got my camera back!

and I’ m glad.

Today I felt a sense of relief to get my camera, my DSLR, my Nikon D80 back from the repair shop after almost two months!

I had my camera repaired because of problems after I used my camera at the beach. Somehow, it wouldn’t take any picture but the shutter would still function. I was really upset to realize that my camera was broken and it hasn’t even reached a year of use!

I felt weak in most point especially when I would have to go to events since I couldn’t capture the moment. Although it’s also good since I’m able to focus myself on other things such as maximizing my blog to earn more money and such, I still wanted to get my camera as soon as possible.

I had the camera repaired at Camera Care in Cebu. The repair man told me that I could get it back after two weeks. But then after how many follow-ups, it went up to two months. Right now, I’m really just happy that I got it back. It cost me an arm too. darn it.

I was planning to sent it to Manila to have it serviced in the Nikon Service Center, I don’t know why Nikon still hasn’t set up a service center here in Cebu. Anyway, when I called them up, they told me that it wasn’t covered with warranty even if I had the warranty slip since it was purchased in the black market. Sigh. To think that I had the official international warranty with me, they told me that the warranty was only good outside the Philippines (which explains the international tag, duh!).

Anyway, the good thing is that I got it back and it has two months warranty from the local repair shop (Camera Care). What’s up with the number 2? hehe.

Now I’m ready to snap away… only I have to get used to the camera again. My skills have somewhat decayed due to its absence. Sheesh.

my nikon d80

I received a comment in my previous blog snapshot from a visitor named Felix

Through your lens I see the world. Keep up the good work. Hope I could one day visit these places.

Although it may only be a simple comment, somehow it struck  a cord because of the simplicity but depth of the reaction. It’s nice cause it makes me appreciate the things that I do just for the heck of wanting to post pictures of places I’ve been to. It does hold a fact that whenever we write something, or publish an entry, we are seeing a life of another person in their eyes; or in this case, lens. I hope to share more facts and tidbits in this blog as I still have a number of pictures stored. Although I do have another site where I talk about how I got to these places, I give more focus on pictures here since we can appreciate the shots even better.

I hope to capture more places, events, things and random what-nots.

My Nikon D80 

This was taken in a condotel room in Manila called Torre Venezia. Spent two separate weeks there for a business trip and decided to play with my camera since i just bought a tripod and took a shot in front of the mirror.

Last day in Manila, I’ll be going to Enchanted Kingdom to experience my childhood dream of being able to enjoy rides in a theme park. Will be posting pictures soon. I should be updating this site but I’m a bit busy (excuses again).

Leaving now for Manila… but I haven’t even posted the pics from Davao. Oh woe is me, when will I be able to upload the pictures from my travels to edsnaps? I don’t seem to have the time already. Been pretty busy with work and such but I don’t want to give a tirade of rants just because I can because this is my blog. hehe.

Anyway, I’m just posting something for the benefit of posting. I’m also taking advantage of the free internet here at the airport. My flight is almost ready, I’m boarding the plane.

Still in Greenbelt
They also have a fountain at the center. It’s nice cause a lot of kids usually play with the water, like I always did when I was also a kid.
