Nikon Z7 field tested by Indian photographer Radhakrishnan Chakyat

Gambar
Radhakrishnan Chakyat , a professional photographer with experience of over 30 years (based in Mumbai, India), is the brainchild behind the Youtube channel Pixel Village . Pixel Village recently got the chance to review the new Nikon Z7 full frame mirrorless camera, and put it through its paces. They made a very thorough field test review that once again highlighted that the camera is really well rounded in every way, delivering great images. You may also check Chakyat's website with portfolio and his Bollywood celebrity shots . He's a great photographer knowing his craft well (unlike some spec sheet commentators ). Radhakrishnan Chakyat's review of the Nikon Z7 I believe the Nikon Z6 will be even better for me, because I don't need such high-resolution (and I think many people will feel the same), instead the Z6 will probably perform better in low light, especially for video, making it really a great choice for many modern hybrid shooters.

Fujifilm X100T camera longterm review

Gambar
The Fuji X100T was quite a revered and hyped up camera when I bought one in August 2016, but it was close to the end of life, as its successor the X100F was already rumored (it was launched in January 2017). I paid 29,000 NTD for it, which was at that time around 920 USD (the MSRP of a new X100T at launch was 1300 USD). The reason for that is that I got a grey market version. At that time I did not know that a new model is coming out, and I also did not care much - I wanted this camera after reading so many great online reviews, because I looked for a smaller compacter camera for travel, so that I did not need to lug around my heavier Nikon kit (D7100 and lenses). The initial excitement quickly faded away and I ended up selling the camera. Let me tell you why further below, but first let’s look at the key specs. Fujifilm X100T key specs - 16 Mpxl X-Trans CMOS II sensor (with on-sensor phase detection) - Max size of an image: 4896 x 3264 pxl - 23 mm equivalent f/2.0 lens, fixed - Mechan...

CASIO G-Shock MUDMASTER comparison: GWG-1000 vs. GG-1000

Gambar
The MUDMASTER is a sub-series of Casio G-Shock watches that falls under the umbrella of the Master of G Collection (other current sub-series in this collection are called Gulfmaster , and Gravitymaster , as well as the older Mudman, Frogman, Gulfman, Rangeman, and Riseman). Within MUDMASTER there are again two sub-series, the more expensive and premium GWG-1000 watches that come with a triple sensor, and the cheaper and less fancy GG-1000 watches that come with a dual sensor. Who is MUDMASTER for? MUDMASTER is a watch, that is meant for women and men, that are having jobs, or active lives out in the nature. If you're working in gutters, coal mines, or do extreme hiking, this will be the right watch for you. The good thing is, that Casio offers two MUDMASTERS for two different budgets. The nearly twice as expensive GWG-1000 series comes with sapphire glass, and additional features, but is it worth to pay double for that? Let's explore this further in the verdict at the end, ...

CASIO G-Shock G-5600E-1DR review

Gambar
The CASIO G-Shock G-5600E-1DR is my latest timepiece acquisition, and I'm pretty impressed with it. I was never into G-Shocks, but I've recently fell in love with the squares, and decided to get my first one. I was heavily researching G-Shock squares before making my buying decision, and I chose this one, because it's the only Tough Solar model without Multi Band 6, which I felt was nothing that I really need and pay more for it. However I wanted the solar charging, so this was the best choice for me. I bought it via PC Home , it cost me 3060 NTD (around 99 USD). It's not the cheapest square, but also not the most expensive (they can go up to 300 USD), for me it was a nice sweet spot. Check out my pictures and read about my impressions and experience below: A side image of the G-5600E-1DR. The back side is pretty solid. The side view. One downside: The readability is not good. The rubber strap is pretty sturdy. The buckle is very nice. The illumination is pretty nice. ...

Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter review

Gambar
So I bought the USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter from Apple together with the latest MacBook Pro "13-inch (no TouchBar), mainly because I needed an USB-C to HDMI adapter, which is required for my work. I'm doing a lot of presentations and need it to connect to projectors. Retailing at 1690 NTD (USD 49), this adapter certainly wasn't cheap. With that said, it did come with another USB-A and USB-C port, effectively giving me 3 different I/O ports, and thus adding additional value. There are other pure USB-C to HDMI adapters from third party brands, but I opted for Apple's own product, because I know their quality control is one of the best in the industry (I know that from friends in the Taiwanese supply chain). Since I bought an expensive laptop, I'm not going to save money on USB-C adapters. There were stories about bad quality USB-C cables causing issues with products, and that's definitely something I want to prevent. Features This adapter allows you to si...

