on the 11th day of the year 2012, i am down with a cold. the weather at my place is weird. 1 minute it could be hot as hell and the second it would be raining cats and dogs.

so what is new. nothing actually. a few interesting news.

nikon has launch the new flagship full frame camera. the D4. these are the specs of the new dslr.

16.2 effective megapixel, full-frame sensor (16.6MP total)

10fps shooting with AF and AE, 11fps with focus and exposure locked, 24fps 2.5MP grabs

91,000 pixel sensor for metering, white balance, flash exposure, face detection and active d-lighting

ISO Range 100-12,800 (extendable from 50 – 204,800)

MultiCAM 3500FX Autofocus sensor works in lower light and with smaller apertures

Two sub-selector joystick/buttons for shooting orientation

1080p30 HD video at up to 24Mbps with uncompressed video output

New EN-EL18 battery (21.6Wh capacity, CIPA-rated at 2600 shots)

Twin card slots - one Compact Flash and one XQD

the specs are good enough for an upgrade from the D3 and D3s.

on the judical side, anwar ibrahim has been acquitted from the charges of sodomy. not a hot news for me since i cant be bothered to give much attention to politics in malaysia.
