QUOTE(albnok @ Aug 24 2009, 10:52 PM) nickilala: A lot of smashpOp's pictures are not edited. You can get that kind of color out of the A700 or any Alpha. He's my colleague and I know we both edit a lot less than before (from the A100 days.)  Any Alpha can give you that kind of color. Set to Vivid if it's not enough, and learn how to set your White Balance specifically. How to shoot a blue sky? Look for a blue sky! SpOOkY: Interesting crop! cjlai: Whoa yellow rings from the owl! I thought it was the 500mm. ryzan76: Wow, I like how the fly is on a different background, a very interesting one, whatever it is! Killerz622: Unfortunately, Sony picked up on those accidental AF-point movers and made the A230/A330/A380.  hi albnok master, can teach how to set a accurate white balance?

Other SONY CENTER might changed you handling fees. Lasttime i my lens also have this problem. I send it together with my camera (Must bring both together as the lens warranty is covered by the camera body) They help me to repair. I found out the lens is more smooth when I zoom in / zoom out.

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.

QUOTE(ryzan76 @ Aug 24 2009, 11:54 PM) his post count is 0 and sell behalf of fren....can trust ka  sometime post count 0 is just because of he did not post in the forums that have the post counted.. If He always post at those garage sales thread ONLY, the count would still be 0. Search his ID in lowyat see whether he got other sales thread, and whether got any other ppl complain. If no other thread/post, then COD is the only way. This post has been edited by hkhk: Aug 25 2009, 12:23 AM

Pics will turn out to be super blue...

9900K, of course, to add warmth!  The Blue GND also works on buildings and trees that are in the sky view, unfortunately...

4R is 6in x 4 in. u can use 6:4 or 3:2 is the same.
Added on August 25, 2009, 2:02 amnow i have question.. Usually those Photography course sifu will tell us to crop using the lens. Get it tight or watever.. that is suitable if we are going to print on a 3:2 ratio paper like 4R /Super 8R.
Now the issue is: If we going to print on normal 8R, 2in length of the photo will be cropped becoz normal 8R is 8 x 10 in. Wat to do? Shoot looser?
