memory card is less than RM100 (8gb 133X)..hence 3300 is still a better bargain:)

Killerz622: As I said earlier, you want a blue sky, you have to wait for one! A CPL can only boost a blue sky, but it cannot make a dull grey sky into a blue one.

nickilala: That depends on the shot.

For example, when you shoot a scene under a tree (shaded) it will look blue-ish. This is correct as the color IS actually slightly blue.

However, if you want it to look like it was under sunlight, set the WB to Daylight and your leaves will appear a rich green color.

Also, if you shoot under tungsten light, it will look orangey (which is the true color of the light, just that your brain 'removes' it) but you can set to Tungsten WB to remove the orange tone.
*
can try using a blue GND filter too...

speaking about WB, what is the best temp for dawn/dusk? Pics will turn out to be super blue...

its always good to have..but how often we gonna use the vid function...if i had a choice..i rather they give me better IQ or cheaper rather than having vid function...i have friends using d90 and 5DII  but i dont see them taking vid at all..lol..other than a few vid to tryout when they just bought the camera...

agree, good to have but not a must to have..
yeah, better IQ, and performance is more important to me )

guys,

this is experiment i did just now with a700+1680cz under florescent light

1. built-in flash fired. AWB
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

2. built-in flash fired. florescent WB
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

is that normal to get this kind of quality of WB from a700? I am using vivid creative style and the settings are same albnok one .. sorry, i cant check what is the setting because i am recharging my battery ..
*
dude, ur AWB seems more accurate than your custom WB. if u are shooting under florescent light, i dont get it ....why the WB turns out to be so cold...

eh, sorry din see that u used pop-up flash, try changing ur white balance to "flash" rather than "florescent", also try changing it to 5500k...

suddenly im curious with Tamron 17-50mm .. .... can any1 show me shots at F2.8 at 17mm? cause im pretty sure.. at 50mm... i'll probably stick with my 50mm prime... so the only reason i will get the tamron will be its performance at 18mm F2.8 ..see wat kind of bokeh can it get..
*
if u want f/2.8 for bokeh then i'd say go get it.

if u want f/2.8 for low light performance as it focusing speed then i'd say go get it.

if u want f/2.8 for low light performance so that you dont have to bump iso or use flash then i'd say dont get it, it will help but not much

hence i would recommend a SAL16105 over tamron 1750 but why?

its a sony lens which produced better colors, contrast, sharpness etc (i assume la, because i dont really fancy 1750 color and contrast) - PP can help but i`m lazy smile.gif

better range from 16-105....so far, i find that this is the best range that other makes did not make. the closest will be Canon 17-85 and Nikon 16-85.....for RM1.6k u can get a new 16-105 which I find it quite a good buy.....

tamron is known for its front/back focusing issue, i had 1 for 2 weeks only and i sold it off. ,mine had front/back focusing problem too and the seller allowed me to change to a new one, but the seller told me that the problem will resurface after some tear and wear...i duno if its true la, but overall i had a bad exp with this lens....

the bokeh would be nice tho... at f2.8... hmm... sounds like you've made your choice so far... hehehe...


Added on August 27, 2009, 10:52 am

well... that's true tho...

what other advantages does the 16105 have other than the range?


Added on August 27, 2009, 10:54 amP/s: know anyone selling 49mm Kenko uv filter?
*
haha, i just edited my previous post with sony's adv.
at least i have not heard of any flaws with that lens la, focusing problem, gear stripping or whatever...
afterall, sony lens is made for sony right? less worries ........for that price, its a decent lens to get smile.gif....i will take that rather than tammy 1750 at any time....
i havent try that lens yet but some said that it is as good as 1680 CZ. I tried 1680CZ and the contrast/colors are just awesome...(though can be done in PP but come on, do u wana PP all pics?) i would always minimize pp la, else what is the point buying a dslr? (minor ones are ok for me)

If i were to own another APS-c sony, the only lens that i will get is 16105/1680 (price factor smile.gif)

49mm for your 50mm 1.7? no need to use filter else get a better one smile.gif

Also, remember that flourescent light flickers according to your house AC (Alternating Current, 50 Hz) so you'll want to use a slower shutter speed if you are shooting without flash.

Try shooting 10 frames at 5FPS F2.8 ISO1600 1/1000s while aiming at a flourescent tube (at night) - you'll see how it varies. Either you totally kill ambient light by shooting F8 1/30s ISO200, or you maximize ambient light at F2.8 1/30s ISO1600 (depending on how bright your flouros are lah.) However it is obvious due to the flicker, that is why studios do not use flourescent tubes!

* Flourescent tubes come in different color temperatures. They are not always 4500K M6. Some are daylight-balanced flourescents (great!) and some are tungsten-balanced flourescents (2800K or 2800K M3). Some mamaks mix flourescent and tungsten light so I pick 2800K M6 for that.

millenia3000: Nice bokeh on the handle!
*
how slow is slow for florescent? anything below 50hz shud be good?
