seriously? i raed some review here that a200 n a300 is highly rated more than 2x0 n 3x0...that's why im lookong for it...

all shops are out of stock??

best advice I can give you is to go to camera shops and test out the cameras for yourself. don't just try out Sony Alphas, try other brands as well, you can try the Canon 1000D, Nikon D3000, Olympus E420/E450 (if out already lah...) etc.. etc... test which one feels good in your hands... don't decide based on what other people say... coz they're not the one using YOUR camera... remember, your camera is just your tool... YOU are the artist... so, choose wisely...

Wish I was in KL... hmm... too far for me... to learn tips and tricks from fellow alpanian, you can always join TT (Teh Tarik/Tech Talk) Sessions... you can learn alot from others... ask Mo0... he always know when's the next TT session... hehehe

QUOTE(Uzumaki NaruTo @ Oct 5 2009, 12:06 PM)
Do you use manual focus or auto focus for it?
*
depends on what type of macro you're taking... for insects/moving objects, I prefer Auto... but for flowers, I prefer manual... coz then you can choose which details you want to keep in focus... biggrin.gif

a lot ppl still misslead with the Ax00 and Ax30 camera. for new users or going to be Alpha owner. let me enlighten you.

A330 is not any 'worst' then A300, infact, the result/output of A330 is Better then A300! (pls dont compare it with A700 and A900)

the diff is just, the practical-ness of A300 has be alter in A330 that it is not that practical anymore sad.gif BUT, more then 50% of the A300 user dont use it's MWB, or the quick local AF. so it doesnt really matter to Alpha developer.) but they do give u a better interface~ for easy learning.

BUT, A330, better shutter, better SSS, better DRO, better ISO will give u a upper hand in picture quality. e'nuf said.

thus the conclusion is, A330 is a good camera for a new owner. but it is not an upgrade for existing A300 user.

That is nice but I too think that the dof is too shallow.  That is the classic error most people make when trying to get bokeh....too much of it.  Just my opinion.

Anyway, I try out the Sony image converter for raw processing and find it very unfriendly and slow.  I prefer Photoshop but not sure if there is any plug in for CS2.  Anyone can help?
*
No plugin for CS2 to edit Sony RAW... only in CS3... you can try Gimp 2.26 with UFRaw Plugin...

Plug in for PP Cs2 tats gonna be Adobe Raw.. (version 3.5 i think)... im using that .. very effective.. n fast.. Im using it together with Adobe Bridge.. very good in managing the photos n compare photos in 100%...the only bad thing is u cant keep those setting in the camera like Vivid, sharpnest + DR ++ etc etc... I believe the Sony image converter does imbedded these info into the raw file.

but The Sony Image Converter r SLOOWWWWWW... hate it. sad.gif
*
u sure the 3.5 version can be open Sony RAW files? tried on 3 pcs already... all cannot open it... can you email me your version? braynumb@gmail.com... wanna try yours...

Er... im using Adobe CS3 actually... but i think if u manage to find the older version of Adobe Raw .. it should able to run on CS2 too. not too sure
*
cannot ler... older versions don't support ARW files... tried it already...

Braynumb: I checked my Adobe Raw is version 4.6.. but the only installer file i hv kept is 4.5... Im running photoshop CS3.. but i have Adobe Bridge as well..Usually I run adobe Raw through Adobe Bridge instead of Photoshop..

I go into my Adobe Bridge. Select all the photos i wanna edit.. Press Ctrl R... it bring me to another windows Adobe Raw where i can edit / batch edit everything without the need to go through Photoshop...

never used adobe bridge before... might try it later... sounds easier... tongue.gif
