Yea, got it..lazy to custom make things, so just get 1.

I've seen someone at Cheer '09 use a homemade bounce card.. it looks like the material that covers furniture items like the legs of a chair or something.

Just bought D5000 as my first dslr. Not really worried about the faulty power issue as I guess most of the shops already "cleared" those stocks from the shelf. Still learning the right setting for each shot. Grains are visible with ISO1600 and above.

Overall: good image quality, many image retouch features, good grip with solid feel, fast AF, surprisingly easy to use.

very high quality material. and u can cook it if got bend under hot temperature
and the flexibility of controlling the bounce

congrats.. welcome to the red-lightsaber club

welcome to the D5k gang

same like you also..hehe .. but i just use a normal diffuser..

the sony f58 flash is a reallllyy good poison because of the way it flips and u can just use the built in white card when in portrait orientation...man.. u should check it out.. i hope that nikon does something like that..

those tat went for TT on sunday saw it edi... the photographer was shooting n we were lik looking at him...

How is D40 picture quality compare with D70s? Which is better? Thanks.

Lets me start with this bugs.... Sry about the blur clip.

Image wise...D40 is an improved version of D70s. Controls... D70s wins.

Improved on which area? Noise control? Thanks.

d5000 with 500d , which 1 too choose?

Get a feel for both and get whichever one that feels better in your hands. No point comparing specs and not one is better than the other. At the end of the day, it's your shot that matter. And whether good or bad, the camera is not to be blamed/credited but yourself.

but physically d70 is bigger and has better grip right?

Added on August 18, 2009, 11:49 pmDecide on these aspects:

1. The feel when you yourself hold it in your hands
2. The price, quality, versatility or the lenses, flashes & accessories of that certain brand/system.

e.g. Nikon SB600 (RM800) EQUIVALENT TO Canon 430EXII = (RM10xx)
e.g. Most Nikon lenses start at 18mm. Most Canon lenses start at 24/28mm
e.g. D40/D60/D5000 do not have built in motor so you need to buy AF-S lenses to autofocus. All Canon digital slr lenses can be used on all their dslr bodies which is good.
e.g. Current top of the line lenses: Nikon AFS 600mm VS Canon 800mm USM.


But the most important thing is for the dslr to be comfortable when you use it. Go and hold it both in your hands.
