I’ve been struggling with this decision for the last 4 months. My friend insisted I get a Leica, then later tried to push the Zeiss Ikon, but the Voigtlander Bessa R4A is what I finally got.

Okay, so I’ve got the first two rolls of film from my Yashica GSN.
I am pleased. The GSN was fixed nicely. No light leaks. And I notice from the shots during sunset it tends to make the light look redder than it actually was. Sweet.
The perfect camera bag is hard to come by.
I’ve got 3.
You’d think I’d have one I’d be happy with.
You’d think I was talking about two purchases, but no, it’s only one. And it’s the Sony Ericsson k800i. After much heming and hawing between the w810i and k800i, I finally decided on the heavier, chunkier, metal chasis (versus plastic), 3.2 megapixel (versus 2) latter.
After 3 – 4 Nokia phones, I thought it was time to give Sony Ericsson another try. My last encounter with an Ericsson was the GH688, and the other Nokias included the 6230, 8250 and 8210, all very solid phones. I tend to buy phones on function and hardiness rather than looks. And I’m not a frequent upgrader.
As I moved from Ericsson to Nokia many years ago, I found the user interface quite different and had to get used to Nokia. Now I find myself having to struggle with the Sony Ericsson once again. Overall, I think the userability of the phone is not as well thought out as my last Nokia, the 6230.
But of course, the highlight of the k800i is the integrated 3.2 megapixel Cybershot camera with a real Xenon flash. Yeah, no more of those puny LED lamps.
Okay, so how is the camera?
It being a Sunday, I tested it at my usual Sunday spots: Fairprice Xtra in the sticking-out-like-a-sore-thumb AMK Hub, Sheng Siong and some pet shops.
