ChINeSE NeW yEaR - dAY 5
I saw an ad by "BIG" (some electrical store at Harbourfront Centre) a few days ago. On it, there was a 6.0 mpx camera going for $88.80. The sale will end on Friday. Each day they will only sell 15 units.
This morning, I set off for Harbourfront Centre. When i took the escalator up till the 3rd storey, I got a shock. The queue was so FREAKING long. I thought I was early but it turned out that there were many more people who were EARLIER! All of a sudden, I remembered I live in Singapore. *shakes head
Since I was there, I might as well make the most out of the trip. I took some time to walk around their store. I must admit that their store have almost everything you can look for in it (except condoms! *lol) After that, I took a look at what they had to offer for cameras. At the same time, I decided to check out the specs of the camera in the ad.
It turned out that the 6.0 mpx was the resolution of the screen! *jeers The actual resolution of the photo quality is actually only 3.0 mpx! There is no optical zoom, only 4.0x digital zoom. *jeers louder Hearing these, I decided to repair my mum's Canon camera instead.
The people at the Canon service centre said there is a problem with the "ccd" (God knows what is that?) and there was a burning smell from the flash. The estimated repair cost is $100. Hopefully, I can get it back soon then you guys will get to see many nice pics soon! *smilez
the journey in life is long and ardous.. let me be the one who holds your hand & walk with you.. thru it all..
