Polaroid Hong Kong instant film camera

Fujifilm 的 Instax Square

對寶麗來那個 iconic 的四方格式及外框一向情有獨鐘,Fujifilm 那部#Instax210 的格式一真未能滿足, 總是覺得差點什麽的….
那只好一直忍受 Impossible Project 一盒才 8 片的底片、每張要 20-30 分鐘的顯影時間 (說好的即影”即有”呢?) …

顏色不符? (下)

之前示範過看圖時有機會出現的誤差,這次試試拍照時做成的錯覺。
用家們最常接觸到的圖片都不是各品牌的官方圖片,而是在社交網絡、討論區或者在 IM ( 例如 WeChat, Whatsapp, Line 之類之類) 裹朋友之間互相分享的圖片,所以有不少顧客是參考著這些圖片來查詢的。這些圖片大部分都是以手機拍攝,而其實手機拍的圖片不一定失準的,懂利用光源也可以有很接近的效果,但普遍上用家自拍的圖片都是分享喜悅為主,那會花心機去試這試哪呢?而且圖片不是無添加完全沒有修整過,就是按拍攝者喜好修過的圖,種種因素下出現的顏色偏差是很合理的啊。所以當看到其他用家的自拍手錶/錶帶照時,參考外型無妨啊,色澤嘛…..

Panerai Vs. Ennebi, the Bronzo

When carrying the watch, the Panerai feels solid, while the Enebi is a bit shaky and loose in the bezel. The Italian flag behind the Enebi adds the military touch which we like a lot, we prefer this over the naked back of the Pam382.

Product Photos !!

Conventional wisdom says to stop down to f8 or more when shooting the product shots, in order to get that critical detail of the product ! Surely the consumers would want to see the product in greater and clearer detail, and we did exactly just that in our online shop !

Teseo Tesei and the Panerai

Teseo Tesei was an Italian naval officer who had invented the human torpedo in the 40s. The torpedo known also as the S.L.C., the pig, and the maiale.  It later became the icon of the Panerai watches, and only recently did Panerai release the PAM 785 set which includes the little Pig made of resin. Today’s Italian Commando Frogmen group is called, […]

Charity work: a social responsibility

Back in the Year 2012, we helped a friend to a fund raising activity, and we used the money to buy sleeping bags and food. The provisions were distributed to the schools and people in an area called Anemaqin, located in Qinghai. Anemaqin is a Tibetan community, the area is very isolated and remote, combined with the altitude sickness, our journey was not all Four Seasons !!

MEET THE CREATOR 他是誰?

由以前到現在 James 都不是一個做”生意”的人,以前聽他說每條錶帶的”出處”,如何在選料上和結構上一定要盡量把歷史複製的極度偏執,我們都說他是一個瘋子(其實這也解釋了為何我們錶帶上的號碼是不接受隨意改寫的)。 他對軍事和手錶的知識都變成物件,只是這次他復出後比以前的範圍還要廣,每件事做得比以前更加深入。 到 Panerai 專門店時,你有被他們用作裝飾那只潛水艇吸引嗎?「對不起這個是不賣的啊….」已經不記得被太子大廈的 Ricky 反覆婉距了多少次。一直到去年推出的 785 set 才終於有機會擁有這只魚雷。我們都知道 Panerai 的經典都離不開潛水艇-SLC (意大利文 Siluro a Lenta Corsa 的簡稱,中譯-慢速魚雷 ) ,他,Teseo Tesei,這位鬍子先生就是 SLC 的發明人。 Teseo Tesei 除了是軍官和海軍工程師外,他更對今天 Panerai 的飾品有很直接的影響。
