Being the 1st time I play with the software, I just Kasi Hantam only.

As I make more and more of these, I doubt I will ever fiddle with so many of them transitions :-)

Don't worry, I appreciate the C&C. (esp the critique because I will learn from it. Else I might as well ta-pau and sell my camera)

LOL!

hidden costs? plenty.

The most "bad" hidden cost is yourself and your suceptibility to poison from fellow forumers. (esp viking. He's very BAD poisoner)

Worst of it all is that you buy cheap SLR, then later you upgrade to this, that and then more upgrade and then even more upgrade and before you know it, already RM30K spent!

Indeed, like what myjunk said. The hidden cost comes from you yourself. The more you can resist, the lesser cost are involved. Unfortunately, you poison shield gets weaker and weaker each time you joined our TT. biggrin.gif

Seems like some people just don't learn. Wherever he goes, he'll blame everything on his tools rather than his skills. Anyway the people there seems like got used to him already. sleep.gif

For that budget.
If you want the best for ya body, get a used Canon EOS 40D and IS kitlens

If you want the best for ya lens, get a used Canon EOS 450D and start with Tammy 17-50mm f2.8 and EF 50mm f1.8

But a bit tone down I think. However, now acting blur it seems is the trend. LOL..


Woi Blanket : YOu sure your shield is strong? keke..

Get the 450D from raymanlucas lah. He's selling. can save a bit.


All in all this is what I would surmise

Camera : 5D Mark III RM9K
Flash : Canon 580 EX III RM 1.7K
Battery Grip : Canon BG-EX RM800
2x Battery : RM400
CF Card : 2x 16GB Sandisk RM1.4K
Lens : Canon 85L + 70-200 L IS RM 12K

Total Damage = RM30K(??)

Result? Still bad photographer!! whistling.gif whistling.gif

(Edit : Like me, although I don't have the Mark III yet)

on a more serious note -> depends on what you want to shoot and how much you want to spend. (in the long run)

Recommend 40D for best bet so you won't need to upgrade then get a 4GB CF (RM80 or so i think)
Tripod + Bag + filter will be free with camera anyway
