During my taking the photos in the aquariums, I noticed a no. of people carrying some very expensive DSLR cameras such as Canon 5D, 1D or Nikon D300 or D3...etc. with a very refined lens. The most interesting part is that they use the built-in flash to take objects behind the glass. Even at the Panda house, they still did so, disregarding the entrance rules that flashes would scare our most precious animals. In situation like that, suggest to use a higher ISO (especially those professional DSLRs have very good ISO control to 1,600 with very minimal noise) to 800 to 1,600 and a larger aperture over F.2, or ISO400 for some prosumers cameras.
These last 2 photos show the Ocean Train connecting the main entrance area and the hillside attractions in just 1 minute ride instead of the 10 minute cable car ride. Good for those who have high altitude phobia.

so no need scary cable car ride :)
btw, those who carried expensive DSLR to snap with flash? they must be from the Mainland ..
Interesting that those carrying expensive DSLR don't have the mainland accent. They are locals.... I think those Broadway and Fortress chain electronic shops do have some influence on selling those expensive DSLR. There were quite many times when I asked for the price of 500D, they told me 7D. The other times I asked about 7D, they told me to get 5D. When I tested them what's good between those models, their simple answer "heavier".
Even on a TV special Choy Lan went to a Sony show room and asked what the difference of DSLR and compact cameras, that Sony salesman even replied not much difference! Then Choy Lan told "so from now on, no need to carry a big camera.
Don't they know a larger CMOS sensor take the best advantages in capturing more light in and the mechanism and chips are far more different. :)
Wow the photos are so pro like those from the magazines. I like the jellyfish one. Those salemen just know the differences between the commission. By the way, thanks for the M&M chocolate from Michael's sister. Jason loves it very much.
Thanks Daphne. It's all on more and more practices and the most important part is to hold the camera still even after pressing the shutter button.
Yes, the chocolate are very nice and the kids love them so much. Thanks Stella for your caring thought and also to Pixmation (Edmond) for his personal carrying it a long way over 7,200 miles. Warmest regars!
