...nikon d3100 in the house...
When I say in the house, it really is in the house, sitting in my dry box. I bought this cam for RM 1,900 a few months back and it was hardly used after 1 month or so. 3 reasons to this...
1) Bulky and heavy
2) Lens easily condensed in tropical climate causing blurness to the camera for an extended period of time
3) Difficult to use by a third party
Whenever I ask a bystander to take a picture for us, most often then not the person may not be able to comprehend the point-and-shoot system of this camera.
This is because the point-n-shoot isnt really point-n-shoot coz you will have to point-press lightly and hold (until the lens autofocuses)-press completely. Now this sounds really complicated doesnt it?
Tropical climate is humid in nature, hence, if the camera is cold (i.e. you may be traveling in an air-cond car) and is exposed to the hot and humid atmosphere, you will see drops of water condensing on the lens and you will not be able to take any picture for a day at least.
I reckon I'll be saving up and will shop for a good compact camera in no time...

...big ass telephoto lens...the biggest I have seen thus far...
Captured this picture during an investment conference held recently at Kuala Lumpur...he was at least 50 metres away from the Prime Minister.. and I saw it was like a close-up portrait framed on his liveview playback... enjoy!
