So guys any interest in heading to the Landscape/Floral thingy this weekend as a group?
D700
bro out there. anyone have idea what is the current price for the D3? Now that D3x is going to come out in the next few months... the price for D3 should be more or less coming down??
xandman
not really...
they are both on a different playing field...
so dun expect a major price reduction...=)
currently 14.2 for new d3...

err shouldnt it be landscape first then only TT?

Was thinking of shooting the frowers in the morning. Yep, still got that Raynox.

QUOTE(ifer @ Jul 22 2008, 09:35 AM)
30 cents per square inch is the normal price a professional lab charges. you can normally get like 10 to 15% off depending on the quantity of the prints that you are doing. but do bare in mind that i am talking about lightjet (photo media at SS2) and lambda (comcolor nearby PWTC) printer on C-Type photo paper.

photomedia is where most of the photography artists go to.

comcolor is where i go to despite the fact that all my perks go to photomedia. the reason why i go t ocomcolor is because i know the person who do the printing and i can usually sit beside him at the computer and do test prints and stuffs until i am happy with the result. as for photomedia, you can have that service too but their prices are a bit stiff. the do not give me the 20% discount.

well, if you are keen on doing the printing, do give comcolor a call (03 4041 4419) and talk to ms. jenny and tell her that ifer introduce you to this lab. and see what they offer you.

and no, the price i told you just now do not come with any mounting. mounting is lain cerita.
*


thanks ifer for your help. i will try to get some nice pics first then proceed to check out Jenny, i mean comcolor and photomedia. i will mention "IFER' but does she know u as ifer? wont be anytime soon cos no shots yet.
but like i said thanks for your help and also thanks to darth although no solid info..... wink.gif

morning can too. i thought you might sleep in on sunday mornings since she has said yes to you... brows.gif brows.gif
it is a good idea then. morning shoot, then lepak with xand. flowers for the eyes in the morning, candy for lunch, and thorns for the afternoon. sounds good to me.

Lol... crash the private durian party la... I'm sure there will be enough for 2 - 3 more peeps. So far I've wanted to take some photos of durian but when I see the durian my mind goes blank till I finish eating.

Evening floral thing might be too late... 1) Poor lighting for shots 2) Denggi!!!!!

If you need to go at 3, meet up morning shoot flowers, then makan lunch/yamcha then ciao after that lo.

Hi all. Just want to confirm whether xandman said is true or not. Only D300 and D3 can capture red color sharply? hmm.gif
xandman
did i ever say that ONLY d300 and d3 can capture reds?
i remembered i said FILM captures reds brilliantly...
so did u get ur facts rite?
dun simply use my name as u like....


Added on July 22, 2008, 6:28 pmwell...in fact...
i din even say anything bout d300 and d3 can take red properly....
i wonder where did u get the idea of me saying that...

laugh.gif I guess I misunderstood you. Coz mindkiller is asking something about red.

So you said nothing RED enuff to kill u all. I tot u all means all user of D300/D3.

So sifu xandman, in current technology, all red color stuff will be soft right even
if it is a D3?

Thanks for ur answer. I just want to learn more about current technology. If D300
can capture better red, I will ask my friend to buy D300 instead of 40D.
