go ahead...macro lens could b fun...and don limit urself with bugs or flower or water droplets...we can do many other stuff with macro lens =)

its a true 1:1 macro lens...wad not sure what u mean by "raynox+kitlens can do"...but its definitely easier to use than raynox...and if u wan..u can add on a raynox to get bigger mag too..

congrats...good luck on ur new toy... =)

actually after i read the website..they claim there is la...but not much details compare to the entry lvl(a230 a330 a380)...but from the news...doesnt matter if u bought a300 now...the spec is almost same.....just cosmetic changes..and from what i see..i don really like the new handgrip....

i know u wanna keep the whole cloud there...but the composition does look a lil bit weird to me with the huge portion of sky and tiny portion for land n 'sea'..

thats gonna b sad for me..i already have ppl wanted to buy my a300 eagerly..if they don release something for me to upgrade...how am i suppose to sell now >.< im kinda lazy to resell my stuff...so its a pretty good chance for me now >.<

if u nv bought it yet...perhaps u can delay coz u not really using..but since u bought it already..might as well keep it..u'll need it sooner or later...buy again only incurs more cost....unless

1)u really need to sell to fund a exp body..
2)u going to other camp so no point keeping...

the focus looks like on some of the flowers rather than the statue??

not really a fan for this type of HDR..hehehe...slightly over-cooked to me..and can see some 'halo' effect around the trees...and somehow i find that photomatix HDR add lots of noise...

wow..buying lotsa things recently??

maybe can shoot those bursting water balloons..lol

to be frank im not good at HDR...tried a few times but its not my liking...but to me..i think photoshop gives better control and perhaps can achieve better result if u don mind the trouble.....

hopefully sony jsut leak those out as a teaser....den suddently release a730(or wadever the number is) together.. =p

thinking of going out for some shooting with my gf...but dunno where is sg is nice...lol...and the coughing medicine is making me weak T_T

haha...frequent customer there??

*cough* *cough*

which lorong?? =x


ah moo..buy unless there is a need ma...hahaha..anyhow buy u'll end up with lots of lenses and bigger dry cabinet..i rather have a small one with some good lenses which i always use it...

hows ur macro lens...having fun??post something with it leh..

cz1680 *wink*

no pain no gain.. =p stop buying a few 'cheap' lens..and u'll have enough $ for it...

den don buy from them and u'll left 4 more vg to save...wahahahahaha *evil*
i use MF when i shooting lame stuff at home too...can take my own sweet time to adjust focus n exposure..so sometimes manual is kinda fun to play with =p

either they found the camera cannot satisfy their need..or the grass on the other side is always greener..

im trying very hard to jump too...from a noob photographer to a better one that is...

just got a call from 1 of my boss..my company humidity drifted...and all nitrogen supply cut off ....rough estimation 400 lots of wafers affected...lets say on avg 1 piece wafer cost 300usd...1lot = 25piece..thats like..3000000usd loses~woohoo~ T_T stil thinking wad to shoot just now..but now i've to prepared to be called back to help

not at the moment..hopefully =) business is going up...the only worry is no bonus for this year there goes my new lens..

looking at 2470 and 135...but would only get those if i got a FF...the range is not in my liking if i use it on apsc...birthday is coming..if sony manage to release a FF with live view..i'll get everything tgt
