A Day in Tokyo 6@Danny
To get excellent color from your shots on the LX3 anywhere you go, I suggest you use a gray card, set your WB to custom and shoot away. Can be a bit tedious when you need to recalibrate your WB every time but I'm in a completely fluorescent l...
Japanese Love HotelsThere are motels here in the Philippines. There's even an entire street inside Metro Manila that has nothing but these motels along the road. They even offer unique rooms themed after tourist spots (Hanging Gardens room) or movies (Matrix Room). xd
Google Chrome JapanThe event looked awesome.

I wish they'd hold a Google event here in the Philippines too. Anybody have Wave already? I'd like to pool some fellow otaku contacts.
Oktoberfest in TokyoBeen to the Oktoberfest in Munich back in 2007. And yes, I did notice how our colleagues there insisted that it is a Bavarian celebration.
Loved the beer. Loved the atmosphere in the tents. Most Bavarians are probably too used to it now. We had quit...
Lumix GF1Awesome build but too expensive IMO. Also, the fact that there aren't much choice between lenses means there are still limitations to its photo shooting capacity.
But heck, if this rolls out awesome pictures, I might get the f1.7 kit when it comes o...
Suenaga T-shirtsThat was what I also had in mind. I'll try to make several mockups and email it to Danny or post it here. Hopefully by the end of the week.
SLR RecommendationsI've been a Canon user ever since I bought my first DSLR which was a 400D. At some point, I was keen towards moving to Nikon because the somehow I prefer the saturation of the images from Nikon. But then Canon is better in low light conditions and sh...
British Ambassador to JapanThat chap is one lucky bloke to get a Wonfes Exclusive Miku from Danny-sama. It would take more than selling kidneys to get one in this part of the globe.
New MacbookApple tends to release stuff around September to November range of the year so I make sure never to buy Apple products around that time because the news are bound to roll out soon.
New MacbookWhat I found interesting was that in Europe, they sell Apple Products at the exact same numerical value but with different currencies. Like when they sell the iPods, they sell it at 149 Euro while they sell for 149 USD in the US. I wonder why it cost...
Figure Pre OrdersRingo's outfit is from a scene in Air Gear where she was supposed to go an help Ikki's team in a battle and had to change into her costume which was actually just a school swimsuit, top hat and mask similar to that guy in Sailor Moon but Simca switch...
DS TV TunerNope. TV is generally free in the Philippines but they do have crap shows like Zaido which is a crap spinoff of the Metal Hero series Shaider so if I was required to pay for the shows on that channel, I'd rather gouge my eyes out.
Japanese DolphinsI think it's more because dolphins aren't domestically grown animals like cows and swine which are "farmed" for the very purpose of food. I know exotic dishes aren't "farmed" but consuming them at a large scale without doing much to replenish what wa...
