Sharing Photography Tips

Second Lens.

Hey Y'll...

Happy friday guys!!:)How is it going ?

Well today one of my friends sent me an email asking me what lens is good to upgrade from the kit lens he has for his DSLR...Told him from my opinion and he gave me an idea to give y'lls tips on what to get for a second lens(or maybe a third) for your dslr.Note that this tips i'm sharing is based from my own experience as a Photographer and from my dad who was a Journalist Photographer for The Sun Newspaper here in Malaysia.

Getting A second Lens?
I'm guessing that you have your dslr for about one year...And your have the basics of photography...and u r thinking of getting new lenses...i'm guessing ur thinking of buying an all-in-one lens..(sebab nk save duit) maybe an 18-200mm?or 55-200mm?the one that has a variable aperture with a minimum of 'f/3 .5'?...for me..i wont buy those lens...Why?Lenses with a bigger aperture give you the advantage when shooting in low light conditions and in using a faster shutter speed that wont make u increase the ISO value that can produced image Noises.And yes,they may cost hold lot of money but then you wont be upgrading to a new lens in a short period of time unless if a new vision of the lens is made...

For me,buy a lens that fits the style of photography u shoot...u'll get a quality lens that u will use for a long time...In this case,my friend has an EOS 1100D and he like to take portraits and videos and want to upgrade from the kit lens he has...

So, knowing that...btw he was on a budget of RM1200#....

Knowing that,first lens in my mind was the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 priced at only RM320...this lens is great for portraits and the BOKEH in this is so silky smooth...He also mentioned that he want to do some short filming...I was kinda scratching my head of what lens is good for doing videos..and then i remembered these two lenses that has a reasonable price tag and great for video coz they have quite a close focusing distance to give that dramatic feel...the lenses are the Canon EF 28 f/2.8 and the Canon EF 35 f/2. Focusing in these lens is very fast..the best thing is the Price for each of the lens is just under RM900...

I need to go on a little rant here really quick:

First of all, I want start off by giving a little back story. 6 years ago was the first time I ever heard about Invisible Children. I was at a church youth group and they were explaining to us, a bunch of middle schoolers at the time, what this organization was and the awful, terrible horrors that were going on in Uganda. And to be honest, I didn’t pay much attention. I was 13, bored, and just wanted to go play games. But, this was the first time I ever heard about this amazing movement.

So, like most people, I got wrapped up in my own little life. I moved onto high school, stopped going to that church and youth group, went to college, grew up, and I totally forgot about Invisible Children. That doesn’t mean it went away though. And I haven’t thought about Invisible Children or the people of Uganda for about 4 or 5 years now, not again until tonight.

Tonight, as I was trolling along on Tumblr, I noticed a video with a name and a tag on it that I recognized: Invisible Children: Kony 2012. Curious, as I hadn’t seen the name in a while, I clicked on the video, and spent the last half hour of my life truly listening to what I should have 6 years ago.

For those of you who, like myself, hadn’t heard much or anything at all about Invisible Children or Joseph Kony until tonight or a couple days or a couple months ago or whatever, I’m going to give you the quick run down:

Joseph Kony is a man who claims to be a good, Christian man, working for God Almighty. Joseph Kony has been stealing young girls and boys out of their beds at night and forcing them to do unthinkable horrors. The girls are being forced into prostitution as sex slaves, the boys are forced to carry guns and trained to shoot, trained to be in an army. Joseph Kony is creating this “rebel army”, called the Lord’s Resistance Army(LRA), made up of children, some who are no older than 6 years old, and making them do things like kill their parents, their families, their own people. And he is claiming to do this all in the name of God.

Now, as a Christian myself, I find this EXTREMELY offensive. But that’s beside the point. The point is that we can do something to fix this. Joseph Kony has been at this for 26 years, and nobody has been able to stop him. Why you may ask? Because he himself is invisible. He is unknown to 98% of the world. But we can change that. This is the time to make a difference. All you have to do is spread the word. If you really want to get involved, contact me. I’ll give you some websites you can donate to, a package you can buy, or better yet, here’s the video that will really help you out:

For all of you people who are angry because “people are just finding out about Kony now”, who the hell do you think you are? If that’s what you’re angry about, you have lost all of the meaning that this cause is for. This is a cause to make people listen, to spread the word, and you’re angry because people are finally starting to listen?!? I honestly think this is the most ridiculous thing in the world, but that is beside the point.

The point is we can make a difference, right here, right now. All you have to do is spread the word about Joseph Kony, make him famous, if you really want to, donate money, pledge to the cause, help out however you can, but this is something that can change our world forever, create a better future not only for ourselves, but for so many others. Don’t you want a better world to live in?
