Canon Ixus 120IS

Since Canon loan me a set of canon Ixus 120IS recently, I will give a self review on it. The Ixus 120IS is very elegantly slim and have been dubbed as the slimmest ever wide angle digital ixus by Canon themselves. I have always been a fan of canon and especially the Ixus range, since years back.(I myself have a canon ixus 80IS and a canon powershot A570IS for around 2 to 3 years and it still working well)

Ixus range are always known for it’s metallic competitive small frame, pocket size and an easy no fuss point&shoot camera. Last but not least, great at producing good quality images.The ixus 120is in 4 different colours!

I’m particularly impressed by the Canon Ixus 120IS, after using it to snap some pictures. I have to say from my personal opinion, the flash cycle is very fast(no time wasting for the next shot) and they execute and control the flash accordingly matching the power to the estimated distance. You won’t get very bright flash blast onto your face, when you took pictures at a close distance. Let the Pictures speak for itself. I will compare two pictures taken in an almost totally dark room with night mode and flash on , one taken by my 80IS and 120IS.

Taken with Ixus 80IS, unedited(notice how bright the flash is. Flash is not very well controlled from the distance)ixus80

Taken with Ixus 120IS,unedited (notice how well the flash is controlled and diffused onto my Domo Kun)ixus120

 I also had some pictures taken after one of my event job the other day with the canon Ixus 120IS. This one was taken indoor at Changi Airport with the camera’s indoor mode and flash. I really like how well controlled the Flash is. PS:Totally unedited picture. IMG_0610xxx

 That’s sum up my review and what I really liked about the Canon Ixus’s 120IS, no more ghostly sheen from flash blasting onto my already fair face when I take pictures at night or in clubs! Most likely this is the next camera I will upgrade to in the very near future.  :)

Monday’s blues..

October 19th, 2009 by Khym Ong
Hello people, today’s a Monday and I bet most of us are going through the worst day of the week. The very first day of the week back to the office for work or school for studies.. That explain monday’s blues. Same plight, school as usual for me *whining
 
Looking on the bright side, let us all find some joy at work/school. Be it joking to your collegues, classmates or looking forward to meeting your friends/love ones for dinner etc later.

 
Lastly hope all of you have had a pleasant last weekend. Got to be optimistic, for people whose looking ahead for another weekend. Friday will come by sooner then we expected (:

Well, here’s my very first blog entry here.

 Sooo, a hello *shoutout to everyone! A very pleasant morning/afternoon/night to all of you J

First of all, I’m thankful to Female magazine for giving me this opportunity and selecting me to be part of this. Sweet! I find it pretty cool to actually have a space to share my thoughts and happening. Speaking of which, why does my avatar picture on my voting page look kind of queer to me… HAr HAh this is ‘TOTALLY’ my very first time ever to try on a center parting hair styling for a shoot, encouraged by the stylist to go with the outfit. Hmmm really hope that the photos turn up well in the magazine.*Prays hard J Grab the November issue to see more.

 

Took some random pictures of the outfit on that day’s photoshoot for ‘Female’. Here’s the pics

Stay tuned for my next update shortly. I will write more about myself and other random/interesting stuff.

Lastly, a quote to share – “I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.” – Bill Cosby
