Atlantis @ Dubai

Well, then yesterday i had a fine buffet dinner at this fine hotel, it was funny to find that this restaurant has so many malaysia cruisines, almost most of it. Well then it was sad that i did'nt take my medicine so my choice of food was limited :(
i did some shot, when i was free hope can show you how it looks like around Atlantis, Enjoy































I believe that noise control can be better if it was not set to ISO 1600.. too bad the situation does not allow me to set in low ISO maybe i should consider a flashgun.

Sharpness Found a Solution

Below is the message that decapix from LYN said to me.

the first one which i wouldn't call it crap
rather equipment limitation
at 144 mm, you should be using 1/250 shutter speed!
unless you have steady hands la
super zoom lens are not meant to have superior optics.
it's more of convenient usage during traveling.
under good light it should perform well
go outside during daylight and shoot.
want it to be sharper? try stopping down to f8

Thanks decapix, i owe you again,

Sharpness on lens?

Sharpness about lens, today we talk about graph to decide on lens maximum sharpness, i read through all of the review and was told that the lens that my dad has gave to me sharpness level is at f5.6, i still don't feel it is sharp enough, is it because i am picky? or is it the lens? or is it the body? or its just my hand that is shaking?
