Level Up Content Creation with AKASO Action Cameras

I've been raring to find something that could up my content creation journey and yes, a 360 degree camera would gladly fit. It's been on my bucket list lately so it wouldn't be just the run of the mill interviews that I'd have but rather a way to show how we'd get there in a fun way. AKASO has got a line of action cameras in their arsenal that would fit any lifestyle that you have and they recently announced their expansion in the Philippines with the help of Siklab Spark Corporation (who's also going to have exclusive rights to distribute it in the country!)

At the event, they had the executives re-introduce the various devices and how it could take videos and content creation to another level plus a few more reasons on why one should consider an AKASO 360 action camera.

Here's what happened on video:

If you are keen to have one, they've got really good promos on TikTok Shop, Shopee and Lazada. It costs Php 12,288 on TikTok, also offered for Php 11,888 on Snopee, and Php 12,188 on Lazada. Make sure to use all the available vouchers to get it. They are also offering the AKASO V50 X for Php 6,988, and have it even lower on the same platform. Same goes with the AKASO EK7000 which you can get less than 4K with available vouchers. I think it's time you consider getting one. If that ain't enough, following them on these platforms would also get you the chance to win on October 22. They'll announce the winners 8pm that day. Make sure you also follow their social channels to know more of these products and future promos they plan to implement, because they've got plans to do so!

Can't wait to take it out for a spin today! It's time we take our shots to another level!

Fujifilm's Mirrorless Revolution + Camera and Lens Festival

Had the chance to drop by the Fujifilm event in New World Hotel Makati today and found some very new and interesting cameras. It's also their Camera and Lens Festival so it'll be an exciting month for those who love street and travel photography. I was really itching to switch, drooling over the X-T1 honestyly but I have yet to find a huge reason to do so. Aside from that it will come with a very hefty price so I might need to sell Trish (my D60 Nikon cam don't tell her!) but I wanted to see more reasons if it's worth it. 

The Camera and Lens Festival for Street and Travel is going on and the 30-50% discount for lenses is until the end of this month so you better head out to Fujifilm stores and authorized sellers if you're interested. Aside from that, the cameras go for Php 19,990 - 69,990 in different models X30, X100T, X-A2, X-E2, X-T10, but am still in love with that XT-1 as I said earlier. That's less Php 2,500 - Php 12,000 the original price, does that convice you to switch? I know, I'm already depressed knowing that LOL! It's going on until November 30 so you'll have tons of time to decide. 

My mentor Fashion Photographer Niko Villegas and other famous guys in the industry use these caneras and they've proven how the mirrorless cameras fare with the heavy and bulky DSLR. I'm glad I have the smallest one in the Nikon line but just imagine the other guys who carry around full framed cams at sky high prices these days. Sometimes, it's just not practical anymore. Another reason to switch. You get that? The mirrorless camera revolution is here, you might have the reasons to switch now and probably waiting for the right time, this might be it. It's the best innovation to have sharper images, right colors, not that much reason to edit and imagine the work you don't have to do if it's worthy straight from the cam. I spend hours doing that. 

The print and image quality is stunning. Sometimes I wonder why I've been holding on to bulky cameras when I could have just made my life easier with a mirrorless camera. It's got X Trans CMOS sensor with a random pixel arrangement, solving color aberration, moire and have accurate color reproduction in high resolution format. Better quality than dslr's and full frame cameras, without the bulky size. 

Here's some snippets during the event:



Congratulations Fujifilm! You'll definitely convert a lot of consumers after this showing!

Fujifilm's Launch Of The X-A2 and New Endorser Tim Yap

We had the chance to see the launch of the newest camera from Fuji a couple of days ago. In attendance were executives from Fujifilm Philippines Inc. headed by its President Takashi Sasaki (in full Samurai form). They are here to launch the new FUJIFILM X-A2. It's Fuji's best and latest camera  that has got an interchangeable lens, a 175' tilting LCD, automatic eye detection focus that would make this the perfect selfie camera. It's also got a direct Instax Share Printing feature that would be able to get your photos printed in seconds!

The X-A2 also has Auto Macro Autofocus and Multi Targeted Autofocus. If you are taking portraits, or subjects on matrix mode, you have that taken cared of easily. The tilting LCD was really meant to make it easy for users to see subjects even on odd angles. All of which will be seen in X Series image quality, a mark that only Fujifilm has.

The camera also has the ability to have interchangeable lenses, if the shoe fits, you can use different lengths which will give users the ability to shoot in different conditions and distances. It's even powered with a flash so intelligent, that it controls light output according to set individual scenes. So if you've got something against the light, it won't be a problem with the Fujifilm X-A2. Now that's something I'd want to experience soon. I didn't have the chance to use it during the event because people were just too busy with it!

We even had a few contests in between to win fun prizes such as instax cameras of different models. It even includes one that has wifi built in so you can print and send photos directly to your gadgets too.

Looks like their direction is into getting connected. The chance to tell your story through photography and making it easy for each individual user to share the media faster through different devices is not just becoming a fad, but more of a necessity. It definitely makes life easy.

Oh and it was the opportune time to also welcome to the Fujifilm family their newest endorser. It's Eventologist cum Talkshow host Tim Yap. He also had to do the compulsory X sign that's unique to the Philippine endorsers. Now, there's more cameras that would fit your lifestyle if it comes from Fujifilm Philippines. You may check them out in Fujifilm stores and partner resellers nationwide! Now I wonder how I'd be able to test one... so I could tell if it's time to crossover from the darkside. :)
