Dear friends,It's always hard to start writing something about anything... hmm apa aku nak tulis ya. OK, Wikipedia to the rescue. It's mentioned in history that the first obscura camera (pinhole camera) was built by Abu Ali Al-Hasan Ibn al-Haitam, born in Basra (around 970 AD). He's know in the west as Alhacen or Alhazen, famous scientist in that time carrying experiment on optic and produce Book of Optics.
Why do i like photography? I think one of the reason is.... we can capture moments. Every moments in our life or our surrounding is unique, there are no two moments which is identical. There are no two or more raindrops, children smiling, flower blooming etc identical. They're all unique and as we know, any unique items will be consider as rare and special.
Perhaps because of this reason, I choose to use digital compact camera (beside the cost aspect, heheh), because it's so portable and can be use almost instantaneously. Well actually not, because compact digital camera will have some delay time, in between your press the snap button and the camera capture the image. But at least you can carry easily, anywhere you go.
I am more toward, less than amateur and practical kind of guy with photography... so I would like a camera that can take family Raya photo with no fuss, as well as night photo with low light. In addition, I want to snap macro and super macro photo of flowers and mushroom, at the same time I want to snap scenery view of mountain and beaches. And I want to take video image with sound...
Most of the compact camera in market today have that option plus others option which i don't understand.. and probably will not use....

Assalamualaikum,
Can you give tips or maybe the correct camera types that is necessary in taking good pictures.
Do we need a tripod? What is right setting to take scenery pictures during the night.
I did try to take a few, but all come out blurry.
Maybe there is certain things that is important that people needs to know when taking pictures and other things that are not that important but can refined the pictures quality.
I read a lot of things in the camera manual such as ISO, macro, exposure setting, digital focus but do not know clearly what these things really is about.
A few years back, I used analog camera. Just point, focus and shoot.
Waalaikumsalam Tuan...
Thanks for the comment, perhaps I should include the basic setting of the photo I took....
Yeah, Did you use a tripod?
I try taking pictures at night but got crap. Maybe it is the camera.
By the way, I watched the entertainment news. Angelina Jolie is angry with Brad Pitt because he keep on snapping pictures with his brand new camera. He cannot put it down. Seems to be too occupied with new hobby.
I try to pick up this hobby, only Brad Pitt camera perhaps is worth 70,000, mine 700.
Tripod is must Tuan Syed if you want to take low light picture. Unless you have hand as steady as Olympic Air Pistol shooter, you buy cheap tripod la. Aaron Eckhart (two faces) also like to taking photograph....but in black white, film camera.. that what I called a serious hobbyist
