Little Devil learn how to Order Roti Canai in Mamak

We train our kid about democracy from young age. We do lotsa things by voting one but of coz I kena inject some realism into the so called democracy by having the veto rights also la LOL!

Last sat nite i suddenly got this urge to eat roti canai so i asked both my wife n kid "Who want go yumchar?" immediately Lil Devil raise his hand and said "ME" ... but my wife not so keen she said "I dun wanna eat la .. i on diet!" but too bad ... its 2 against one ... we won! lol

Our regular mamak is not really far from our house, during the ride there Lil devil pop me a question ...

Lil Devil : Ahpa ... the roti canai with eggs is call what? I want that.

Me : Its call roti telur .. T... E...L...U...R gedit?

Lil Devil : TE -te LUR-lur telur ... roti telur .... roti telur .... roti telur *keeps repeating*

Me : Ok you know roti telur ledi later u go find the mamak uncle and order yourself ok?

Lil Devil : ok! roti telur ... roti telur *still repeating*

As we arrive at our fav mamak it was kinda crowded so me n wife go look for an empty table n fast fast "chup" it while Lil Devil seems to be looking for his fav mamak uncle to order his Roti Telur with him ... after looking high n low for the mamak uncle while mumbling he managed to catch him at the kitchen. From where we sit we can see that the uncle bend down to hear what Lil Devil gotta say and moment after that he burst out in very LOUD laughters!!! VERY VERY LOUD ONE till whole restoren can hear!!!

After awhile the Mamak uncle holding Lil Devil's hand and bring him to our table still giggling when he reached our table .... the mamak then said :

Me : KAKAKAKAKAKA!!! oi aneh bukan ROTI TOYOL la!!! ROTI TELUR LA!!! KAKAKAKA!!!

Something All Malaysian Car Drivers Should Know

I frend of mine got into a little accident with a motorbike this morning while fetching her kids to skol. She was at this traffic light waiting for it to turn green, and so the light turned green and she stepped on the pedal and out of no where there is this motorcycle with a whole kamoung onnit (minimum 4 person on a bike, 3 chewrens without helmets + 1 adult) jumped in front of her like he got a lisen to go first and expect cars to give way to him lidat.

Too bad there arent enough time to brake and lucky for the bike the car were oni begining to move only, thus the momentum isnt enuff to send everyone on the bike flying tot he middle of the busy road ... still enuff to trip the kapcai and everyone onnit onto the side of the road. Lucky enough no one was hurt other than a damaged paria kapcai.

the bike owner demand compensation from the lady driver and not the one who broke the law the lady driver refused to pay the bike owner and in the end both party agrees to make polis report.

Now, in your eyes ... who is victim in this scenario? who is the guilty one? I'll make this easier for you guys ... i'll give u an option and you choose the answer ok ?

a.] Bike owner la! bcoz the barger no follow law ... over load + no helmets

b.] The car owner la! for obstructing the bike owner from doing his daily stunts n make everyone missed his show.

c.] Town planner la! who ask the barger never make spesel road for overloaded law breaking motocycle?

d.] JPJ la! who ask them issue lisen to these kinda motorbike drivers? (this is not applicable if the motor owner tarak lisen ok?)

e.] All the above!

f.] none of the above!

be honest with your choice ok ... what you gonna find out later will shocked the shit outta you wan!!!

I acherly discussed this topic in my facebook (thats why its wise to "fwen" me in your facebook bcoz i do lotsa crazy stuffs there wan lol) prior to this post in my blog.

These are the responses i got ... ignore some of those incoherent one ok? Igot lotsa looney fwens in fb wan! lol

Question : Someone told me ... if u involved in an accident with a bike rider /mat rempit .... doesnt matter if its not your fault ... u will still be on the wrong side?! Anyone got experience in this? Lidis kalo still got law meh?

David V : what law? UM-law?

Michael K : u r alone, they r in a grp . . .how ?

Wingz -> Micheal : not only mat rempit ler ... i mean motobike in general ... if they fler langgar u also kira ur fault wor

Kenny Y : if mat rempit alone, then you can fight back. but if a bunch, you are DEAD WRONG!

Wingz -> kenny y : not specifically mat rempit ... i not so much bother about mat rempit also bcoz most of the either takde lisen or moto curi ....

Sasha : they say if u bang motor no matter what u wrong. dun care rempit or not.. u wrong.

Kenny N : If you involve road accident with Arabs in Meddle East, for sure you are the only person fault no matter how.

Michael K : well . . . heard if bigger vehicles is always in the wrong

Wingz -> sasha : if motor wrong also I kena saman? he no lisen also i wrong?

Wingz -> kenny n ... we toking msia lar ... u out of topik ledi ... kambek kambek

Kenny Y : yeah. but try to stay out from their way. cos they might just want your car instead.

Kenny Y : yeah i am talking about malaysia la. deng!

Wingz -> kenny y : wat toking u?

Clare : Korek korek korek korek korek! There is this knock-for-knock law in insurance that states along the line that if you are driving a car and you knock into a motorbike, even if you are not at fault, the motorbike rider can claim your insurance for bodily injury apart from his repair and make you lose your NCB!

