Drones with camera

Two days ago,I decided to go for a photowalk around Taman Tasik Cempaka,located about 2km from my house in Bangi.The weather was overcast and I could not locate where the sun was over the horizon.I Just hope for the best.Since,I am using my Fujifilm XT1 55-200mm,quietly I hoped and prayed for a miracle to snap a flying bird.

Along my walking trail,I also snapped whatever objects that I felt interesting.At the same time,I was using different camera settings so that I could learn how the images got affected by a few variations of camera settings.Suddenly,I saw a bird just took off from the ankle deep water and flew away from me.It was too fast for me ,it got away..but I caught a bit of it..



Continuing my walk with my Fujifilm XT1 in my palm,I heard a whizzing sounds above me.It was a drone! I walked further,and I saw a young man was controlling the flight of his Phamton 3.I walked towards him and asked a few stupid questions about his drone.Please excuse my ignorance of this UFO!


Personally,I love gadget like this.It is a great enabler for me to take photo where I can't get access due to physical or legal barriers.What immediately came to my mind was how I could use it in engineering construction supervision and during emergencies like flood,fires etc.It is a also good for facilities management and security.And it also can be used to monitor illegal logging,mining and any other thefts on going in remote areas.Its usage is limited only by our imagination.


As an avid cyclist,I can use it to monitor and control my tribe during our ride.And many more applications,depending on who you are.As any other good tool,it can be  used for good as well for bad and evil.Technolgy is neutral.Only we humans can make the difference.

KB WALK

I planned to have four days of Photowalking around Kota Bharu #KBWalk ,but due to unplanned family errands which I love doing for my  mother and son,I only managed to have two days with only less than 4 hours.Herewith I shared two photos taken behind Pejabat PAS. To do justice to the town,I need at least 7 full days and nights to capture the history  and culture of the place.My first attempt had revealed a lot more for me to explore,discover and capture.Another missing dimension I need to have with me before I embark on KBWalk is the history of Kota Bharu. It has to be another time..May be after Eidil Fitri.

COMPARISON BETWEEN MY IPHONE 14 ProMax VS FUJIFILM XT20

No camera is suitable for every occasion. Here is a simple comparison. Both have their own strengths and weaknesses, and I love both. When I go photowalking with friends, I use more smartphones than the Fujifilm XT20. FUJIFILM XT20 iPhone 14 Pro Max (Smartphone) vs Fujifilm X-T20 (Mirrorless) – Image Quality Breakdown IPHONE 14 PRO MAX 1.

DXOMARK cites strengths like vivid color, wide dynamic range, sharp detail, and low noise; potential drawbacks include clipping highlights and noise indoors  . Fujifilm X-T20 Features a...
