A camera bag for P100.00

Here is a camera bag I bought OUTSIDE of CDR-king for only P100.00. You can buy it in the third floor of the Commercial station besides the Quezon Avenue MRT station. My CDRKing bag was already torn and it has only one big space to put a camera and an inside packet for SD cards. I think I got it for more than P200.00

Contrast this with my new camera bag, it has separate compartments for the point and shoot Samsung ES30 camera, with separate compartments for battery and SD/SDHC cards.


Worth the cheap price of P100.00!

Of course you be careful that your bag zippers are closed when travelling! They are opened in the photo so you can see the different compartments.

A compatible SDHC card for the ES30 camera.

I just bought today at CDRKing an 6 Gbytes Kingmax SDHC(Secure Digital High Capacity) card for 680 pesos. So far no problems, but we will report any problems encountered with this card in the future. Note that CDRKing sells BRANDED sd cards now!

The camera came with a Samsung 2Gbytes card, but with my usage patterns, can store only around 1000 photos.

Video!: A roaring Mambucal spring under heavy rains.

Mambucal Springs



Mambucal Falls is one of those rare resorts which are managed by provincial governments. Negros Occidental boasts a resort featuring natural water springs, a bat sanctuary, lodges, a boating lake, and trekking.

Video from Samsung ES30: Landing at night at Manila from Bacolod.

I am always fascinated with watching the city lights under the plane at night. This is under 5 minutes of video approaching and landing at Manila.

New albums taken with the ES30

We went to the the mountains of Salvador Benedicto town and have created two Facebook albums from it. Here is the link to the first album: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1818184228688.101217.1662608581&l=bfb87c1fe8

I still like my eS30 for its extreme portability. I can carry it in my pants pocket even! Compare that with a bulky dlsr. But I will indeed buy a dslr someday.
