To me, result matters a lot more than the technical specification and I’m glad it performed! Oh, I was talking about the Canon EOS 450D I bought today.

It’s an obvious upgrade, obviously. The speedy-procedure alone could make me high for years - I used to spend a full minute or two trying to get the focus right and what not with S2IS, now it’s just literally a few flicks and I get to hit 3 good shots in a second.

Here’s another example what S2IS can’t do.

An actual photo of a basketball game going on, after 7pm! Amazing! I mean, S2IS can never get this kind of sport shot when it’s dark even with flash, especially after 6.30pm. I never went for any night games to take photos because I can’t take photos with S2IS at night. Now I can. Hehe.

So now, my S2IS is officially partially-retired. I’ll still use it when I need some serious zooming power. Only have kit lens for 450D now. More photos from 450D (mostly candid):

Very hazy today, as you can see from the last photo, so nothing great produced today. Still I’m happy what this puppy can do. Can’t wait to find a superb subject!

Dilemma. Why can’t they both perform the same to save me trouble deciding which to get?

Terible cliche for a post title. I know, I know.

note: photo unrelated to post title.

Echo is another colleague of mine in AMM. We were having lunch in office’s pantry. I took this candid portrait when she was teased, something about having chili on her hair. I had to bump up the ISO to get a less blurry shot, so the noise is kind of high.
