Hey guys,

Check it out!

I've been learning to use my Nikon Z8 camera in the past few days. At the same time, I've decided to download the latest Davinci Resolve from their main website. It's totally Free. And, it has all these tools and effects you can use to enhance your videos.

Though free, there are tons of free effects and color management, and it also looks professional. Luckily, I've used different video editing software and learned pretty quickly. Okay, they also have a good help manual and tutorials that you can use.

I'm also starting to take videos using Raw and N-Log settings. The problem is I have to take videos without color. It should be taken with the correct exposure too. Check out the video above edited with Davinci Resolve. There's also a #short version here. 

If you watched my video on my YouTube channel, make sure you like, share & subscribe. I would also like some feedback on it. Appreciate some comments or tips to improve it. I have no idea if people like the videos I have taken and edited using my other camera like the Nikon P950 or Nikon Zfc.

Blackmagic Design's latest Products and Accessories.

Positive feedback will provide the inspiration to make more videos. I've been trying cinematic videos and learning methods that I could use. Currently, I prefer making short videos. Not, the #short videos but videos that are only a few minutes long.  

You can check out some of these short cinematic videos on YouTube and they're pretty good. I like watching short videos from Japanese and Japanese cultures. I also learned that sometimes, the camera doesn't matter. You'll still need to have good eyes to make good videos.

The most important thing is to love what you're doing. And, I love it. I love fiddling with my Nikon Z8, I like taking photos and now loving taking and editing videos. It doesn't matter what kind of pictures or videos. Just do what you want. 

I like that I'm learning and doing new things in my life. Especially, at the age I'm in right now. Just because you're getting older doesn't mean it's time to retire. You can still learn new things. You can still do new things. It ain't over, till the fat lady sings!

Camera Field Monitor for Mirrorless Camera and DSLR

I just remembered that I bought a new Camera Field Monitor yesterday from Feelworld. It fits my budget and it'll be useful. It includes many luts that I can see while filming. You can also use your favorite luts uploaded via the SD Card slot. 

The luts while filming would make it much easier to see and edit later if you need to. It beats looking at the plain video on your camera's small screen. I'm still thinking if I should use a gimbal or a camera cage. It would be an easy decision if not for both prices being expensive. Lol!

The pic above was taken with my Nikon Z8. I had just put on a CPL lens. The lens supposedly protects your main lens from the sun. Helps to make my picture look better too, I believe. As usual, I shoot jpegs. I'm just lazy. What can I say?

Sunday Retro Fun with Apple II Emulator!

Razer Blade 15 Base Gaming Laptop 2020: Intel Core i7-10750H 6-Core, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, 15.6" FHD 1080p 120Hz, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, CNC Aluminum, Chroma RGB Lighting, Thunderbolt 3, Black

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I've always been interested in computers since I was a kid. The first time, I touch a computer was in a military show in the mid-80s. I think I went straight to the computer booth a second time with my family. I'm not sure but I think, the first time was with my school class.

Even though it was my first time, it felt natural. I forget all about it until after my Army stint and I got a job with a government department. That's where I get to learn to use the computer for work and for play. It was such a fun time working there.

I just remembered that we actually have computer class when I went to a technical school to learn automotive engineering. But, I didn't really learn anything as the teacher only let us play games. And, we had to share so, I didn't get to do much.

I've actually worked in an Apple factory before and back then, I was pretty impressed with the video capability. It was such a long time ago, I don't even remember what kind of Apple computer it was. Everything is a blur to me right now. One time I met an Apple fanboy that won't touch a PC. Now, that's hardcore. Lol.

The only interesting part of my life was when I get to own a computer. That was when I really dabbled with everything that I need to know about it. I remember having to reformat my computer a dozen times because I fcked it up so bad. That's what you call learning by trial and error. Haha!

Frankly, there are things that I know now that I wish I had learned during that early days. That's why I love emulators. With emulators, I get to re-discover things that I should have done differently all those years ago. Best of all, I get to try out an old operating system that I didn't get the chance to play with.

Gaming is part of everyone's life growing up and me too, no less. But, I grew up in a poor, broken family that doesn't even have a house of our own until later on in our life. I remember playing games in a neighbor's or friend's house and at a small arcade shop.

The only thing that sticks with me is how sore my thumbs were. Being a kid during the early days of gaming and computer time means, there are things that I didn't get the chance to learn or play with. Like I've said, that's why I freaking love emulators.

The thing I really LOVE most is the laptop. The first time, I saw a laptop, I knew I want one. Don't exactly remember where I actually first saw one though. I only remember I had to sell my soul to get it. Somehow, I managed to get my hands on several different brands throughout the years.

Like they say, if you want something badly, you'll get it hooked or by crooked. Nowadays, you can easily get to enjoy all the glory of the past and probably the future. You have a computer right in your pockets. And, emulators are also available for them.

I guess I have to thanks the genius that created them for us oldie lovers. One thing I hope is that maybe the companies can do a retro build of their machine for the future gens. I'll love to get my hands on the early Apple I or II. Heck, I still have diskettes of files from the 90s. 

Wish, I didn't throw away or sold my old PC and laptops. I still keep lots of old diskettes, CDs, thumb drives of games, and software (mostly copyrights). The thing is, because of emulators, lots of the files I saved back then are now easily available online. :p

Check out archive.org full of emulators, games, and old software. Pretty cool!

A daughter of a guy I knew from work, Whatsapp me a link to this video. I'm not sure why they're making this. Maybe, for her school project or just to remind us about the problem of second-hand smoke. It's just a short video but, the message is heartfelt.

