Samsung Galaxy S Kies restarting
Finally, I got some free time to upgrade my Samsung Galaxy. But I found I cannot get my Samsung Kies keeps to restarting in my Samsung Galaxy. That sounds some applications are crashed with Kies. I tried to unstall Foursquare. I remember after I installed Foursquare, my phone got some funny problems with Kies. That is not helpful at all. I think I need to format my SD cards.
I am still refusing to buy a tablet pc
I am not prefer to buy any apple's product. So, I won't buy iPad. That makes sense. But nowadays, there are many Android tablet pc in the marketplace. I am still refusing to buy a tablet pc. That is because I cannot think I will use a tablet pc as an ebook reader only! I can buy an ebook reader under $200, that is much cheaper than a tablet pc. Moreover, that is much much comfortable by using eInk screen to reader! As a result, I still love my Kindle and refuse to buy a tablet pc.
LX3 Trial Out
I have tired out my new camera, Panasonic LX3. That is not bad. The view angle is very wide. The camera is very light and LED screen is great too!
But I took a photo by Canon 30D before. I used the similar angle with this times.
I don't know whether the day I took the photo by Canon 30D got a better weather. That photo is much better than the one by LX3.
Canon 30D
LX3
If we zoom into the higher level, you can see the different is more obvious.
Well, LX3 is not a DSLR. I should not compare those two cameras.
I bought Panasonic LX3
I already have a Canon 30D, actually, I don't need to have another digital compact camera at all. BUT THAT IS TOO HEAVY TO CARRY AROUND!!!! Thus, I consider to buy a digital compact camera for travelling. Then in my list, I got Canon G12 and LX5.
Well, I found G12 is still heavy. Then, LX5 seems to be the winner. It is lighter and smaller than G12. It can take photo in 16:9,4:3 and 3:2. But it costs around $7XX. That is out of my budget. Too bad. Luckily, a friend recommended me to buy LX3. That is older version of LX5. That is only less zoom power. Bingo, I don't mind that. Finally, I got a LX3 in eBay. That is around $400
It came with some free gift, such as case and LCD protectors.
(Note that: LX3 got 3" LCD screen, it is larger than the other cameras. So, LCD protectors doesn't fit at all. )
