42AM = guide number 42m
58AM = guide number 58m

Sony Flash definition: at ISO100, zoom to 105mm
Guide number = Distance x Aperture

Distance = GN / Aperture

For example. When u using aperture F4, at ISO100, and the lens & flash zoom to 105mm (35mm equiv.)
The distance that the light from
-42AM can reach is 42/4 = 10.5m
-58AM is 58/4 = 14.5m

I removed dust on my A200 focusing screen following the instruction from this website. Do at your own risk.

http://www.focusingscreen.com/work/a200en.htm

For porkchop fren's photo, I think maybe it was taken like that because of the focusing mark at that position. He try to put the focusing point at the person eye and snap without recomposing.

albnok : I clean my Focusing screen only. coz i saw dust in when i do shooting. Dust on viewfinder should not appear as it;s not in the focus. So.. I din remove the viewfiender..

sometime when the subject is far enuf., at wide angle no need to focus on the eye. focus on body is ok liao ma.. the dof is enuf to cover whole body

haha.. I study in local u oso no $ to buy cam... not even those small compact camera. Only after working then can play

seem like the CZ color quite saturated.
I felt that if the PIC saturated but underexposed, it;s some how very hard to edit...

i wonder how u have a back ground with so many light? xmas tree??

So it the same tree in this photo.


I spend 2 hour to correct this pic.. to get most of the line straight.. but in the end.. i found out.. the Shop is design is actually a curve.. (the line below Dior should be curve)


accidentally shoot with ISO 4000

Nice one.. Any Creative mode applied ? Sunset? or Standard?

Smaller aperture (big number) for starry flare
Big aperture (small number) for bokeh

Email them this complain and suggestion.
