@shutterdll i got from Fotosam at Time Square for rm300 other shops selling this model rm350-400 i'll say this brand has better look n the grip is better n it feels solid better than Phottix brand although nid pay more la... @project-o all battery grip for D40/D40X/D60 can fit D5000, cos using the same battery since currently dun have specific model for D5000 n not likely to have 1, so i got this @zellleonhart memang cun, look like D3 (weight maybe like D3 oso ) next time got TT or other event we can meet n i let u play play lor~  maybe this coming PC fair?

guys, especially those having D5000 u better read this QUOTE Notice to users of the Nikon D5000 Digital SLR Camera
Thank you for choosing Nikon for your photography needs.
While Nikon takes great measures to assure high quality in its imaging products, it has come to our attention that an electronic component related to power control in some Nikon D5000 digital SLR cameras does not meet factory specifications and may, in certain circumstances, prevent the camera from turning on, thus preventing operation of the camera.
Indications of this issue include:
1. The camera cannot be operated when the power switch is on, even with a fully-charged battery.
2. The camera cannot be operated with the EH-5a AC Adapter connected through the EP-5 Power Connector and the power switch on.
The solution:
Nikon has isolated the issues related to this and is effectively resolving them. Preparations are under way at a special Nikon repair facility to streamline the processes associated to the solution and Nikon will be equipped to correct D5000s at this facility, beginning July 23, 2009. Service related to this issue, including the cost of shipping affected D5000 cameras to Nikon, as well as their return to customers, will be free of charge. To further minimize customer inconvenience, Nikon will return serviced cameras promptly, employing (whenever possible) transportation that limits transit time to two days.
Is your D5000 affected?
Your D5000 serial number will make it easy to determine if your D5000 is affected by this issue. A serial number look-up tool will be available on this page beginning July 23, 2009. Therefore, we kindly ask D5000 users to return to this page on or after July 23 to establish whether or not your camera requires the complimentary service related to this Service Advisory.
If your serial number indicates that your D5000 requires service:
Beginning July 23, 2009, this page will include easy-to-follow instructions for customers whose D5000 cameras have been identified (by serial number as noted above) as needing service related to this Advisory. The instructions will include shipping tips and a shipping label generator will be provided. Using the Nikon-generated label is both convenient and relieves you of the expense of shipping your camera to Nikon.
We apologize for any inconvenience that Nikon customers may experience as a result of this issue.
Nikon remains committed to providing only the highest quality photographic products and hopes that you will continue to choose Nikon for your imaging needs.

QUOTE(raptorclans @ Jul 20 2009, 04:41 PM) no no... i meant I press half but it focus and snap right away...  I didn't even fully press... I bought body since u bougth body only, i assume u using your old lenses? using non AF-S lenses or using manual focus maybe is resulting in wat is happenning to u cos when dun have/not using auto focus, the cam will usually snap right away i think |

QUOTE(Victor3010 @ Jul 25 2009, 04:06 PM) Hey guys, Long time never post here. Don't you guys have any idea why continuous shooting uses less power than single shot mode?? The battery can tahan longer with continuous shooting. cos 10 single shots nid 10 times autofocus n settings detection but 10 continuous shots only change settings n auto focus once?  jz my opinion~  |
