It’s the Lighting, Stupid.

13 Jan

Lee and Patrick over at Fstoppers have put together a video that pretty much proves that good lighting can squeeze great results out of the most mediocre of cameras.

Their sensor of choice for the proof of concept? An iPhone 3gs.

Yep.

RuneScape – D3x Und3f1n3’s Youtube intro

10 Jan

Music: Hirano Aya – Kaze Yomi Ribbon (no English lyrics available at the moment) Here’s my personal submission for my YouTube Channel Intro, a little compilation with some of the things you may find for shits and giggles in RuneScape or weird things with certain actions in RuneScape upon my character. šŸ˜› Besides, that’s my instinct. I’m just doing what I do best. ^^ FAQ: ——- Q: How did you do those glitches!? A: I would love to answer that, but most of these glitches are not possible to do anymore as JaGeX has fixed them overtime. Q: How did you get pushed into a trap at a non-wildy area? A: That took place in a PvP world. Q: How the HELL did you made that noob hit 0s with d claws!? A: Using Vesta’s spear’s special attack “Spear wall” immunes you to all melee attacks for 5 seconds. Example when someone specs me with AGS (spear wall applied), the AGS spec will be rendered useless 100% within the 5 second boundary. Trivia: There are a total of three subliminal messages in this video, do you know what they represent? šŸ˜› HINT: They appear within the first minute of the video. Subliminal messages found: #1 “Miku Hatsune + DĀ³Ć—y = LAWLASAURUS! Ɨ]” Found by iThrowback image link: s197.photobucket.com #2 “~CROTCH BUTTER!~” Found by SteelSponge #3 [Unknown] Disclaimers: – I do not own the music used in this video. It is used only for non-profitable entertainment. Runescape is a registered trademark of Jagex LTD. My Runescape videos are made for non-profit entertainment only. If

1st in Singapore to own the Nikon D3X. Cost a massive SGD000++ but definitely worth it.

Nikon D300 Firmware Update

06 Jan

A “not great” Nikon D300 firmware update video. Nikon has a really complicated page on how to update firmware, so I thought this might be useful as a much simpler version. Here’s a link to Nikon’s own tutorial: www.nikon-euro.com and D300 firmware can be downloaded from: nikoneurope-en.custhelp.com But it’s really so much simpler: 1) Download firmware. 2) Double click on it to extract the self extracting zip file. 3) Navigate to “D300Update” folder. 4) Make sure battery is fully charged. 5) Format CF card (not sure that’s even necessary). 6) Set camera’s USB setting (Menu — Setup Menu — USB) to “Mass Storage”. 7) Connect to PC via USB cable. 8) First copy A firmware (ie “A3000110.bin”) to root of your D300s CF card. 9) Apply the update (Menu — Setup Menu — Firmware Version — Update) and shutdown camera when done. 10) Connect to PC again, delete A firmware and repeat steps 8 & 9 for B. 11) Format the CF card and you’re all done. Sorry for the crappy video quality!
