The long tour begins 西部之旅

We have always looked forward to explore the western side of Mainland China which requires longer time to tour. We are glad the opportunity has finally come. Destinations will include Qinghai, Gansu, Xinjiang or Tibet, and Northwest of Sichuan.

My first compact digicam - Olympus XZ-1

After playing with DSLR for a couple of years, I finally decided that I do need a smaller and lighter digital camera that allows me to carry around easily and for short vacation trip. Me and my wife shortlisted three cameras in the same range, ie. Canon S95, Panasonic LX5 and Olympus XZ-1. We picked XZ-1 for its image quality, fast lens (F1.8) and stylish finishing.
