Aiyak,forgot u D300 user,then u are my big brother
HAHAHA.
actually the cheaper way to do cls is to buy Slave Flash Trigger.

i dun have the experience... what i want to know is comparing the same condition, lighting (low lighting) etc, which is better (in term of qulaity picture and noise level), having hi iso no ext flash or having low iso with external flash... if youre taking pictures in low light, logically the subject is near... unless u want to take of maybe sunset.... but still u can use low aperture and longer shutter... the problem is when the subject is moving (people etc), where u cannot use long shutter.... so the question, which one is better low iso + flash OR hi iso + no flash....

i'm asking because i need to decide to buy a zoom lense or a flash.... cannot buy both rite now....

Always opt for the flash first. In comes in handy in difficult situation like low light, indoor, etc...

i dont know about other's opinion, but i'd go for a flash first, its a must

D5000 doesnt have build in camera right?

err?? build in camera??

wahh new technology, camera in camera..

D5000 do got built in flash

lolx...a pns in D5000 kah?? =P

lol

im impress camera in camera~!

my first thng buy after d90 kit is flash. i found it very handy then i bought 18200. found i less using it unless got some event.. if indoor, prefer more on kit lense

mixo reporting back after missing a few months..
tested tammy 70-200 f2.8 @ Yl pudu plaza earlier Rm 3k flat.
super poison! wanted to test sp 90 mm actually bit no stock.
anyone bought sp 90mm lately. any good deals to rec?

thanks guys... majority (all actually) voted for flash, it is now on top of my shopping list.... planning to buy nissin di622 or sb600... prefer di622 because cheaper... wht do u guys think? will start research for both flash 2morow...

i want to get nissin di622 too, but no money

My Opinion :- Take the Nissin Di622. Power, etc...is about the same. Main disadvantage is Nissin Di622 can't be fired by most radio triggers.

i would take the sb600.. later when u got enough money u might want to keep the sb600 and buy a sb800 @ sb900.. CLS is poisoning too..

after research,share with us ! i want know too

radio trigger ?

pocket wizards?

Not yet not yet, i found flash is a must !!! very important, but as to budget wise.... i only manage to get a 50mm( my birthday present for myself) haha
Flash come next... SB600 ... any place sell cheaper than RM790 for brand new SB600?

Not sure about pocket wizard but the Cactus one and another brand I'm using and also slave sensor trigger doesn't work. Anyway... .the built-in TTL slave function works beautifully to make up for that.

did u set the flash as manual or still ttl when using cactus?