New iPad Pro 9.7" had scratches, so I returned it

Gambar
I was so excited to finally get my new iPad Pro 9.7" yesterday. I arrived home late from work, and the package was waiting for me already. I ordered it online two days ago and it was here. Those who read this blog know, that it was a month long anticipation . But since it was late, I decided to unbox it the next day. So today in the morning was the time to do it. This is my third iPad, and arguably the best ever made, so I was pretty excited. I set everything up for a little unboxing video in my room, and started to unwrap the box. I've unboxed like 7 iOs devices in the past, and it was always a pleasure to see how they slowly slip out of the box, but this one just would not go out. It was odd. I had to really tug on it to get the top part of the box off. Something didn't feel right. When I finally unwrapped the iPad and checked the front and the back, I spotted scratches! In total it was 6 of them! I was very disappointed, especially because of the recent problems of alu...

iPhone 6s Plus Gold aluminium chipping

Gambar
I bought my iPhone 6s Plus (Gold) in December 2015 (photo above is from the day I unboxed it), that is 6 months ago. When I saw the phone in one of the Taiwan Mobile shops a few weeks before that, I was stunned. The Golden color looked gorgeous, and it's the first time I didn't buy a black (or space gray) iPhone. When I unboxed the new phone, I checked every detail, and the device was spotless (photo above was taken at that time). In order to keep it intact, I decided to buy a case. It was a plasticky/rubbery transparent case, that had a good grip, but made the phone a little bit bulkier. I used to have an iPhone 6 Plus (Space Gray) without a case before, and it was really easily to slip from my hands. I dropped it a few times, and learned my lesson, so I decided that my next iPhone will be put in a case, despite me hating the way iPhones in cases look. So I was really surprised to see that despite being in a case, my new iPhone 6s Plus had got some small scratches on the si...

Elago P2 Stand for iPad impressions

Gambar
Image source . Enlarge image . This iPad stand caught my eyes. It's called Elago P2 Stand , I spotted it at Syntrend, one of Taipei's latest and very exciting shopping malls. Since I'm in the process of buying a new iPad Pro 9.7" , I'm also eying a stand, and this one is very elegant and looks like it's of great quality. It turns the iPad into a mini iMac, and with the combo of the Magic Keyboard 2 , it seems like a match made in heaven. The only issue is the price: It costs 1620 NTD, which equals to 50 USD, however if you check Amazon , you can snag one for 25-30 USD. I guess I have to check some other places in Taipei, Syntrend is usually more expensive than the rest. Another good thing about this stand are the various colors that you can choose to match the color of your iPad. Since I'm opting for the silver iPad Pro, this image shows more or less how the combo will look like - pretty nice, if you ask me.

Review Dan Harga Sony Xperia M4 Aqua Android Lollipop Berprocessor Quadcore

Gambar
Review Dan Harga Sony Xperia M4 Aqua - Sony sangat bangga dengan fakta bahwa smartphone andalannya Xperia Z3 dan Xperia Z3 Compact sangat handal dalam menahan debu dan air. Kedua kemampuan tersebut telah menjadi salah satu hal yang membuat Sony tampil beda dalam kompetisi kemampuan handphone. Selain memiliki kemampuan yang jarang dimiliki oleh handphone laine, namun keduanya tentu saja tampil dengan desain dan rancangan yang indah. Sekarang Sony telah meluncurkan model smartphone mainstream dengan desain baik serta berkemampuan tahan terhadap air dan debu seperti halnya Xperia Z3. Sony Xperia M4 Aqua adalah handphone cantik yang kami maksud yang pada saat artikel ini ditulis masih dijual pada harga Rp 4.000.000. Tidak diragukan lagi karena styling yang praktis sangat identik dengan model Z3. Namun perbedaan yang jelas bisa kita temukan adalah bahwa seluruh bagian body dari ponsel ini terbuat dari plastik. Dalam hal ini tentu Sony Xperia Z3 masih memiliki sedikit kelebihan karena pen...
