New EF (L Series) 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM Lens
12 years ago
Iseng-iseng lagi compare Tokina AF 100mm f/2.8 AT-X Pro D macro dengan Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM macro, eh…nemu link Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM.Wow!!gw pikir mata udah mulai siwer nih, tapi ternyata benar adanya dan berita resminya ada di… http://www.usa.canon.com. Bagi para Canon-ers khususnya ini adalah lensa makro pertama yang menggunakan teknologi mutakhir dari Image Stabilizer (IS) yang mereka sebut dengan Hybrid Image Stabilizer (IS), yang katanya mengkompensasi efek Angle camera shake dan Shift camera shake. Jika klaim ini benar ini akan menjadi keuntungan yang signifikan untuk para makro mania dan tidak perlu lagi menenteng tripod kemana-mana. (more…)
10th Tumplek Blek 2009
0
Tumplek Blek 2009 sudah memasuki tahun ke-10 dalam pagelarannya. Event ini berlangsung pada hari Sabtu – Minggu, 2 – 3 Mei 2009 kemarin dengan lokasi Plaza dan Parkir Timur Gelora Bung Karno pk.08.30 – 21.00, HTM Rp. 20.000,- per orang. Untuk sejarah singkatnya bisa langsung dikunjungi di sini. Gw sendiri datang ke event ini hari minggu kemarin, tanpa tahu mau cari apa disana nanti :p. Dengan berbekal sebuah kamera dan ditemani oleh seorang gadis gw kesana hanya sekedar jeprat-jepret dan niat untuk bahan postingan di blog *spontan tersipu* .
Aniway..Gw nyampe skitar jam 2 siang, pas banget dengan terik matahari yang menyirami Senayan waktu itu…udah panas macet pula. Yang dibonceng aja sampai ngomel-ngomel, padahal tinggal duduk manis. Kelar bermacet-macetan, kita dikejar-kejar calo tiket walaupun hanya beda seribu rupiah tapi ga tahu kenapa gw bersikeras tidak membeli dari mereka. Semoga memberikan efek jera kepada mereka dan mencari pekerjaan yang lebih layak lagi daripada jadi seorang calo *apakata duniaaa* :p. Yang menarik saat itu adalah stand Minerva, penuh sesak…Minerva tahun ini mengeluarkan 3 gacoannya type sport, naked dan supermoto. Melihat antusias masyarakat tahun ini bakal terjadi pertarungan sengit di kelas 250cc terutama dengan Ninja250r. Saya angkat 3 jempol untuk type sportnya, cakep banget aura Itali-nya terasa banget di motor ini, tapi yang disayangkan adalah spesifikasi mesinnya yang masih mengadopsi single cylinder SOHC dan mampu memuntahkan power sebesar 16.2 HP, beda langit dengan bumi jika disandingkan dengan Ninja250r yang bisa mencapai 36HP pada 11000RPM, spek lengkap bisa dilihat disini, dan penampakan secara utuh bisa dikunjungi disini. Dan liputan lengkapnya sudah bisa dinikmati disini, thanks om stephen.
Pameran Foto Jalanan 2009
4
Sekitar jam 5 sore hari Sabtu kemarin (25/04/09) gw dapet sms dari satliyo, pesan singkat tersebut berisi nada ajakan untuk hunting pameran foto jalanan. Ajakan tersebut langsung gw terima dengan senang hati lalu gw forward ke beberapa teman yang kebetulan sama-sama punya hobi blakrakan :p, tapi kenapa kadang kenyataan tidak selalu semanis harapan…ke-3 orang tersebut menolak dengan seksama dan dengan tempo yang sesingkat-singkatnya…*sigh*..parahnya lagi..malemnya gw dapet telp dari boss!you know lah what will happen next..yay!!besok gw harus datang di customer jam 10 pagi…lengkap sudah penderitaanmu anak muda. *alamat ga nongton MotoGiPi nih*.
Paginya gw putuskan langsung cabut ke Cikini, yes!!gw cuman ngerasa ga enak aja sama satliyo, tar kalo diculik orang gmn, minimal gw harus memastikan bahwa disono aman untuk seorang satliyo *waks…gw aja yang nulis ampir muntah, apalagi yg baca yak*. Ya sudah…singkatnya pameran foto jalanan ini digelar di trotoar Stasiun Cikini – Jakarta, bertajuk Perspektif Manusia dengan Lingkungan. Pameran yang merekam kehidupan budaya masyarakat Indonesia dan diikuti oleh 29 fotografer ini berlangsung hingga 27 April 2009. Tapi rupanya dari segi promosi dan pemilihan tempat masih kurang, sehingga kurangnya apresiasi masyarakat terhadap karya-karya para fotografer ini, dari foto-foto yang ditampilkan kalau boleh menilai gw pasti acungin 3 Thumbs Up, karya mereka begitu menyatu dengan momen kehidupan-kehidupan di sekitar mereka. Disana juga dijual beberapa pernak-pernik khas suku baduy dan penjualnya datang langsung dari Baduy jalan Kakiy sumpah Uasliy..:p. Sayang sekali gw ga bisa berlama-lama disitu karena gw harus ngejar kerjaan…*doohh* padahal gw pengen ikut workshop fotografi pin hole alias lubang kunci…hmm…jadi penasaran..
Canon Lens Code (L Series)
0
Many photographer dream gun is L series lens, like me 
. Short review, L-lenses have superior optical performance and are typically built with a solid construction to withstand constant use and harsh conditions. They can be recognized by a red ring around the front part of the lens. Most recent L lenses have sealing to help resist dust and water. L-lenses are typically used by professionals and serious amateurs due to their high price and large mass.
On the back of Canon lenses is a six-digit code, which indicates where the lens was manufactured and when.
Example of a code “UV1212”
The first letter ‘U’ represents the factory that made the lens. Three possible first letters are:
1. U = Utsunomiya
2. F = Fukushima
3. O = Oita
Ciwidey Escape
3It started when I’m was bored with dizzy life at Jakarta. Everyone knows that Jakarta famous as the city 0 km/h, each corner of a street crowded with vehicles and even weekend, each land span surely built-rise buildings and luxury housing, there is city park but local government didn’t maintenance it well.

Ujung Genteng
Ujung Genteng beach is a coastal area south of West Java which is located in the village of Stone Mountain, Ciracap District, Sukabumi Regency with a distance about 220 kilometers from the capital Jakarta, or 230 kilometers from Bandung.
