maybe he refer an upgrade to a700

but i think he is looking for FF too hahahaha

calling for braynumb!


u is going to the regatta later today and also fireworks show tonight?

haaaaaaaaaaaa..........the same questions that i wanted to ask....the 'baby beercan', is it a good lense?

kit lens replacement =.=
i'm also having hard time to choose btw
tamron 1750
cz1680
sal 16105
sigma 1770
sigma 2470
how to choose?

i guess depends on ur budget too...and which is more impt?range?constant F ?

all these not much difference in price except for cz1680
the problem is I like both range and constant F
haha
why don't they make 1680 f2.8?

haha...u had to make the choice..or get 2470 + uwa...that solves the prob?? =p



btw guys...am i correct to say that..any usb to mini usb cable works the same to transfer our files out from the camera??coz i thinking of getting an extra cable..always forget to take it out with me...

for me:

tamron 1750 - nice constant aperture, QC abit scary (focusing issue), noisy
cz1680 - super good range, nice aperture and Zeiss printed on...i will save $ for this lens but RM2k+ for a DT lens,
sal 16105 - super super good range but i heard f/5.6 starts at 55mm, anyone to clarify this?
sigma 1770 - nice lens, sharp and fun to play with, cheap too, but the EX (IINM) finishing is
sigma 2470 - super heavy ...if i were to buy this, it will be the latest 2470 HSM coz heard that its good...

conclusion- save for 1680 or just make use of ur kitlens hehe

i would pull out sigma 2470 for sure - as it gears tends to stripped - and some more, a700 have faster focusing power!~ ermm, if i'm not mistaken, albert's 1770 got its gear stripped before.. that left Sonys and Tamrons..

i am using my olympus cable to transfer ..i tried using some cheapo cable without the booster (the round thing i supposed) and its DARN slow...

even 1650 F2.8 i oredi thanks god, like pentax.. (pentax have a nice lens range for APS-c )

The round thing is a booster ker? I thought it is only a magnet (dunno what the magnet is for - if it is really a magnet)..

EDIT:

Ok, got it.. it is a magnet to prevent static electricity..

so where can i find one with booster???could i get it from those online shops?

I think it's the wire itself.. maybe the older wire do not support USB 2.0? The one supplied with the camera is good enough

huh is it? i was told by some engineers long long time ago that it is actually a booster hahah like ur VGA cables or other cables...

but then if i use a cable without that round thingy, it is much slower hahah

achew: i believe PC shops have it

this shd works fine right.. http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/USB-Lead-Cable-for-...%3A1%7C294%3A50

but im not sure whether its cheaper from shop..lol...

it will cost > rm2.5k

if y'all got the budget go for cz 1680
personally i prefer tammy 1750 or sal 16105 ..

Congratz ! Nice pics you have there !

i wonder what is the size for 1680 if its f/2.8

achew: should target something below RM15
