Flashing at Murni SS2
Posted on February 28, 2008 - Filed Under camera, food
Side Note: I was watching the Oscars last night and found out that the Best Music (Song) went to Falling SlowlyI wrote an entry about this song and the movie not too long back but i was expecting one of the songs from Enchanted to win since that movie had 3 songs nominated. Out of those 3 songs from Enchanted, i liked So Close by Jon McLaughlin
It has been many moons since i have sat at Murni of SS2. So when i heard there’s a meet up, i just couldn’t ignore it Thanks to Crapster and Marcus for giving a lift, hehehe. If you have no idea about Murni, it’s sort of a mamak place where you can get good food with unique combinations. Though the price is face-scratchingly expensive but it’s totally worth it, especially if you are there on an empty stomach as the portions are big. That night i ordered Nasi Goreng Special which has fried rice, keropok, wedges, egg and maryland chicken. Mmmmmm i already hungry just by describing it. Usually i will go for Loh Shi Fun but i really needed something heavy that night
David of tomagogame.com ordered Mee Raja, Aaron ordered Mee Bandung i think or was it Mee Tom Yam ? -_-” and Marcus ordered Carbonara with black pepper chicken.
Eugene and Eri joined us later on and Eugene’s DSLR is sick ! Hahaha. I only have the basic kit and he has like the whole set @_@ First he showed the lense that is attached to his 400D, then the battery grip. Later on he brought out this external flash (580Ex II) and then the diffuser for the external flash -_-” Super ganas. Once he had everything mounted, he looked like he had antlers of a deer and it was heavy, i mean really heavy @_@
Then i had the chance to attach his external flash on my camera and the pictures turned out soooo much better. Though it was suppose to be a ‘makan-session’, Eugene was kind enough to shout across the table a few pointers which were essential for a beginner like me. In that 2 hours, i learned more than whatever i have learned by myself for the past 2 months
I did a small test with the help of Angeline aka Dolphin to see the difference with and without the external flash. I mean if i am gonna fork out a lump sum of money again, i have to make sure it’s worth every cent. So David and i became test subjects and you can clearly see how the external flash soften the light compared to the internal flash
Aaron was fiddling with his Alpha 200 dual with Eugene, Eri and Angeline looking at me playing around with the external flash Crapster and Marcus were rather quiet, hahaha. While i was in the car, both of them just kept on talking and talking but when they reached Murni, they completely shut off. Apa lar Lastly, it’s Angeline on the phone with Eugene ermmmm sucking on the straw Had i noticed earlier, i would have added his picture in my previous entry of people with straws 
Firewire came towards the end and i had no picture of him -_-”
After the outing, i rushed back to get a good rest as the following day i was participating in a paintball competition where me and the Glorious Assassins made one blunder that wouldn’t be forgotten anytime soon Tobby don’t worry, it was only a game

And yeah, the effects of an external flash is so great and so much better if you compare it to the built-in ones. So when are you getting one? lol~
