There's always a story to tell
photography
This week photo challenge from dailypost.wordpress.com is about “Change”
It’s like many things are going into my mind, but this one came up.
End of March Domo broke his leg. It’s unrepairable.
Well it actually can be repaired but … Domo cant pose anymore with any style related with leg movement.
That’s boring.
So I did the transplantation :P
Domo and Domi switch legs ^_^
This entry should be part of Weekly Photo Challenge: A Day in My Life
But since I forgot to make the complete photo series in one day, I decided to collect the photos i took with my iphone for the last 5 days. I arrange those photos based on common activities to describe what is a day of my life.
Routines start at the morning, walk across my neighbourhood to the train station. I used to ride my CBR to the office but lately i chose to take the commuter train. Same 1 hour trip, costly but more comfortable. No traffic jam, air con, can read my flipboard feed or playing game during the trip :)
Route #1 – Sudimara to Palmerah Train Station
Route #2 – Palmerah Train Station to City Plaza
Ok, I was too naive to say that there’s no traffic jam :) You can see that Jakarta’s traffic is getting worse and worse. Driving a car is just wasting your life in here.
Route #3 – City Plaza – Palmerah to Sudimara Train Station
And these are some photos i took on my way home.
So, what is yours? What does your day look like? Here’s your chance to share with everyone a day in your life! Here are some suggestions to get started: snap a picture once an hour and share what your day was like, walk us through a typical day for you, or even just what happened today!
If you see the red lanterns, first thing that will come up in your mind probably is China.
According to Wikipedia, The Lantern Festival in China is a festival celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunisolar year in the lunar calendar marking the last day of the lunar New Year celebration. In Indonesia, the festival is well known as Cap Go Meh.
These pictures I took a week ago (after 3 days bedrest) in Living World, Alam Sutra not far from my house. They create what they called as ‘Kampung Pecinan’ (Chinatown) in the roof top. It’s already passed Cap Go Meh I think. No wonder there’s no event like the Lion / Barongsai Dance.
Well, I went there to buy some bread not intentionally for hunting red lanterns :P

Are you a Nikon shooter?
Roadmap Nikon biasanya mengeluarkan produk baru setiap 3 tahun. Tahun 2012 kemarin entry level D3200 dan D5200 telah diluncurkan untuk menggantikan seri sebelumnya. Tahun ini giliran D7000 yang digantikan oleh generasi barunya.
Damn!
[vc_video title=”Nikon D7100″ link=”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dq9X2fxOEfY” size=”450×253″ width=”1/1″ el_position=”first last”]
D7100 adalah kamera APS-C dengan resolusi 24 megapixel, sama seperti halnya D3200 dan D5200.
Lah, trus bedanya apa dong?
Resolusi boleh sama, tapi sensornya beda. Sensor D7100 ini tidak menggunakan optical low-pass filter/OLPF (mirip dengan D800E). Dengan tidak adanya filter ini, maka diharapkan akan menghilangkan aliasing distorsion yang akan membuat foto jadi lebih tajam. Bahkan bisa dibilang sensor baru di D7100 ini sudah tidak membutuhkan filter tersebut. Untuk info lebih lanjut mengenai apa itu low-pass filter silakan klik di sini.
Beberapa hal yang menjadi pembeda D7100 dengan D7000 diantaranya adalah AF systemnya.
D7100 menggunakan Advanced Multi-CAM 3500DX dengan 51 focus point dan 15 cross type. Multi-CAM 4800DX di D7000 hanya punya 39 titik fokus dengan 9 cross type. LCD sekarang jadi 3.2inch dengan 1.2megapixel, dibandingkan 3inch 921k pixel di D7000. D7100 mampu menghasilkan video HD 1080p di 24/25/30fps, 50i, 60i. D7000 hanya 1080p 24fps. Thanks to new EXPEED 3 image processor yang ditanamkan di bodi D7100.
Perbandingan spesifikasi antara D7100 dengan D7000 kurang lebih sebagai berikut:

Gear Nikon saya saat ini adalah Nikon D7000, beli akhir tahun kemarin setelah kesana-kemari nyari (bahkan sampai ke Thailand). D7000 sempat langka karena produksinya di Thailand sempat terhambat akibat imbas banjir besar yang melanda Thailand (Bangkok khususnya). Shutter count lom sampai 2000 dah ada penggantinya ajah nih. Tahun kemarin lebih sering menggunakan EVIL camera sih karena faktor lebih portabel buat traveling.
Time to replace?
Could be “Yes” but i will go FX, not another DX.
Let say at least to D600 or get a used D700 ( no budget, i need to make money first from this D7k :( ).
It will be “no” since my D7000 never disappoint me this far. Change to another DX is not an upgrade ^_^
Perhaps if there is a D300s successor, it could be something to be considered :P
