QUOTE(cjlai @ Nov 16 2009, 04:30 PM) wat kind of ratio r u talking about? magnification for SP90 is oso 1:1 true macro lens which lens needed to get your level of macro lor. QUOTE(Kul | Mo0 @ Nov 16 2009, 04:33 PM) Uzumaki NaruTo : How can compare SP90 with 55200 oh? 1 is prime macro lens 1 is telephoto zoom lens. Totally different league.

QUOTE(albnok @ Nov 17 2009, 12:15 AM) v1rtual: The Tamron 90mm F2.8 Macro is popular because it is a cheaper insect macro lens. On full-frame it is very close to the classic portrait focal length of 85mm. 100mm is a fair bit longer. Also, 100mm on APS-C as a walkaround seems a bit in-between. Thats why, Google it up at amazon and saw the price tag  can get 100mm lens from cjlai and msn202

QUOTE(v1rtual @ Nov 17 2009, 03:10 PM) bro, mind taking a picture of your set up?? wanna see how do you put the styrofoam cup in front? can simply use a coffee styrofoam cup?  Yep simply shove the styrofoam cup infront of my flash. Can tear abit at the mouth part to fit your flash. No worries, I also learned it from a fellow forumer here : mizivincible .

Fellas , got one really noob question. When shooting in LV mode with external flash gun attached are there any way to 'trick' the LV thinking that we're going to use lower shutter speed so that we can view the composition at the LV. So far if indoor shoot try to use LV (shutter speed 1/80 f5.6) In LV is too dark.
If there is a section of this explanation in the manual i am truly sorry. Tried looking about this in both of the manual. But didn't find any (or so i think :\ ).

QUOTE(achew @ Nov 19 2009, 03:26 PM) change to shutter priority use slow shutter..u should be able to see something...thats what i always do..when shooting danbo with flash...99% im shooting in manual flash power + manual exposure on my a300...so i couldnt see anything from my LV...i always go go shutter priority to check my focus n compo..den back to manual to shoot =p Ahaks so thats is the only way to work around it.
