The quoted speed on the CF is normally the read speed (which is always faster than writing speeds). I don't recommend Kingston as they are usually slow compare to other brands on the same speed rating.

Sandisk range are much faster read and write.

The 50mm f1.8 have a larger aperture compared to the kitlens. Smaller f stop value gives shallow Depth-Of-Field, thus better looking bokeh

I read from some books from the bookstore just now.

Would like to confirm whether this is true or not.

"Portrait shot must shoot at F8 or higher in order to differentiate between the subject and the background (and the pics is sharper something like that. I can't remember the whole sentence but it gives this kind of meaning)"

Its confusing me. What aperture you guys shoot for portrait.?

I think it meant f1.8, right ? Can you remember the book name or author ?

Is the A500/550 the worthy upgrade from A700 ?

albert: how to change sony product ownership in the warranty? example: I bought a 50mm f1.4 2nd hand, how do I change the warranty from the previous owner to my name?

Maybe you call up Sony CIC at 1300 88 1233 for details... select the warranty dept.

eV = 0 is correct exposure based on the camera's brain.
A human brain may intepret eV differently.
