QUOTE(quintesson @ Oct 11 2009, 01:55 AM) i understand a300 is obsolete but what is the last pricing for it (as a guidance only)? i intend to get it as my 1st dslr because of its 'live view' where else nikon & canon do not have? oh btw what is the function of Hoya CPL filter do we really need it? to me its just a name..other brands shd have their respective "liveview"...maybe sony is a lil bit better in this aspect..but i nv really compare against other liveview b4..so im not going to comment it.. i would advice u just to get ur camera + lens + memory card...don buy any additional batt/filter/tripod/grip/flash blablabla right away...just play with the default camera first...u can always buy those when u feel u have the need for it..

QUOTE(quintesson @ Oct 11 2009, 02:08 AM) i've read photographyblog review about the a330, it is not as good as a300 in term of handling & feel. as for a550 is still very new & the price is not gonna be lot cheaper than the obsolete a300.  my main consideration is i'm a beginner & a300 already given what i need anti shake, anti dust & live view + most of all a more affordable price for me to learn b4 climbing up the ladder. try to find a second hand one???i bet when 500/550 is here..u gonna see alot ppl selling their 300... too bad the price is exp in singapore..actually there r alot ppl selling a300~a700 due to upgrades... |

QUOTE(hkhk @ Oct 11 2009, 11:54 AM) Somebody mentioned shooting in snow? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « No problem! My A200 still alive.. Pardon the bad exposure. I just bought the camera 2 month before I went there. Of coz, it's not covered by snow la. ------ 50D is mid range APS-C compare to entry level 400-500D ? U pay more u get more.. that's the norm. hmm..any alpha with problem in snowing area??i guess not..  » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « batt life wise..i didnt notice any drastic changes...probably 5%~10% shorter..i cant feel it at all |

QUOTE(ieR @ Oct 12 2009, 12:25 AM) mmm no comment, i dunno why, the color dont have ump. blue too dark, red too much. blue+red = purple, where is the purple??? lol..i have no control over the color on the sky...the color was taken as it was..PP done on brightness and slightly saturated..curves/tone not adjusted.. but well..it was a sunset..so moving the card upward wasnt the best solution since the brightest part was at the middle..so kinda unable to avoid the dark blue sky on top..the exposure wasnt really enough.. |

QUOTE(ieR @ Oct 12 2009, 02:20 AM) hahahaha.... actually, instead of wedding, go dig around for product shooting, more easy money, coz each picture they wan, RM50 or SG30 local pricing i heard. they ambil 10 = sg300, if they take 100, new CZ coming.... i could have shoot for my bro's company..but well..don wanna bring any gossip around the company..so i kinda rejected him... i prefer wedding..coz i love the atmosphere....and hopefully...my own wedding studio business 1 day.. =p tired of working for other ppl.. |
