Hi All,

I've just gotten myself my first DSLR this evening, a Nikon D60.

I almost make a decision to invest on D5000 but after weighting in alot of factors, especially the price, I think I can forgo Movie Mode, 7 point AF, articulate LCD (which is not side hinge) and the D90 sensor. All that for RM1k less is definitely worth it.

I'm sorta looking for some accessories but not too sure which is the best place to look for it in KL/Pudu.

3rd Party accessories also no problem.

1. Hand Straps (definitely 3rd Party)
2. Battery Grip (definitely 3rd Party)
3. LCD Protector (I guess only 3rd Party, don't seems to have what D90 have)
4. Flash (basic with variable angle will do, gonna use card board to diffuse the light or rice paper)

Need to get those item cheap and I might be prowling in the Garage sale for it.

Looking forward to get kimurastanley's gear: the Tamron lens and flashes. I know that without that lens, I can't do bokeh in a non Tele lens...

Shed some light, fellow Nikonian!

At f1.8/f1.4, i think bokeh is effortless with lens of such spec but it's a prime 50mm... would be better if it got the same range as my kit lens 18~55mm and got f-stop of 2.8 and lower(which is bigger aperture).

Saw a Tamron with that spec but the price easily could help me get another D60,

Anyway, I am going to do some serious shoots this Thursday and Saturday...hope the camera brings out some wonderful results!

Did you PP that photo or she is really that good or it's purely equipment and your skill? Damn cun!

Anybody here uses a 3rd Party battery grip on a D60?

I've been to digital mall and checked out the item and I find the plastic is really flimsy and not quite suited for the job to be mounted to the camera, relying solely on the tripod screwmount.

Anyone know, besides Shashinki.com, to get cheap but authentic Lowepro gears, flashes and battery grip?

And a crystal screen protector for the D60.
