From our PnSers: Project Camera, we’ve come up with an essay writing contest with the theme “Touching Lives Through Photography”. We picked Casimiro A. Ynares Sr. Memorial National High School in Taytay, Rizal as our pilot school for this project in cooperation with their energetic principal Mrs. Gloria C. Roque.
It was a successful event as we got 7 wonderful essays submitted by bright students who tried their luck. PnSers members find it hard to vote as all entries are great! The site bandwidth tripled as students and friends poured in to support their classmates. We even got an amazing 100 LIKES on FACEBOOK for that particular thread!
4th Year Angela Rose Rosales was announced as the winner on this event. Her prize was a 12 megapixels Polaroid i1237 digital camera, second placer is Bernard Marvin Quinlat who went home with a 7.1 megapixels Olympus digital camera. All contestants were also awarded with certificates.

Three months after, PnSers Camera Club (PCC) return back to Lualhati ng Maynila (Home For The Aged) Marikina City, to fulfill its promise. That is to give a digital camera for the HFTA staff. To help them capture and document their important activities and also for filing of photos for the elders.
In behalf of our group PnSers and donor Sir Richie, it was only me and fat_joe that went that afternoon of March 31, 2011. The HFTA staff headed by Ma’am Leonila N. Borja we’re very happy upon seeing us. They’ve almost forget about our promise camera and they though we forgot about it too! haha.
It was only a simple turnover cum photo ops ceremony as fat_joe does the shooting with his Fuji HS10. Sir Fat Joe is quite helpful in teaching the basic operation of the camera, as we can sense the enthusiasm and eagerness of Mam Borja. That in just a short period of time, she began taking photos of her staff. 
Presenting to you four of the many camera modification a Fujifilm Finepix S1800 can get with the help of a Kiwi Fotos lens adapter.
With the lens adapter, you can easily attach other camera accessories to your (S1600, S1800, S2500, S2800). Like filters of 58mm and 72mm size. It can be a UV, a CPL, an ND8, an infrared, a close-up lens or even a Raynox DCR-250. Then to top it all, a lens hood. (petal, rubber or collapsible).
So from the original tame design, it transform to a much mean-looking camera.