Wingz -> clare : yalor mch lidat mana fair? pkm!!! whois the victim here? those motor luan luan drive wan .. tarak follow law then accident edi ... the car driver also suffer. WTF LEH!

Clare : Their insurance cheap cheap only. Bike also cheap cheap. That's why cincai zoom here zoom there lor.

If they knock you, you kena saman. If they suddenly spasm and swerve into the path of your car also you kena saman. I wonder who pass that fucked up law hor. #$%^!

Besides, you seldom see people driving BMW and Merc or Ferari luan luan drive wan. It's all those cheap car/motorbike driver luan luan drive wan I tell u :P

Wingz -> clare : sigh .... which idiot pass this law wan?!!! its LAW like this that created MAT REMPITS!!!

Tan : Mat Rempit = Mat Cemerlang = National Treasure = National Pillars.

Ms Ong : Yup, heard my dad say it is.

Steve Austin : Hit them... then run like hell!!!

Trius Blades : can alwiz claim self-defence

C. Goh : it is.. sad sad reality... happened to my own folks.. :S

the blardy rempit tried to escape a road block ahead by making a u-turn and it hit my folk's car.. had to compensate the blardy idiot..something which i really don't understand..

There! I told you rite? the results will be shocking one!! You get penalised even tho its not your fault! Malaysia Boleh?! ... who made this kinda rules one? this is the reason why Mat Rempit is so daring! This law directly encourages Mat Rempit activities!

What say you?

Another question I got asked alot is ... how is the 7fps speed priority mode in the Sony Alpha a550 performs.

Prior to that i wish to make tell you that the IQ in the below images dropped by alot after the JPEG to GIF conversion. I think the GIf animation would be the most suitable method of showing what this 7fps Alpha a550 can do and not so much on the image quality (IQ) of the alpha a550.

To be able to shoot 7fps first you gotta enable it. By enabling the 7fps speed priority mode your will be disabling some of the Sony Alpha a550 features while you are at it. Focus point and exposure will be locked.

Thats means if your object moved closer or further from your camera then you will get blur images. The camera will only remember the focus distance and aperture and others settings from the first image and apply that to all the images that you shot until you let go of the shutter release button.

The below animated GIf is a animation of 32 images taken inside the gondola of a cable car in Langkawi during the Sony Image3 media Tour.

Impressed yet? Sub RM3k DSLR body that can do 7fps .... you be the judge ok? :P

Sony Alpha A550 ISO Performance - Indoor Low Light

__________________________________

I received a few requests from fler alpha users to post the sample photos of the Sony Alpha a550 ISO performance is low light situation.

In my previous post here I post sample photos of the Sony Alpha a550 ISO performance in a place where light is abundant and therefore it is kinda difficult to gauge how well does the new Exmor Cmos sensor will perform if light is not as abundant, after all higher ISO number is all about balancing the lack of light in your enviroment rite?

Click on the above image to see the larger version.

Initially I wanna put all 7 images separately but i thought that would defeat the purpose and arranging them side by side would actually makes the comparison easier.

There is 7 choices of ISO level in the Sony Alpha a550, it starts from ISO200, ISO 400, ISO800, ISO1600, ISO3200, ISO6400 and ISO12800. Thats how the images are arrange, the lower you go, the higher the ISO gets.

Before we go any further I would like to say that i m not much of a pixel peeper myself, I believes that when an ordinary person looks at an image, he do not zoom into certain part of the image to look at how are the pixels constructions for that particular image.

When a regular normal person look at an image ... we just see the image as a whole and what kinda story / feelings we can gain from the whole image itself.

Ok back tot he above images, from what i noticed all images from ISO1600 and below is perfectly fine. The presents of noise in the image is close to none, which also means that if you owns a Sony Alpha a550 you could use up to ISO1600 anytime without hesitation! the only questions will be, do you need ISO1600 in the enviroment you are currently in.

Grains/noise started showing up @ ISO3200, just a little its probably not even noticeable if I didnt tell you about it. To a photographer like me, the ISO3200 photos is still very acceptable and i would rather bump up to ISO3200 (70%) of the time rather than grab the big ass flash guns from my bag and rely on it for lights.

@ISO6400 its still bearable, if i do not own any f58/f42 flash guns I would gladly switch to ISO6400 and get the photos that i want.

@ISO12800 ... seriously ... do all dslr cameras do this? the last ISO is always almost un-usable. Not unless you wanna turn your object from a still photos to oil painting like image! would like to call this phenomenon the Oil painting ISO.

This exist in most of the DSLRs i get my hands on, try this out yourself! Try this yourself, borrow your friend's dslr and switch it to the highest ISO and take a photo in low light condition (indoor) and take a look at the image you just captured .... it seriously looked like an oil painting!

In a nutshell, I think the Sony Alpha A550 ISO performance is pretty awesome. I been using the Sony Alpha a200 and anything higher than ISO800 will result in getting oil painting images. Same goes to a buddy of mine whois using the D80 "photos started to show grainy effect @ISO1000 and above" he said.

So there you have it, Sony Alpha a550 sub RM3k body that gives you great images @ higher ISO range! Really a bang for your bucks!
