Samsung Electronics has provided the author of this article with the mentioned digital imaging device.

Once in a while one of the Warsaw’s newspaper is organizing the so-called Photo Day.
Previous to that I was, took place in the Electro-Heating and some pictures is here:

This time the expedition was to the “Fat Katherine.”

It is one of the water intakes for Warsaw. It is set in a river some 200 meters from the shore. One way to measure the entrance to the underground tunnel is a passage of about 300 meters.

This time the tour was not enough and fast, just like the time for pictures. I did what I could, with the NX10 and EX1. In the dark corners good job was with 20mm lens, and sometimes flash.

One year of NXperience

This is the first post this year, I hope not the last. At home, more and more responsibilities, the time for anything less.

Time runs so fast that it’s been a year since I am the owner of NX10 and wonderful little devil named Natasha!

Within a year I became the owner 4 of 5 NX system lenses, I must say that I’m not fully satisfied because I lack a macro lens – so awaited, perhaps imparted to even fish-eye to enhance creativity.

Each new lens for me is getting better! Moreover, confirmed by various tests. But tests are tests, I prefer taking pictures than worrying about technical matters.

About The NX I can tell you – it works all the time just as well as in January 2010.
Counter shows nearly 7200 only photos, because I still have the EX1 which the counter shows2300 photos. This is a 9600 photos by the year, or about 26 pictures a day. I do not know whether this is a good or a bad result?

During one of the photo day, I managed to flood it with water, but luckily it survived and still works. I tried it also freeze at the snow – still works!
I have not tried to throw it, but it was tested by others with NX100 – still works!

In the beginning there were a few minor problems, but thankfully the developers have eliminated them from Samsung, I hope that it will introduce a few more minor improvements as the selection of JPG compression ratio, and AMOLED viewfinder.

By NX10 back my passion for photography. I always say that the pictures you can take by any camera, even a cell phone – hmmm pity that I do not have the Samsung S Galaxy only Wildfire with camera hopeless :)

During the year, it seems to me that I did a lot to improve my skills, I also know how much work is ahead of me. Fortunately, I have now excellent tool that enables me to develop skills and create new interesting vision.

I’ve heard Aoyama is the most beautiful one of them this year, so I went there to take pictures the scenery. Unfortunately, it was prohibited cross the pedestrian overpass, so I couldn’t take overlooking views. It was crowded with people shopping and taking photos.

I didn’t controlled anything with my camera, I just fixed to SMART function, which was automatically well-controlled according to the lightness, distances to the subjects. It was really convenient.

New Year Day is considered by most Japanese to be one of the most important annual festivals and has been celebrated for centuries with its own unique customs.

People decorate front door of their houses to celebrate new year and wish good luck. They call it “kadomatu”, which means pine of door. I could find many kinds of decorates in my town as well.
