I got my new lens today Canon 8-15mm F4 L USM Fisheye recently.
First impression when I get the lens is it has a solid built. Upon testing a few shots, I quickly notice the USM feature on the lens which has a fast and quite focusing as compared to my Tokina Fisheye.

Was very happy to be selected as one of Canon EOS Buddy Club member. The top 20 selected members were given a booth at the DCIM Show 2010 held at Midvalley Convention Hall to display their work. Was very busy preparing all the prints to be displayed and also slides for my talk.
Anyway, today wake up at 9am, get ready and quickly go to Midvalley. Arrived sharp-sharp at 10am with abit jam. Only manage to get into the Hall at 10.30am because the security deny our access without passes. Then start 'decorating' my kiosk until 12pm. Here's a photo of my kiosk
Thanks Qian Wei for taking the below photo for me.
Saw quite a number of people and some old friends too, Johnny, zzloo, jerleon, pengster, Edward, Ruey, Wals, Sum Zi Tian, Ianho, Jeff Woo, Raynor, Wilfred and alot more, sorry if i miss you out.
So if you happen to drop by Midvalley, do come to my booth. Below is the location of my booth.

Went to Bentong a few weeks back with Kevin Woon to shoot Danny & Vivian Wedding. Luckily the couple are just staying streets away. But I woke up 3.30am and started my journey by picking up Kevin first. We picked up McD along the way and reached R&R at Genting Sempah around 4.45am to have breakfast. The bride house was a bit hard to find as there is no road signboard. We finally arrived at 5.30am and below are some of the photos for the day.
