I was given another opportunity by SONY Malaysia to hold a SONY Alpha camera setting for birding workshop, jointly organized with Studio Zaloon. The workshop started at 3:00pm with the registration of the participants, followed by an introduction by SONY Malaysia's Shaiful Baker, followed by my sharing of the birding settings for SONY Alpha cameras till 4:50pm. Mr. Chin Yoke Fee was kind enough to join the workshop half way through. This session was mainly on the settings of the SONY Alpha cameras for bird photography, which covers the SONY a7 and a9 series, including the latest SONY a1 flagship camera. Here are some of the images from the session. Thank you all for joining!    #FullFrameLife #MySONYLife #sony #sonymalaysia #a1 #SEL200600G #SEL14TC #alpha #AlphaGuru #SAG #NurIsmailPhotography #madebyluminar #skylum #skylummalaysia #luminar #topazlabs #leofoto #pg1 #Fight4ourPlanet #DiscoverWithMYAlpha #DiscoverWithAlpha #AlphaUniverseMY

Today I was given the opportunity by SONY Malaysia to share my birding experience with the new SONY Alpha 1 flagship mirrorless camera on FB Live. The session was hosted by SONY Store Malaysia's Kenneth Lee and ran from 2:00pm until 3:00pm. Despite the limitations of the MCO, I've only managed to give the SONY a1 a run from April onwards until the Full MCO last May. The session started with a brief introduction about myself, the camera gears that I have used todate, some tips & tricks of using the SONY a1 and finally ended up with sharing the images taken from the SONY a1 with the SONY FE 200-600mm F/5.6-6.3 G OSS zoom lens. Thank you all who have join the session. I'll have more sharing next time once I can put the SONY a1 to its paces from birding, sports & landscape photography. Stay tuned! Here are some of the screen shotss during the event. Thank you.
