Friday, June 20, 2014 :: My Samsung NX Mini


Like many of my friends, you could have seen me (and a different side of me) in Singapore YouTube sensation Tan JianHao’s video on “17 Types of Selfies”. 

Here are some of the behind-the-scenes taken on the day of filming! There’s the talented Sylvia who has some great acting chops!

Don’t get me started and ask why am I standing like this..

With selfies and wefies leading the trend, people take selfies in every possible way we could ever think of; in front of landmarks, in front of other people, other ridiculous occurrences, well you get the idea. Coming from a self-professed camwhore like myself, the camera DOES make a difference in taking a good selfie ;) 
Which is why I have to lay my hands on the new Samsung NX mini.

It didn’t get me long to decide on getting the pretty Mint Green colour amongst the other colours such as Pink, White and Brown. And I have to say..I got hooked onto this camera when I finally gotten it 2 weeks back thanks to Samsung Asia Pte Ltd for gifting this pretty cam to me! This camera has now earned a precious place in my bag because this is the best camera to take a selfie yet. Another reason why it earned a place in my space-constrained weekend handbags is because it is ultra slim and light. It is a matter of which camera CAN fit into my small bag haha. Well, being pastel mint in colour is a bonus because it looks good when I whip up the camera from my bag….. No one ever complimented my White Samsung EX2F before, yah. Just so you know
To begin, here are some selfies taken by the NX mini beauty face mode.

I like that the beauty face mode does not overdo the smart blurring effect to achieve the smooth skin look. The effect is pretty subtle as you can see. I do not fancy using the beauty face mode on my other cameras as the effect is pretty overdone but I am starting to get hooked on using it on my NX mini!

The NX mini fares pretty well on food photos as well ;)

Brought out the camera during a triple date for Korean fare night teehee

Decided to test out the camera during YSL makeup launch event and the colours are so vivid!

Off to another event for Hic Juice’s opening at Boon Tat Street ;)

During low-light environments, the camera fared not-too-bad as well. Here’s one night at Jamie Oliver’s restaurant with John!

Here’s the mint beauty in its full glory.

The intuitive touch screen display which is also able to…..

FLIP UP

to take a good angled selfie shot ;) I also like how the quick flip of the display turns on the camera automatically. No more searching and fidgeting for the on and off button everytime I need to snap a shot!

IMG_3536

Other than Samsung’s well known and easy transferring of photos into your phone via Wi-Fi®, NX mini has an added function also known as Tag & Go. If you have watched the video above, you would understand more clearly about this function! It is able to transfer photos from NX mini to any NFC-compatible smartphone seamlessly – just like what I did to transfer photos from my NX mini to my smartphone! ;)
IMG_3529


Last but not least, the 9-27mm lens zoom lens, which plays a pivotal role in taking a good selfie or rather, a wefie shot, from wide-angle to telephto shots.

IMG_3522

Find out more about the NX mini here if you like to know more before heading down to the nearest gadget store! ;) Otherwise, try to win one by entering a lucky draw in my quaint little boutique at 42 Haji Lane by end July! 
Psst, you would probably love to know that the purchase of NX mini comes bundled with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 and not forgetting an external flash! 
Good luck with your new NX mini!

Sunday, June 15, 2014 :: Cure Your Hover Finger

 
Perhaps it was this really unglamorous photo of myself that got my friends talking about how relatable my previous post on Hover Finger were. 
Then we started comparing who had the worst ever yet moment of regret due to to Hover Finger. It was an irony how we tried to outdo each other and at that point of time, I wished I had the best regretful moment to tell. Say hi to my ego. 
clip_image001
  
So we came to this conclusion, 
clip_image002 
In this era where shopping online is prevalent and fraudulent websites and sellers alike await to strike at any opportunity, we must be alert and protect ourselves through education and knowledge. By educating ourselves to identify what causes fear in online shopping and to eliminate that fear by knowing what protects our interests best so that fear will be ultimately eradicated. 
By using a reliable credit card which protects us, the consumer’s interests will be well protected, well at least, you know there is an authority you can rely on. The crux of it is, you are able to pay for your online purchases with confidence. 
That’s why the only cure for Hover Finger is Visa! 
Here is why you should own a Visa card, if you have not – sharing with y’all the 4 things I love about Visa. 
- Visa’s secure network (Visanet)
- 3-Digit security code
- Verified by Visa
- Dispute a transaction 
Allow me to further elaborate on the highlighted point because I find it really good knowledge to share. In situations where you as the consumer receive defective, damaged or counterfeit merchandise, or even receiving merchandise or service which does not match what was described, you can contact the card issuer to dispute the transaction IF you are unable to resolve the issue with the merchant/seller. 
Should any of the above mentioned happens to you unfortunately during your online purchase, Visa will step in to dispute the transaction if you are unable to FIRST resolve the issue with the merchant/seller. 
Not bad huh? 
clip_image003 
Do you have a case of Hover Finger like I do? Well, with Visa, I think Hover Finger won’t be a problem anymore! 

>>> http://visa.com.sg/hoverfinger <<< 
clip_image004 
Go on. I know you are one of the sufferers too. Probably is. Diagnose it, cure it and get protected.  That is why I am always smiling now. Time for me to book a trip to Japan to see the cherry blossoms!
Good luck to you ;) 
I am a Visa #HoverFinger #ProtectedEverywhere influencer.

On a really emotional note, I am beyond thankful to the sponsors who have came forward to lend us their support and trust to make this happen..you folks have really made my dream come true :*) THANK YOU! With the help of the team at VGY and Vainpot Boutique, we have managed to rope in sponsors which (most of them) I have personally tried, tested and love their products ;)
