Bro, i bot my A200 single kit lens in bintang maju summit usj last Friday, RM1599 include bag, 4gb cf crd and tripod. Its a damn good camera even though with kit lens only rclxm9.gif , and the best part its really really really nice to hold rclxms.gif ! I wud suggest u get that or if u want LV, get the A300....dont get A230, even the shop people in bintang maju was telling its not a so good camera if u r really serious into photography.....its like more of a camera for those who r looking for good photos, but not really a dslr...happy choosing! thumbup.gif

anyway..from what i see..there is nothing wrong with ur photo(altho the wb seems wrong but im ok warmer wb)...somehow i feel that the subject isnt sharply in focus..not sure whether its the picture too big or DoF is too shallow...

all in all..the photos looked ok for me..perhaps can work on the composition to make it more interesting/attractive...
just my 2cents worth as a noob blush.gif

owhhhhh....noted! Thx bro....the WB i purposely made like dat to capture the actual lighting condition....any thx bro for the comment! really appreciate it...check my blog @ the link below my a200 bar...got smaller photos there....hehehehehe.... laugh.gif thanks again!

not a professional..but i think 50mm prime is not flexible enough to cover wedding..it'd b good to have a zoom lens around....imo..if u only bring 1 camera..i'd suggest tamron 1750 2.8...if u bringing 2..maybe cz1680 + 50mm F1.4 or 2470 F2.8 if u r on ff...
*
oooo....tamron 1750 2.8 eh? how much the price now eh for that lens? I tried shooting few events wit the kitlens, aiyoo damn inconsistent performance frm the kitty! tongue.gif 2 in dark, one in hall during daytime....very hard to predict the kitty performance and the picture not sharp enuf..... sad.gif
Thanks achew for ur comment.... notworthy.gif ...ur photos shows u r a pro! hahahahaha biggrin.gif

Melv: Shoot at an aperture of F8-F11 in good light (faster shutter speeds of say 1/125s) with flash, or in bright daylight.

If you shoot with harsh light you will also get the appearance of sharpness.

If you put the Tamron 17-50mm on the A900 you will see a dark circle around the image at all focal lengths.
*
Owwww.....interesting!!!....how about shooting in dark conditions? is there any possible way to get a sharp picture with the aperture wide open? i tried some shots in the dark (in a club) used the built in flash, F5.6, shutter from 1/125 to 1/160 (cause lot of movement)...the pictures were ok if look at compressed size, but if pixel peep, memang out! sweat.gif

why the dark circle? is it because its too wide for the FF? blink.gif

melv : It will have the dark circle because the lens just cannot produce a large enough image area to cover the whole of the FF sensor.

That's the reason why APS-C lenses are smaller and lighter. They do not need to project as large an image area to cover an APS-C sensor.

Ooooooooooooooooo............baru gua paham! Macam tu rupanya......thx so much all sifus.... notworthy.gif


Added on August 4, 2009, 3:21 pmguys the sigma 18-50 f2.8 EX DC, is it FF lens or only APS-C lens?

DC = APS-C and DG = Full frame for sigma
Most of the zooms lens starting from 16/17/18 are APS-C lens.

ya la... If I buy a700 +50mm 1.8 ...
suddenly I will feel like... whooaa before this can zoom zoom (with beercan) suddenly need to zoom kaki to get the pictar  sweat.gif

but hell... even to find 2nd hand a700 kinda hard now... hurmmm...

well for sure a850 is out of my budget  laugh.gif
baby beercan is good, better than kit lens actually (in term of sharpness and built), but the range constraint 35-70mm is killing the effectiveness of the lens.. if you are in a tight space, u wouldn't want to use this lens at all... + minimum focus distance was like 1meter, (unless macro mode)

so what I can say is... these lens sacrifice its versatile for sharpness ..

you can refer moar at dyxum website
rclxub.gif  fikir fikir fikir  rclxub.gif

Ya i was thinking the same thing also...the range is abit on the down side....on the APS-C wil get only like 52.5 - 105mm..... tight space shots and large group shots is gonna be a prob.....haihhhhhh........fening fening fening rclxub.gif ......chosing the rite lens is one thing, having the money to buy is another thing doh.gif .....

Guys another question, A900 crops the picture to APS-C when we put in a APS-C lens is it? Does this apply Sony lenses only or 3rd party lenses as well?
