1.3k vs 999, not much different but 999 is juz a rrp n it will be lower at street price. so raynox or 30F2.8 plus a VG would be my next collection n not discounting the temptation of A550 !!!

how about the SP60 that does F2.0?

Eh, got! It's the Sony Cybershot WX-1. Exmor-R handheld twilight!! With Sony G zoom lens summore!! Nice clean high ISO and one press pano sweep! Face detection and smile shutter! Wah!!! Almost made me wanna sell of my Alphas and buy the Cybershot.... almost... yup.. it's that good.

Seriously, it's a nice PnS to have.

i heard that the colour of outdoor/daylight shots of the WX-1 is kinda washout
anyone can confirm on that?

Banzai_san: The number of Exmor R camera owners doubled after the TT. Seriously. biggrin.gif

electron: Does this look washed out to you?

The camera doesn't even have a Vivid Creative Style, interestingly...

hmm.. looks ok, but i wonder how would the same shot look like from the alpha
the lack of creative style is a bit baffling though

Guys (esp the WX1 owners),

I am looking for a PnS to complement my Alpha for times when bringing the Alpha is not viable.

Am considering between Sony WX1 vs Panny LX3, which would be a better option in PQ and features? I hear great things of the LX3 (clarity, fast lens, bokeh, etc) but any comparison with WX1??

Price wise Sony WX1 is better at 1200 (+4GB card) while LX3 can reach 1500 (+4GB card).

Thnx for any suggestion.

if retouch the colour of her shoulder so that it is closer to the face and hand, then it might look even more realitstic

haha..i guess probably u saw the orig one b4...i already tried to left some flaws on the forehead..lol..never totally remove everything so that it looked more like covered up by makeups rather than photoshop =p

anyway i guess supposingly her skin shd b quite ok...probably its just these few days she had the prob with acnes..

i never really change the color...the color diff btwn face n shoulder was there in the orig shot probably due to the flash light...just that after adjusted the contrast n brightness the face is a lil bit too fair..hahaha...
*
i see
cos from my opinion, the face a bit too much "pop" cos it much brighter that the shoulder area
the separation from face to background is very pronounced till it looks like the model is holding the head, in front of the body
if can smoothen it, then might more natural
