ahtsong - It's unnecessary to whine here about what's going on at other lousy site. Post constructively.

Any sifus here using or recommends using a 2X tele-converter lens??

Using it means that i get double the zoom (as in 200mm X 1.5 X 2 = 600mm total)???

Will it affect the IQ?
Adding a TC will degrade the IQ. You'll get softer image smile.gif

Guys, I would greatly appreciate if you guys could stop posting rubbish post like UGPM and stuff like that. Be constructive when posting. Don't pollute this thread with nonsense like that. Be sensible. Thanks.

I hv a friend start with D90 but smhow i find the camera wasnt really being push to d limit... how to say... hmm... like kancil driver go drive ferrari f1....
I don't see anything wrong with your friend but it seems like you are the green-eyed-monster. There's no such crap as you need to start with the lowest end camera first. Just like, nowadays you don't see parents letting their kids learning how to use PC using Pentium 1 or x86 PC right? They start with what their parents could afford say a C2D or maybe better. Common sense.

Just buy what you could afford and enjoy. No need to listen to those nonsense telling you to make full use and push to the limit as if there's a meter bar telling you that you are 99% on the limit or what. As time goes by, you'll upgrade as your need grows. Simple as that.

Criticizing someone who can afford good gears but boast around with shitty pics is fine, BUT criticizing a newbie who can afford good gears to kick start will only make yourself look like an ugly green-eyed-monster. Many don't know how to differentiate this. Do ponder.

well..perhaps the comparison btwn entry model vs mid/pro lvl camera...and the comparison btwn P1 vs C2D is a lil bit extreme...C2D is something entry right now..yet P1 should be placed in the museum ...  biggrin.gif

i mean its fine for a new photographer to buy Phase One as his first camera....but he might not really love photography that much afterall...so to start with a entry lvl as a tryout is better than risking all the money into something u might not hold too long..and i feel that..after getting something basic first..u..urself could feel what u really need..which way u r heading for...higher MP? better FPS? blablabla...

if u really know what u r doing..u would probably upgrade to that level eventually..so using lesser cost to find out what u really love/need make more sense to me rather than dumping a big sum of $..and found out u actually love cycling..not photography..
just my 2cents worth tho..peace  v(^^)
Perhaps the P1 vs C2D example was a little extreme, having said so the point that I would like to highlight is there's no need to tell others that you should get the most basic one to start with. It's their money and it's their ultimate decision to splash their cash be it huge or small amount after all they are the one gonna enjoy it. I noticed that plenty of forumers has the negative mentality of telling others to start with the basic basic thing and condemn those who started with good gears. Worst part is they are condemning newbies' picture just because they started with good gears. I'm fine in whether to start with either cheapo or good equipments but not this kind of mentality.

it seems to u tat im a green eyed monster. is so easy for u to come into a conclusion & no point for me to change what u think.  Is only MY OPINION that theres always personal preferable way of moving ahead & improved yourself. im just sharing what "I" will do.. example. i can afford a fullframe body but instead i wanna use d money try out more lenses n other options b4 i go ahead with wat i think suit me .... again ther is no point listen to these nonsense if this doesnt make any sense to u. i realise my mistake in pointing directly too specificly which camera or brand. thats not my intention & i apology for that. Peace.
No worries, my concern is the mentality like what I had explained on top. Nothing against you. Cheers smile.gif

Noobie question here. Which aperture size bigger comparing the F4.5 and F16?
The bigger the f number, the smaller the aperture. e.g. f8, f16

The smaller the f number, the bigger the aperture. e.g. f1.0, f1.2, f1.8
