Here you go: Sony A300 + 50f14 + raynox 250

where the a500 link ?

Do you guys think the sony website will be updated immediately at 12 midnight when the new models comes out? LOL.

Added on May 17, 2009, 11:32 pmHmmm looks like a300 to me.

Hmmm i dono. Both are good. But i think beercan would be nicer. (:

Braynumb, the Sony 55-200mm F4-5.6 DT is a rebadge of the Tamron 55-200mm F4-5.6, with a different coating and circular aperture. (Not sure if the Tamron has circular aperture also.) The Sony has a 55mm filter thread to be consistent with the other Sony lenses while the Tamron has a 52mm filter thread.

no point to get the tammy if you already got the sony

fake to the max it's basically a a300/a350 with a model number photoshop

from what i read in reviews...the tamron 70-300 and sigma 70-300 is better than SAL75300. i would go for sigma..they give a lens bag too..

the new flash is unique!




sig, prepare urself for alien gun v3

ya...a700...so yummyyyyy.....

OMG..too much too read...last version i read V23...
btw, how are you guys...so many people upgrade olredi..im still not upgraded yet....

hmm just wanna seek an opinion from you guys...
if u give one opportunity to get only ONE lens below, which one do you guys choose:
1. Sony CZ16-80
2. Tamron 17-50f2.8
3. Minolta 28-135 f4-4.5

another one....

toying with 50MM D

[attachmentid=970808]

where's the focus point? 

hehehe....want some?

taken last nite...c&c r welcomed~

hurm.. but they better come with a700 replacement.. entry level won't hold back any entry lvl users long...

sig: go get a100!!!

just curious,

will the new SAM kitlens have any significant improvement? maybe in term of IQ or faster focusing speed.

then price for SAL1870 and SAL75300 will fall further

Launching of Sony 50mm f/1.8 means Minolta 50mm f/1.7  losing its 2nd hand value 

ya lor.. where's the VG?? using new batteries so not compatible with current VG wor

but the demand for the f1.7 should cool down
that might bring the price down a bit

I am buying the Sony HVL-F20AM!

The Sony HVL-F20AM can trigger wireless flashes from the A900! REJOICE!

The Nikon SB-400 can't do that.

The Canon 270EX can't do that.

More excitingly, if the F20AM works on the KM5D/KM7D/A100/A200/A300/A350/A230/A330/A380/A700, then you can have a front bounce light (from the F20AM) and a rear hair light (from the F42AM).

alpha_company, the flash ring adapter comes in a few sizes to match camera body height and flash height. You need to get the correct one.

hokc77: Focus speed is made of 2 independent factors:

1) focal length and how bright the lens is; a F1.4 lens will let the camera "recognize" where to focus faster. This is the lag between half-press and the camera actually focusing.

2) focal length, focus throw, focus element weight, focus limiter, motor - after the camera knows where to focus, it then drives to the focus point.

Now, brighter aperture lenses, even if they have internal motors, may be geared slower! The Canon 50mm F1.2 USM and 85mm F1.2 USM for example, are slow focusers (but necessary, it needs the precision.)

You may want to PM macdude and ask him as he shoots sports - he has the Sony 70-200mm F2.8G SSM, Sony 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G SSM and a Sigma 300mm F4.

creepydslr, the Minolta 28-135mm F4-4.5 is nice but the 1.5 meters MFD is very potong stim lah.

sidewinderz, it is said that Sony has made some changes to the image processing. We don't know until the tests come out. I am glad they changed the interface a fair bit, the A200/A300/A350 was quite "slow-navi" compared to the A700's Quick Navi.

Braynumb, of course the Minolta AF 50mm F1.7 will autofocus with the A200, and any Alpha camera. It has the screw drive across all bodies.

wht do u mean top f42 right and left f20?

me also want f20....
then the alien gun gonna be version 666....hahahah.....

nop......raynox 250 with beercan......with alien gun version 3      

err...F58 at the back of her head..setting = 24mm n 1/32

at the front of her..i put a reflective board (made it with alu foil =.= ) hopefully it could bounce off any available light to her face..its very dark in the room..and if i on anymore lights..the whole room would b lit-ed up...

camera setting(manual) iso200 , F2 , Shutter 1/200s...

some spam:
c&c pls

haha..ya...was using cz1680 but realized my living room is way toooo dark for the aperture....so i change to 50mm for a more flexible way of playing around with the setting..
btw the light part...it was purposely done in a warmer tone as the model prefer to have warmer photo..lol
