A sample pix from Nokia 6300’s 2-megapix cam

I think the quality is on par (to put it politely ;-p) with similar cameras found on other phones. If you are looking for picture quality, you are better off getting a proper digicam. However, if you really must get a phone with a camera, try checking out the the SE K800i, it comes with a 3-megapix camera. The cute pelican is a gift from a colleague who visited Greece last year.

 

Nokia 6300… Nice!

Let’s be honest, SE phones have been aesthetically more attractive in the past 2-3 years, Nokia designers I thought pushed their creativity a little too far! I believe the sleek-looking 6300 is set to change all that, I laid my hands on one recently and it brought back fond memories of my old metal-cased 8850. The 6300 comes in a stainless steel casing and boasts a 16.7m color screen plus a 2 mega-pix cam, however it is not a 3G phone. The Nokia-O2 crossover theme shown can be downloaded from the web.

Timehouse Riders… Great Packaging Design!

I really love this box design, it’s good looking and functional, it can be easily opened and closed without damaging those flimsy flaps found on most other boxes.

I know I’m not young anymore but that doesn’t mean red packets can’t be forthcoming… LOL ;-p

Drool… latest Rider Helmets Set 3, got these for a friend recently (from a scalper-toyshop in Mongkok). The red boxes are set 2, they can still be found but cost a bomb!

Improved Lighting, Better Pictures!

The picture above speaks for itself, don’t you agree!

Poor man’s DIY studio & lighting

What I am using - a digicam that allows manual white balance, a sturdy tripod, fluorescent room lighting plus a pair of cheap Ikea lights attached to broomsticks… the background is actually a piece of white mahjong paper!

Medicom SAS

Replaced the crappy Cro-Magnon body with that of a Bluebox Toys, that’s why he can pose so well in the pix above.

My favourite counter-terrorist group, Britain’s Special Air Services. Pix shows a Medicom in front and Dragon Models behind. GO GO GO!!! The highly secretive SAS was first revealed to the world on 5 May 1980, when they were called upon to end the Iranian Embassy siege in London.
