a700 going for rm3200 in melaka, body only.

Anyone wanna buy together? maybe can negotiate for more discount.

Why need Melaka? Sg Wang almost any shops also RM3.2k. LOL.

cos i'm in melaka now ma.. went to ask the shops here.

cannot push down summore liao hor?

should wait for the next gen alpha or get a700 now?

Seriously up to you la bro. LOL. a700 is the 2nd oldest alpha btw. LOL.

seriously, if the outcome is good, then its good.
No matter old/new body.

Wow, nice shots u got there. mind teaching me (and everyone else) how to make shots like this?

did u use slow sync flash for the 1st pic?

2nd pic PP'd kao kao hor?

although its old...but still quite advance for me.....
moreover could produce freaking awesome image quality...
RM3200....just buy,dont think....

I think la.. correct me if im wrong, because i always get these type of accidental shots..
very dark bg, with a slow shutter speed, assuming of the dancer making veery fast movements then maybe 2-3 sec shutter speed.. if got steady hands then no need tripod..

i think la.. correct me if im wrong tho =)

If you're printing from the photo printing shop, leave your colour space at RGB.

But if you print using desktop printer, or print banners, leaflets where the printing labs use offset printers, set to CMYK for best result.

Yesterday met bro ryzan & his wife. Nice guy willing to drive to see me eventhough puasa time kenak poison with his 16-80cz

Go get it now IF u really need it
if budget limits , then y u wanna wait for the new body .. sure the it'll b more thn Rm3k (like the first time A700 on sale)

how old or new doesn't matter , as long as u can fully utilise it and hv fun w it

from the EXIF, seems like hokc77 set the FNum to 22. with exposure of 1/3 and ISO 800, i wonder if he used very strong flash?

thanks guys. pic #1 was an accidental shot which i doubt i can replicate next time.

i used rear sync flash at 1/8 power (if i remember correctly)

oo ic, better convert CMYK before print? i've try using CMYK in adobe from a start but it disable some function.(maybe my pP prob)

i think its all depend on budget...newer models are definitely gonna be expensive compare to a700...if budget allow..i think should wait a few more days..afterall the leak is saying the launch date is 25th aug isnt it?

if budget is an issue..well...whats the point to hesitate...just buy now n enjoy =)

CMYK is for large printing shop where u print posters, banners books etc.. etc..
if u wanna print normal photo, sRGB is enough
