light travels at approx. 300000000 m/s, if you put your shutter speed at 1/8000, the flash light can theoretically reach 37500m, which is 37.5KM away.

i more reasonable explanation is that beyond the recommended sync speed, either 1/160s or 1/250s, depending on body used, the camera is unable to communicate with the flash in time for the shutter and the flash to fire in-sync? perhaps an electronics major could answer better tongue.gif

not just electronic major.... you need a physic major, because light, are particals. they travel randomly (Not in straight line) then they get dispearse.

meaning, when u fire 1/1, it release 1 billion partical, but 50% goes side ways.... the 20% of the last 50% bounced off by surfaces they meet. the 20% of the last 30% never made it pass 10 metre, and the last 10%, well, if u shoot at F11, only 1% made it through. tongue.gif but 1% is 1 million partical~!!! but still not enough coz the iso100 block unstable partical out. so end up. u get underexpose photo

*thus why we have snoot (zoomed flash) to concerntrate the light partical direction


Added on October 21, 2009, 12:46 amoh, not to mention the partical that trapped by the darkness

and thanks amadeo for

Hi all, my SAL1870 when turn to MF, I rotate it to infinity focus(AKA the maximum turn), the focus seems not correct,  I need to rotate back abit in order to get the correct focus. Noticed this since I own my camera and I thought it is normal. So, is this a problem? Should I send to Sony centre for calibrating the lens focusing?
*
yup normal. even some of the 55-200 also like that.

Guys, anybody compared phottix and octopus battery grip? How "bad" are them compared to the Sony brand?

there are some happy owner of octopus, they quote is better, idk, but material for a price, definately sony's has higher quality, summore the big round screw thingie is noticable in the front on phottix and octopus, while sony one nicely stealth it in front smile.gif (i assume u know bout the auto change battery, so i skip it) that the worth/value of paying extra 400 =.=|||

KM135 F2.8 i last seen one 2nd hand priced at 1.6k it's cheap but i rather save the money to grab a sal70-200 F2.8 (1.6 is 30% of the full price)

watchman from Photoborneo owns one and did a light review of this vs sal135 stf. and, still the STF FTW

well... PP is A LOT OF JOBS and take a lot of Time... before i pick up photography, i used to do PP for a lot of people and functions...

when i pick up photography, my mindset change, i wan to spend more time in shooting then PP. so compose ur best, use the right setting(learn it!), use jpeg wink.gif (using raw prompts u to do more editings, and jpeg enough for the camera to last up to 2.5k pic).. and, u can double shoot/burst everything... because even u shot raw, if the photo out of focus, it's out of focus, no matter how u PP, its out of focus, so i rather have 3 shots of same thing with repress the shuttle for refocus then 1 single raw.

raw is good for product shooting, where u compose nicely, then adjust the color later (usually photoshop can edit the white balance on jpeg anyway)


btw, even my PP skill amazing, but i still dunno how to make a gif >.< can someone help me gif the above 6 pic?

lighter usually mean plastic. and heavier means more metal parts and bigger lens piece. smile.gif so which is better, u decide.

sony1118 is very very tempting, but i just brought 2 lens so need wait for another 6 month or so...


Added on October 23, 2009, 3:46 pmcorrection, not that i brought 2 1118, i brought 2 other lens, so 1118 have to hold for 6 month.

ieR: Of course, the background is much further away from the subject than the tree is.

No, the bokeh from the Tamron 70-200mm F2.8 is quite... plain and un-Minolta-like. It also lacks longitudinal chromatic aberration, and some people might like the Tamron because of this. The Sony 70-200mm F2.8G SSM however is very much like the Minolta 70-210mm F4 beercan but minus the purple fringing (I use this lens as reference since more people have had this.) It's too bad you don't have the Minolta 70-210mm F4 beercan, or you'd know what I'm talking about - the look is very different from the 'modern-looking' Sony 55-200mm F4-5.6 DT.
