  The BlackBerry Bold 9700 caught my eye and DiGi's BlackBerry plans is amongst the most competitive pricing that is provided in the market today. What caught my attention was the DG Smart Plan for BlackBerry. Let's take a look shall we?

  For those of you who have been waiting for this package, you can purchase it at Mid Valley Megamall from 3 - 7 March 2010.

  Do keep in mind though, if you do not plan to buy the BlackBerry with DG's Smart Plan, than you will most likely have to look for alternatives as BlackBerry requires their users to have plans for their BIS that enables things such as (BB Messenger where you can PM BlackBerry users all over the world for free). You can ask the promoters as DiGi's booth.

 My views on the Smart Plan?

Pros:
- Cheap plan for any adult that rarely uses calls and SMS as the only commitment that they have for the DG Smart Plan 50 is the RM58/month for unlimited internet usage
- Fast connection at 1Mbps

Cons:
- No tethering allowed. There's a Pay-As-You-Use rate of 10sen per 10 Kb
- Max capped at 3GB data usage in a billing cycle. Exceeding the amount and your connection will be throttled down


  Let's hope that they will have a plan for their prepaid customers like Xpax so those of us who wants to continue using our prepaid plan can still use this awesome phone.

  With such a good plan, it will definitely make us wonder how DiGi will market their iPhone to compete with Maxis that have been dominating the iPhone market for years.

Take a look and judge for yourself if this is commendable

The oil at the bottom of the bottle. No surprise there perhaps they spilled some oil when cooking. Doesn't really matter but what I saw next was.. -_-"

Notice how oil is smudged on the whole bottle. When I opened the cap, it shocked me even more. Look at the line which is used to hold the cap tight. There's oil in it.

Next what I saw was oil WAS inside the bottle. How could this be..


So much for being the 'Signature' branch of Old Town White Coffee.

The shot above was actually taken with my Nokia N95 8GB. I took 7/8 photos and stitched them together creating a panorama shot or what most will understand more as the wide angle shot.

Just trying to prove that having a DSLR doesn't mean you can produce great photos. You can do so as well using compact.

P.S. Pixel peeping is not allowed. It's just a 5MP Phone.
]]> How To Check Your Shutter Count tag:www.kelvinling.net,2009://5.4 2009-11-16T16:12:16Z 2009-11-16T16:54:51Z A lot of people take photos and wants to know what are their shutter counts.

Kelvin Ling http://www.kelvinling.net A lot of people take photos and wants to know what are their shutter counts. Reason?
  1. Gives them the info of how many photos have been taken on the camera
  2. Let's them know how often has the camera been used from the date it was purchased until the day you've checked it
  3. Gives them info on roughly when they'll need to change the shutter (this is probably amongst the reason why most DSLR users will want to check their shutter count.

  So what are the things you need?
  • Computer
  • Opanda IExif (It can be downloaded from here)
  • Camera (to take photos and upload them to your computer to check the shutter count)

  The first thing you need to do (obviously) is to install the Opanda IExif software. After installing, all you need to do is just open the software and open the image that you've taken to check the shutter count. Opanda IExif also allows people to know what setting have they used such as the Aperture, Shutter Speed & ISO settings. Apart from that it also lets people know whether they've been editted or not and what have been done. Even the type of camera used is shown.


  The shutter count can be found under the MakerNote (in my case it's MakerNote(Nikon)) as seen in the image below:

shuttercount.jpg

This means that for that particular image, it's position for being taken by the camera is placed at number 486. Please do take note that if you want to know the actual shutter count of the camera, you will need to use the latest photo. Otherwise, you will not get the accurate info.

This software works well with Nikon & Canon's DSLR and PnS(Point n Shoot) cameras. However only a certain range of Sony cameras will be able to check their shutter count using this method. Do try it out.
