Me 2nd. Will post my Stealth A200 afterwards.  tongue.gif
Here's my Stealth Alpha for those wondering what it's all about. I was supposed to do a write up on how I did it but haven't until now due to unforeseen circumstances. It should be done in a few days. Have to go to my other house n get the stealth materials 1st coz this house don't have the materials I need.

Still not recommended to go Sony centre to buy la. LOL. 50mm for me sometimes also too far. Use UWA for portraits. =p

just of a matter of preferences... coz my fren does bought his alpha at SS...
some people get the feeling ease of mind coz they get their stuff from the brand outlet itself..
not just from other retailer...

QUOTE(millenia3000 @ Jun 30 2009, 09:10 AM)
marketing strat la tue, tukau2 nama, nak appear special konon... just look at SSS when i first saw SSS it reminded me of a Tamiya Mini 4WD model i had when i was younger SSS=Super Shooting Star http://www.etamiya.com/shop/tamiya-18045-d...p-90002720.html

not only faster, quieter! the in-body motor is noisy la at times... not to mention if the lens barrel big big wan the motor has this mini vibration feel to it... SSM dun have all this... wink.gif  icon_rolleyes.gif

Added on June 30, 2009, 9:13 am

ini mau berdiri dekat dekat sama model la ni!! hahaha.... dude UWA has distortion la... maybe la some portraits u wanna add that look, so ok la... but i think 24mm on UWA shud give a comfortable "not-so-distorted" angle of view la... wink.gif
*
the exaggerated angle of view = flex.gif

QUOTE(Sp00kY @ Jun 30 2009, 09:13 AM)
yes it is way faster
erh,for me, portrait musnt always be 50mm....however,the longer the focal length the dreamier the bokeh (provided you shoot at the biggest opening)
i think i like 50mm and 85mm primes but 85mm is pretty restricted oh?
*
the only thing i hate with wide aperture opening is the shallow DOF... can easy OOF la.. sweat.gif sweat.gif doh.gif
around f2.8 slightly better la...
