FINALLY!

after years of hoping and begging to my mom, finally she let me get a DSLR camera!! i'm so happy! i've been wanting one for a while and i've always wanted to learn more about food photography. i really adore other bloggers who are able to capture their beauty of food in a breathtaking way. so simple yet so sophisticated.

after hours of browsing and research on the Net, i finally settle on Canon 500D. i considered 550D too, but i can't imagine what a pain it's gonna be waiting for an 18 megapixel picture to upload. yuck. so yeah, 500D it is. take a look at my baby!

i used to think that DSLR camera is bulky and heavy, but my baby is really light! though i still think it's not that easy to use. for sure not as easy as point-and-shoot-camera, (duh) but i'm learning, i'm learning!  after stucking my nose on the manual for what it seems like days and racking my brain out,I finally figured out what shutter is, aparture, exposure, iso and stuff. in theory. i still need a lot ( and when i say a lot i mean a loooooottt) of practice.

here are my first food picture taken with Canon 500D. hope you like them! it's mini cupcake, my friend's favorite and my mom's!

Mainan Baru, hihi ;)

it's been quite sometime since i wanted a new camera. sbnrnya sih gue eye-ing camera slr professional, bangsanya nikon d90 atau canon eos 450D. tapi waktu pergi ke ratu plaza untuk beli, the size of it terrified me, and the price terrified my mom. hahaha

so i get this baby instead, sony t900. dengan 4x optical zoom dan 12.1 megapixel is good enough for me. dan yg bikin gue sangat tertarik adalah dia punya in camera editing, dan scene selection yg khusus buat food!

and so i'm in love, warnanya imut dan harganya gak bikin mak gue melotot ;p

ps : i chose the bronze colour ( yg paling depan) because it reminded me of warm, nice dark chocolate! :)
