QUOTE(ronnie @ Oct 5 2009, 10:58 PM) What would a next logical upgrade from 50mm f1.8 prime lens for portraits ? Low light is important 50mmf1.4 ? => joking  U might like Tamron SP90 f2.8. It's a macro lens, kind of slow, but the range is very nice.. (35mm equivalent = 135mm) and the pic also very sharp. It win me some small prizes for me..  if u want faster lens.. get the CZ 85mm or 135mm.. sure chun..  This post has been edited by hkhk: Oct 5 2009, 11:11 PM |

QUOTE(ieR @ Oct 5 2009, 07:44 PM) well, teoritically, it would work with all,... Oh... interesting... was surprised as Kingston is one of the reputable brands... could the new batch be "grey" or cloned ones?price? around 100+, u have to dig deep in lowyat plaza, i am from korea, i have no idea where can we get one. sorry cant help. the new batch kingston elite pro has problem, the old batch have no problem. i am using it, never had problem with my A300, over 24k shutter. How does one identify if the Kingston CF cards are new or old? Or maybe should wait for the next batch in hope that they rectify the problem?? |
