Posted by vivien | Non-Food Related | Sunday 8 November 2009 5:57 pm

Was testing out the preset scenery options of Olympus, below are some of the description of the options, also pics of camera pouch in macro position… testing out the clarity of macro and its background.

- Landscape: vivid reproductions of blues and greens

- Night: shooting illuminated scenes in evening or night, Uses lower shutter speed, stable the camera for best result

- Night portrait: shooting both subjust and illuminated background in evening, shutter speed is slowed

- Sport: capture fast moving without blurring

- Indoor: shoot both main subject and indoors

- Candle: shooting under candlelight, warm colors are reproduced

- Sunset: vivid reproduction of reds and yellows

- Fireworks: slower shutter speed

- Cuisine: for still life photography, vividly reproducte colors of fruits, flowers etc

- Document: increase contrast between letter and background

- Beach & snows: for shooting white sand sea scape and other whitish background.

I find “Cuisine” and “Document” take macro really well, although i find taking food pic with cuisine allows for better contrast and colors.

Whereas “Sunset” & “Landscape” will show background clearly. “Night scene” and “fireworks” works as well.

Massage Slim Pants from Shins

dilemma of a person who eats more than her body needs, for pure enjoyment of eating or maybe munching, moving your mouth continuously is something comforting and relaxing? haha, got the above massage slim pants from Shins, a hair and beauty shop in Mid Valley Megamall. It reputedly to lose 355kcal/1hr… losing 355kcal per hour, not day… If i am correct, 355kcal should be the calories for one roti canai(indian pan fried bread), so if i wear it continuously for 8 hours per day, i can eat 8 piece of roti canai without feeling guilty… too good to be true right? Anyway, there is so many japanese characters which i do not understands, maybe that is where the fine prints lies… cute packaging, even have a cute pig on it… nice :D

back of the small package

Resize of IMGP0901

the pants next to the package, it almost look ridiculous for me to fit in, it looks like pants for a small kid, anyway, it is quite comfortable wearing it, worn it only twice, i find this thing works in a way… anyway, i don’t wear it enough to prove its efficacy.

Bought it for RM69 in Shins, they have all sort of slimming wear, you can refer to Shin website for all types of slimming wear. However, i saw the exact same package in Taman Megah’s night market for only RM29, the stall owner say the got them from the same source, just that hers’ is end stock…
