STF perhaps not easy to use and not as flexible as other lenses(prime..F4.5 light transmission..heavy..blablabla)...altho i had to admit that the bokeh is really #@$%^$#@!

very itchy to get a 70200(maybe G..maybe tamron)...but after browsing thru some shots..the bokeh doesnt attracts me alot...i think 135 1.8's bokeh looked alot better...

I would say I prefer the Minolta-style bokeh to the Carl Zeiss. Anyway, isn't your work far more deliberate and planned out?

For example here's some from a Minolta 135mm F2.8, a superb compact lens which shouldn't be too expensive:

hehe... thanks my friend... might be joining the 850 clan today man.... excited... 

guys ..

any1 owning tamron 70-200? .. .. how is it if compared to sony 70-300G? I know, most of people will answer something like this, "depends on ur use. Indoor, outdoor, etc" .. I am asking about the color, sharpness, IQ for both of them .. which 1 is worth my money? .. ..

thanks in advance ..

minolta 24-105mm and supports ADI, where do you find those lenses man? i'm ok with the 17-50 size la alb, been using 17-50 all this while oso... so boleh la... but not the sigma 24-70 la... too big la dat wan... and thanks for the warning bout the bad copy at YL, i was tempted to get that one...
with His grace my friend. thank you.

Need xtra help mayb I can help?  quite free these few days...
Nice UWA! Mayb i'll b getting a UWA lens sooner than I thought.. At first im thinking to get the 70200G end of d year for my friend's wedding & UWA b4 next year Europe backpacking trip. But on secondthought.. the G is really expensive n too heavy... so mayb stick with beercan for d moment.. The UWA might be more useful during wedding ceremony... what u guys think?

Bray, how come its taped using masking tape jer? O_o but anyhoo... CONGRATZ... welcome to the team!   

lama2 nanti, da balik sikit modal tu 
congratz bro.. many people upgrade to A700 now..

That words will not hold much longer when the full frame poision already spread through your veins

craaaaap... too much UWA poison at me...

was thinking wether should I proceed with suicidal attemp for the second time lol 

how much is the best offer possible can get for UWA...

if its enough... I`m ready 

u guys just wait till you see thru an FF VF @ 28mm or even better, 17mm...   

yeap... the interface make ease for user to do changes without scrolling the menu a lot...
But I never try a550 yet... so don't know much about it...

yet... Congrats Braynumb    time to search for moar lense ! 

hey fritz, got my A8 edi wei... ... all this time, i resisted and didn't get stuff that i dun need... feels so accomplishing!

waa.... nicee...
ahh 16-105 now selling rm1630 ....duno should I get it or not.....

Braynumb: Congratulations!

clivengu: The A700 and A900 have the same number of buttons on the top. I honestly don't use the top LCD of the A900.

jtcs87: The 'body cap' should be in the box.

Kul | Mo0: Tell me about it! That wideness of the beercan on FF is much appreciated because it can focus within a big table.

MechaHerc: It looks like you can.

Left-most compartment: 55-200mm and 18-70mm with back caps facing each other
Middle compartment: A200 + VG-B30AM + 50mm
Right-most compartment: Ultra-wide angle

The flash will fit on your belt (F42 leather pouch has to be modified at a cobbler.)

No need bring blower lah. There is a side pocket outside (not in picture) that can hold the battery and charger.

Bcoz no need F2.8 to get this
Go Go Go ...
Which one better SAL20mm or Minolta20mm ...

i don't recall any press release where Canon declared it as PRO level.

anyone familiar with Canon's range would already know that as long as it doesn't start with a '1' on the model name, it's semi-pro. you should hang around Canon users more often.

and while it's semi-pro, would you like us to list out how many professionals are using the 7D? even on LYN alone?
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos7d/page30.asp

shock the world with the performance also.

Any recommendation should i get a flash gun first or 50mm prime lens?

any idea whre to get a decent 2nd hand a700??...

hey wanna ask u all...

which one to buy..
the alpha 550 or d90 nikon.....
gonna get one soon...