If you guys know anyone who smokes, why not send them this video or share it with your family and friends. Sometimes, we forget what really matters in life and think, oh, it will only happen to others. No, it can and will happen to us. The important this is to keep your kid safe!

*Update: Months later, I got chest infections from second-hand smoke. I cough so much, my ribs hurt. I couldn't sleep for days. After went to the doc and took my medicines, the X-ray showed I was ok again.

Re-building my house

NO, I don't mean building a house literally. But, reformatting and rebuilding my system up again. With all the patches online. It's going to take me a couple of weeks to set-up everything back to where it was. Albeit, with some changes.

As, I've posted before, my pc have been infested with malware virus that I can't seem to get rid of. I tried scanning, downloading all the anti-virus software out there but it just won't f***ing disappear!

Finally, I've decided to reformat my whole drive today. Before, anything happen I had already back up my music and some important files. But, I know some of it I can download again online. The thing is, it also mean that some of the program I am using currently is gone!

For example, my browser bookmarks has all gone and although I had actually bookmark it safe at http://del.icio.us it's still kind of troublesome and I'm trying to find out how I can transfer it back to my browser bookmark. But, I guess at least all my bookmark can be access again online. Just goes to show how important del.icio.us is to me.

After reformatting my drive the first thing I did was to go to http://www.download.com and find a couple of free antivirus, malware and firewall to keep my pc secure again.

I decided to try other company beside the one I had used before since, they didn't protect me in the first place. If you're interested you can check out some of the software I found and am using below.

Here's some of the site or software I'm currently using >>
Note: Links will bring you directly to the download page. Product info
can be read on the page. All you have to do is click the "download" link!

Firewall :
Comodo Firewall Pro

Antivirus Software:
ThreatFire Free Edition

Antivirus Software:
Avast Home Edition

These are what I'm currently using right now. And best of all it's Free. Of course, if you want better protection you can opt to upgrade to a paid version.

By the way you can go to http://www.download.com and search for more software. There are Free and also paid version. I highly recommend you to visit it. Rather then wasting your time searching the whole of the Internet.

Another, crap that I had to put up with is that now, I have to re-install iTune and apparently, I have to download and sync everything all over again especially my favorite video podcast. But, iTune didn't recognize my pc and it actually ask me if I wanted to erase my ipod as in reformatting my ipod all over again!

Yeah, right. Would I want to erase almost 30gb of music and movies on my ipod !!!??

Why can't they just act and sync with the freaking ipod without asking me stupid question!

Only with Apple product would you have to put up with all this security thingy that's actually making it hard for the mere mortal. I have always thought that Apple product are only for the exclusive. I actually advice my friend and warning him before he decided to buy an ipod to beware that what he has to go through just to put music inside his ipod if he decide to buy it.

My advice to him is to get other type of Mp3 players that's not too cumbersome to transfer music like the ipod is.

Argg.. my life seems to be in chaos because of this virus. So, finally I hope that I can now start surfing and doing my work online again without anymore trouble.

Got to get back to where it was before!

I guess that's all for my ranting today. It's already almost 12 am midnight and I'm going to take a good nice sleep before starting my online work again starting tomorrow morning!

Take care and have a great Sunday!

Oh, yeah by the way. Another week and it's going to be 'Eidul Fitri!

So Happy Eid to all muslims all over the world. May peace be upon you!

Life is a jihad itself..

My Virus week

Finally, today. I think I manage to delete a couple of viruses, spy ware from my pc. For a week, I've been grappling with this problem. I scanned with AVG spy ware and virus free software. It took me almost a week of keeping at it.

I don't know how I got it. Could be my nephew inadvertently downloading it or my brother. Of course, nobody admit it. But, slowly I manage to find all these pesky virus and deleted it. Argg.. my life been a mess this week. I couldn't do all the 'normal' surfing. Everyday, I "On" my pc and keep scanning to find the stupid virus who seems to be able to escape the scan.

Today, my friend was supposed to borrow me his Norton Anti-virus software but he didn't reply my call and somehow today, the virus seems to have been found and deleted. I'll have to wait and see how it goes. So far, so good though.

My advice to you guys is to download AVG free anti-virus software. The good part is that it's free and also you'll be able to update the software every time there's new updates. This is done automatically. They also have free Firewall and Spy ware software.

New virus are created almost everyday. Attacks are almost daily. I look at my firewall log and there's already 38502 intrusions!

I'm using ZoneAlarm Firewall software. It's pretty good and you can get it for free too. Of course the paid version is better if you're interested.

All in all I have a complete set of security suites for my pc but still some viruses are still able to get through. Most of the time though it's more of a human error then anything else. This is my pc but my brother and sometime my nephews when they come over, I let them play online game with it. That's when sometime these kids just surf all over the place and if you don't check out on them they could be doing something dangerous. Like the other day, I found out that one of my nephew wanted to fill up a form to purchase something online!

She almost gave up her phone number and address without anybody knowing it. Sometime, when a window ask them to click "Ok" to download 'stuff' they'll think it's okay and just click 'yes' without any thought.

Parents or guardian should always check out on their kids when they use the pc. As, you never know. I have always remind my brother and nephews to not just click 'yes' to everything. I keep telling them to just close the pop-ups and click 'no' to everything instead!

It has been a crazy week but I hope things are back to normal again by next week.

Of course, next week the Fasting month will start on Thursday or technically speaking it should be on Wednesday night. We follow our Islamic calendar.

Well, got to go. Have a nice day!
