No warranty... but I've heard you can convert it to local warranty BUT half the coverage period only... don't know it's true or not.

guys,
is there any of u owning tamron 70-200 2.8? .. how good is it if compared to Sony 70-300G and Sony 70-200? I have mixed feeling either to get just 70-200 2.8 or 70-300G/tamron 70-200 2.8 with other a few lenses like SP90 and BG .. I know, it is depend on need and my type of photography but I want to know the performance of those 3 tele lenses ..  .. really no idea what should I choose .. thinking of getting it by the weekend so that I can shoot thunderbird ... haha ..  .. |

Tamron 70-200 f2.8 = great IQ but slow focus, bright lens (of course) Sigma 70-200 f2.8 = faster focus compares to Tamron but IQ is not as good... besides, Sigma QC is a bit... Sony 70-300G = Small, light and easy to carry around. Great IQ, silent focus but does not have constant aperture so it hunts quite a bit in low light situation.. The sony one is more for outdoor... so it depends on what you need. I choose Sony because I wanted to have G lens and 70-200 is simply too big to carry around (for me)... |

QUOTE(albnok @ Oct 1 2009, 02:16 AM) MemorableStudios: You know seriously whether the handling of a dSLR is usable for video, since you have a handycam. Also I don't find it convenient to be both a video and stills person - best to be 2 people, or with the video on a tripod. plan to use with the DSLR with stabilizer system or tripods... it will definitely suck using by hand held... and i dont shoot videos with the tripod...Wonka: SL-1A - Skylight filter, a bit pinkish. Used for film cameras mostly. Can be used as a UV filter replacement also. Kul | MoO: The choice of selling the 55-200mm or beercan will become very obvious to you once you have both (especially if compared on the A700.) marushin: And there I was, trying to Google a picture of the A850 box (because it doesn't have the round corner with Alpha logo inside; instead I think it is squarish.) Banzai_san: The A5x0 does not have Zone and Brightness as far as I know. clivengu: Come to a TT and we can test for you. hkhk: Nice! shootkk: CONGRATULATIONS!!! And happy early birthday! anyway, looking at the advantage of being able to use some fantastic lenses and low light capability with creative DOF implementation.. the end result => more creative looking video... of course i will be doing either video or photo one at a time, but, i rather have two sets of DSLR that can do both video & photo.. than having 2 sets of DSLR (photo) and 2 sets of Handycams (Video)... of course need to invest in the stabilizer system (around RM8K) and some accessories (good mics, lens hood, large capacities memory cards, need at least a few pieces Extreme III with 16GB, etc etc... dont forget lenses... |

MemorableStudios: Having a stabilizer system at RM8K is kinda ironic because it can cost more than a video camera. It's almost like buying those expensive lens adapters to standard video cameras!
ohmyzgod: They probably are clearing their A900s to make way for A850s - after all the A850 will sell a lot more and faster, too. |
