7MDH should be 379...

just leave your handphone number to the shop and they will call u back when it is in stock

oh, i just realise u have lcd problem. well, try read/see the lcd under a bright light, see how it differ?. i think A550 has the auto adjust brightness thing on the lcd, where during bright light, it goes brighter, and in the dark it go softer thingie. see does that helps? i am not sure, just guess if it was cause by it

u missunderstood... i say the 550 has better screen then 3xx... the screen is as good as D90 (many review website say is better, but to me, i think they are a little bias coz sony fan?) it is the high resolution 900k pixel lcd like A700 and A900(850)

*edit: u see, because D90 has the high resolution lcd, during thier era, when they swing d90 around to show ppl what they shoot, the photo are so crisp that it give 'non-photographer' the idea nikon's camera are sharp, but they arent that sharp when load to pc. for crazy sharpness, go PRIME lens. ;P

Added on November 19, 2009, 10:06 pmjust get it, if this is ur first camera, u wont even know what's missing from A200... VALUE FOR MONEY. zoom lens, look around, there is a lot people letting go thier lens as 2nd hand if u dont mind, the price of those 2nd hand will justifies it.

the SAL55200 kit lens - around 450-600 depending on wear and tear - recomended for it's IQ (sharpness)
the SAL75300 kit lens - not sure, check around, but not recommended
the KM70210F4 (beercan) - is around 800-1100 depending on wear and tear. - recommended for it's color+contrast+bokeh (double price of 55200)
the SAL70200G - hahahahahahahahaha, u can buy 3 set of A230L hahahahahahahahaha

i remember seeing it at RM379...arghhh...when i ask for 5MDH d guy said it's not available in Malaysia..say what regional exclusiveness thing..

Or get a used A200... Hahaha... Very good budget camera.

I will recommend you to go for used lens instead of getting a brand new one. Like what Ier listed, my suggested preference according to price would be :
1. 55-200 (Around 500)
2. 70-210 (Around 900)
3. 70-300G (Around 2500)

If you not really tight in budget, 70-210 F/4 is the best in terms of $.

ier, ooo sry my bad.....thanks for the explaination, now i faham...
hmmm now getting more and more alpha buyers....

last time when i use A300, i also keep thinking wanna port to d90 or not... now with A550 out, D90 idea is putted aside, and A550 poisoning me...

Yes it is.

Padi spam....

wa so quick ah post poison pics..

arh.. UWAAAAA

how long??200mm?300mm??400mm?? =p

i think its better for u to define ur budget for the lens..and we can suggest u on the brand/model accordingly.

slow slow la, i seldom shoot a pic just for the sake of shooting... want shoot then shoot a good one..

That a whole KLCC sized pile of b@LL$hit, Crumpler MY has the same stock keeping items as Crumpler AU, and I had seen, tested, fitted, and looked at several color options (black, blue, no red - out of stock) arnd 2 - 3 months back. It was still available arnd 1 month back when i got the Industry Disgrace (cam strap) from Crumpler.

Ask the chinese lady, she seems to be able to handle the customers better and knows her Crumplers better. I pre-booked my strap from her, and she called me promptly when it arrived in 3 weeks later, as she promised.

Maybe they ran out of stock and he was trying to push the 7MDH to u??

porkchop: 5MDH = RM259, 6MDH = RM339, 7MDH = RM379. I'd say 6MDH will be right for what you have now, maybe 7MDH if you plan to add more, much more stuff as 7MDH is too big as a sling (for me).

i wrote my name down in the crumpler klcc but seems like 2 mths they no call me...i saw the wait list in the book uber long........so I guess i will get it elsewhere....
thanx poadster, ya tht was the price the guy gave me too...I was hoping for the 5MDH cos its "slimer" more convenient to bring clubbing and parties without knocking ppl and look like a goof....also it could help with practice on "limited" lens available..and teach me better composition style .....

wah...UWA poisen again...
congratulations...

how much bullet need for this??
i wish i can get it soon...
