i always stand on standard 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 if jpeg in normal shooting because I believe creative setting comes from software not the lens and it will be difficult to tweak in post processing in photoshop. Eg. sharpness - camera creative setting is not selective in sharpness where photoshop you can do masking and choose where you want parts to be sharpened. But in raw it doesnt matter tweaking will be done in sony raw converter. Lately with commercial shots I do everything in raw.
*
yeah, on a350 also i shoot in raw... but on this monster, either i purchase 2-3 more 16GB CF cards or shoot in JPEG..
what rig u r using? to process this 24MP RAWs will be.. ouchh...

it should have the same quality as the normal hoya, according to the seller, but the high-end hoya one not available at that time.

IF you have extra money, please buy the high-end one, or else, probably you'll get one like mine  tongue.gif

speaking about UV/MC filters..

which ones are better

1) Sony Carl Zeiss
2) Hoya
3) B&W or B+W

QUOTE(Vincent Pang @ Aug 19 2009, 10:40 AM)
and i have highlighted the below statement
continuos shooting, doesn't say this will happen on 1 shot
i read this as being the ambient colour temperature which the nikon will read and transmit over so the situation is ambient + flash WB, which will give a more accurate result. Don't think so there is a relationship with output of the flash
this is the same as above

when we say compensation, wat kind of compensation we are talking about? +/- 100K or 1000K ?
you tested WB without using white/grey card? your eyes has to be very good and accurate without a reference. LOL

from the test that Seng_kiat has done, i only have 2 conclusions,
1) the camera or flash is flawed
2) you are wrong that Alpha WB doesn't go down when OFF the cam flash was used

Sp00kY: good question there, exactly my point in my earlier post

edit:
question,
if this is the case, why most of the flash need a flash sync. speed which normally is 1/250 or 1/200? it should be safe to sync up to 1/900?

please enlighten me smile.gif

great debate on flash... smile.gif
too bad I'm no master in this area... PP for White Balance is my thing...

I learned my lesson somehow...no matter how I pp, sometimes, when the color wasnt captured properly, no matter how I pp also i cant get the right result.

extreme case, shooting in tungsten and set my WB to 8000k....
most of the colors may not be captured in this case and the histogram might be heavy towards one channel (blue i pressume) i might be wrong, smile.gif

Correct me if im wrong.
*
of course, extreme cases may be difficult... but i'm using the cobra+a900+dome diffuser its quite reliable in AWB.. some minor white balancing only..

oh god.. A230 & A330 is a disgrace to current alpha users.. very dissapointed with them... cost-cutting models... but the savings not passed to the customers..

grab the older A200/300/350 while you still can..

The poster is very misleading....

At 1st glance I thought A330 sells at RM699 with flash, extra lens and bag.

Dont misjudge with the word PWP (Purchase with purchase)

You need to top up of your purchase in order to get those.

can consider for my 2 year old nephew.. his hand is probably small enough to hold it... smile.gif

yeah... thanks... it really is a big help... 15 continuous bounce flash shots at 5fps.. no problemo.. smile.gif
anyway, 15 continuous is just for test.. WARNING!!! do not go more than 20 at a time...

raist86: A new A700 can go close to RM2999. Try Studio Zaloon in Pudu Plaza.

Killerz622: For Nikkor AF-D lenses you need to set the aperture ring to F22 (or whatever aperture is marked in orange color) to allow the Nikon body to control aperture.

a700 already out of stock in Studio Zaloon... even i doubt he can give for 2999... the best price for this (body) is 3.2k.. and its very rare now to get...

a900 at studio zaloon 72xx (can pow some free gifts oso) smile.gif
