Which one do I buy?

Well I was planning to buy a new camera and the obvious Question that popped in was... which one do you go for... CANON or NIKON...

So I went to many of the review sites... comparing the two entry level SLR camera... the Canon EOS1000D and a Nikon D 60...

The Standard Kit comes with an 18-55 mm lens... for Nikon it is a VR lens... and for Canon it is a ES lens...

The irony is that in most cases... you'd never be able to figure out which one... for both these brands are run very strongly by loyalists... if you used a Nikon before... you'd be stuck to one forever... and if you used a Canon... it's Canon for you

For me it was very important to be either Canon or Nikon, didn't matter any other manufacturer so I can't comment on the Sony or Olympus...

Now the only way out is to go into the shop and try them both...

So I went to couple a shops and tried both the 1000D and the D60... and I can say that the Nikon D60 felt the best in my hands and the built-in quality of the materials was higher than the others...

The only thing Canon is loaded is with the "Live View" feature whilst the Nikon offers you with the ability to store picture in multiple format and the "In Camera Image Editing with Retouch Menu"...

Anyways...

On the overall I preferred a Nikon D60...

The Unborn

I think Hollywood directors need to be re-trained on how horror movies are to be made... coz this one... is as bad as it can get... I was bored in the first 20 mins of the movie... and had to drag through the remaining...

To be honest, I was constantly telling myself... if ur not act at least act scared, that might help to add... but nah... the movie was as bad as it gets...

I'm still to find pace with the story... in fact I'm still searching for whatever the director wanted to show...

Such a waste of time...

Damn...

Terminator Salvation




Before I start to write...

This is probably the only Action movie... (the only Terminator movie to be rated PG-13)...

Now that sets the tone... Call me biased if you wan to... but I don't think any of the four in the series can match what was in T2...

To be very honest... it was like watching the lost world after having watched the jurassic park for the first time... yes it bored me...

To begin with... the characters weren't strong enough to hold the story.... let alone... the story doesn't hold too strong for me... the plot too simple to create any interest... of the action scenes... probably just one or two things that I liked in the two hours of pain (the cyborg being casted out as Arnold was one amongst them)...

In simple words... disappointing for me

Overall rating: 3.5/10

The Legend

I've been a fan of this man ever since and this post has been long overdue... and by long I mean really long... coupla years may be...


Andre Agassi is one of the greatest tennis players of all time. A
professional player since the age of 16, Agassi has won many
tournaments. He will go down in history for winning all four Grand Slams.


I really want to write everything I know of him, everything I learnt, everything he stands for... but I'd let this picture do the talking

His retirement Speech:
"The scoreboard said I lost today,” Agassi told the crowd. “But what the scoreboard doesn’t say is what it is I have found. Over the last 21 years, I have found loyalty. You have pulled for me on the court and also in life. I found inspiration. You have willed me to succeed, sometimes even in my lowest moments.

“And I’ve found generosity. You have given me your shoulders to stand on, to reach for my dreams, dreams I could never have reached without you. Over the last 21 years, I have found you, and I will take you and the memory of you with me for the rest of my life.”


AND THATS WHAT LEGENDS ARE MADE OFF...
What makes someone more special is, when you not only factor in for what you gain, but also of what you lose...

ROCK ON!!!!!!!!
