the Kenko was borrowed from another Alpharian during a macro outing.
I'm not investing in any macro gears.........yet

ooo... ok... could it do AF?

guys,

24-70F2.8 vs 85F1.4, which 1 do you think is a better buy?

p.s: i've already got a 16-80F3.5 though...

finejave : damn rich right you? LOL. Get 135f1.8 la. You already got 50f1.4 ma. (:

2470 is not that suitable for apsc..the range isnt very favorable..not wide..and yet no long..and given u already have 1680..85 1.4 is more suitable for u...

achew: btw, is 85f1.4 a full-frame lens?

kul | moo: no la...just have the thought only so far...not poison yet...but trying to poison myself to sell off to get 1...135mm...tried albnok 1, not really comfortable with the range la...50mm too close, 135mm too far...so mid is 85mm lor...

Nigel Barker video tutorials! Some of the tips are real gems if you watch them.

finejava: For APS-C, the Carl Zeiss 85mm F1.4 to get a nice midrange. 135mm will be a bit too long on APS-C. Yes, the Zeiss 85mm is FF (of all the Zeiss lenses, only the 16-80mm is APS-C.)

anyone got 85mm? wanna test test a bit...

urghh talking about FF

just tried 850 at pcfair sony booth...

what a is... they put 50mm 1.8 attached to it..

jeez... how am I gonna feel the full power of full frame like that lol...

then also molest a550 with 16-105 <-- the lens and body kinda poisonous for me though..

oh btw..
a550+bateri grip+18-250+tripod+memori card+alpha bag(which kolmoo buying) for 4.7k

good deals?

my couz bought the A550+SAL1680Z for RM4700 at Bintang Maju... might want to check that out...

sony in pcfair
they put WX-1 photo, and said it's TX-1.
they labelled SAL18250, but the photo is SAL1680Z =.=
then i went to klcc, wanted to try the a850 battery grip, one of the salesman told me the price for vg90 is not announced yet, then give me a vg50 =.=
i was like, it's been there for more than a year already.

Ksano : Buy that package la! Then sell me that bag. =p

anyone interested in taking over my sigma 10-20 F4-5.6?

those who love to shoot water droplets..maybe u can take alook at this vid n explore the possibilities =p

albnok : The Minolta 80-200 f2.8, can it's speed match up to Sony's white gun's AF speed?

Thanks albnok ..

ermmmm... actually i don't know, set to MF throughout the entire outing

Its the one from Time Wrap right? Saw it in strobists if im not wrong. Really had fun playing with it. Will continue to do it once i acquired a decent tripod. Right now have to stop first since its really a 'wet' experience

i think it'd probably saves u alot shutter counts n time if u have some sort like a infrared sensor..sometimes trail n error whole day without getting a desire shot could be frustrating.....i always get my floor flooded for nothing..lol

Yeah, last attempt takes about a hour plus and theres a few interesting one. but once you go it, its really nice.
