Hi from Singapore

[Kennie Pan]

Hi,

My name is Kennie Pan, aka knpan as user name,
i am from Singapore, just want to join here mainly to know more friends and crazy bird nuts too


I can only post Singapore birds here as i have never been to Outside singapore to take photos yet, as i am still "Studying",

Been taking wildlife photograhy since around February 2008, changing equipments (LENS only of course, 3 times ) bit by bit till i get to my maximum now.

I worked uncountable hours of events like Dinner and dance, all types of company funtions, parties, AD weddings etc etc , to achieve my dream lens i recently acquired Last October. Was So Happy to see it in front of my eyes!Whew !



Looks like ROmy Ocon created this website, have seen your images on the net, beautiful works !
I see Dolina name here to, from clubsnap forums

all the best !

Welcome to the forum Kennie is the ClubSnap website working? I haven't been able to get on it since a few days ago.

I am curious what three lenses you own.

Hi !

Hmm Clubsnap been down for close to a week already, heard its a major breakdown, so just be patient while the moderators do soemthing about it. I am unable to sell off my old body and lens now since the website is down Have to wait.

I started birding in Feb 2008, changed lens 3 times, Started with the Nikkor 80-400mm VR,
then 150-500mm DG OS Bigmos,
then 120 - 300mm DG Mini RPG (Light & good lens) but i think i got a bad copy lens, its soft wide open at 300mm 2.8, and even so much worst at 600mm with a DG TC., i even stopped birding for a while due to that that lens softness with/without TC, no point, right?

now the Sigmonster 300-800mm DG version. He ! Super sharp wide open, like what Romy said, need to Tame it to get sharp shots, as with all Long lens. Luckily, i mastered long lens technique with the 120-300mm lens and the Bigmos 150-500mm , i just took about 2 weeks to be tame the Sigmonster.

cheers
