SMRT Chalet at Singapore Airshow
21 02 2008SMRT was given a chalet at the Singapore Airshow for being a sponsor. For the 4 trade days, their valued clients were invited to join them to watch the aeriel display within air-conditioned comfort. I decided to drop by today to say hi to the friends at SMRT and give them some support.

Mentor Minister Lee Kuan Yew made a short visit to the airshow. Oh and to the photography buffs out there, that’s a Nikon D3 I’m holding in the mirror.. more about that later..

To many of my corporate clients who are looking at more interesting ideas for events, I found the Flying Club http://theflyingclub.sg which can offer plane rides for guests and event have the hangar as a venue for events. It’s located at Senai which is just 15 mins away from Singapore.

The following will be for the photography buffs who’s keen on finding out more about the Nikon D3.
The previous 2 shots were taken indoors at ISO4000 (Most cameras limit is ISO1600, this camera can take up to ISO6400 with HI1:ISO12800 & HI-2:ISO25600 boost). ISO4000 seems to be my favourite ISO now
Met a photographer friend who was covering the show for ST Aerospace and we brought the camera to darkened cockpit to test how the camera fares at low light. The camera’s performance definitely impressed both of us.

Here’s a 1:1 Crop of another image of the cockpit at ISO6400, HI-1 & HI-2. At ISO6400 it’s still quite clean, at HI-1 still acceptable.

Here’s another shot at ISO4000. You may click on it to view the full image.

Here are more images .. all the images are untouched straight from the D3. Aperture Priority, Automatic White Balance.
