well this Canon baby deserves a name too. In fact all my gadgets have a name. Lolz. 


And I named it sminky. Well. Its black, and stylish, skinny for a semipro. Sminky is erm, kinda a combinations of a few adjectives ( I have my own reasons ). And so it will be known forever as Pei's Sminky S90!! (wah name got thunder bolt effect or not)


I gave it a few test shots the moment I can sit down to go through the entire manual. And my-oh-my, semipro's are quite difficult to master if you wanna fully utilize the benefits of it. But I doubt in normal picture taking would anyone wanna take funky shots with style and all. A camera to me is just something to capture the moments I treasure, and of course to play around with it like camwhoring. Hehe. The usual me takes an average of 2 seconds to snap a picture. With SkinnyPinky, thats super easy. Just switch the mode to "Auto", slide the cover down, "kachingkaching", kaotim (jobs done). 


But with Sminky S90, things ain't so easy. Gotta change the dial like for 5 seconds only can capture the moment. Haha. But check out all the cool things I can do with it. 


This is one practice shot taken with a little bunch of flowers. And in 4 other modes. Total cool-ness eh!!
Normal Mode


Vintage looking Mode. Where the colours turn a dull shade to mimic pictures taken in the olden days. 

Vintage mode no.2 (I get 5 vintage modes hehe)

Normal mode with Bogeh effect!

Colour selective mode (where I get to choose one colour to retain whereas the other colours turn into black and white)

Just one little bunch of flowers got me so many different kind of pictures. Love love love love love Sminky S90 to bits!!! 


Vday flowers

Some decor. 

KL Skyline.

The front porch of a random hotel.

You know whats the coolest mode of all? I get to avatar-ise my self. Hell yea. Its called the colour swap mode. Where I pick a colour I don't want off the picture to be swapped with another colour of my choice. 

So I simply swapped my skin colour to blue. Hehe.


I make a damn ugly Avatar man!
