I am looking at the a230 RM1799 or the A330 RM2199...but many of my friends advised against it...
they ask me to choose from either canon or nikon due to better quality...and cheaper/more variety
of accessories/lenses...

quite like the A230 due to its affordable pricing and design....
*
aiyah then ask ur fren to buy for you lah..
he he u see everyone here have incredibly superb pics kan? (at least the ones they/us showing)
does it takes any certain camera brand to do that?
NO... and it stays that way..

if u prefer a230, and like it in ur grip.. then go for it!

the same like buying a car. if u can afford a vios. and u fell comfortable with it..
then, are u gonna listen to ur frens saying kancil is better because its cheaper and more variety accessories?

rclxub.gif sleep on it dude.. make up ur mind.. there's a lot of reviews in the internet.. XD read 'em

Ahaks, ok then. Hand really itching for a macro lens. By the way where did you go for macro outing?
*
just got my 55mm +10 filter from ahmike last week..
it fits any lens with that thread size.. the SAL1870 or SAL55200

so if the kenko is 55mm then sure it'll fits..

go for macro!

erm..if for a newbie who likes bokeh..issit still better to get flash 1st b4 a 50mm 1.8? coz i too am saving up for that lens currently..
*
im not sure on how ur going to achieve ur bokeh..

but for me, this is an example of my bokeh..
using SAL1780 (FYI its the lens kit) only, and wirelessly trogger flash to the piala2 at the back..
got bokeh also... even not as smooth as the bigger aperture

so i guest (for me) that flash is ur best choice..
lens can come later, together with the skills icon_rolleyes.gif

oo..icic..i always had the impression that larger aperture would produce a more blur and smooth bokeh..thats y im aiming for the 50mm..maybe i need to reconsider hmm.gif
still need more time to play around with my camera to figure out wat i really need..better dun rush n regret later tongue.gif
*
yes, bigger aperture = smoother bokeh
but be in mind that the bokeh rely on the distance of the source of light, to the camera's lens sensor..

better go for trial and error.. and see how it goes..
and not everything can have bokeh, but flash will surely helps in a lot!

I am going to argue for this again.. A100 maybe have pixel mapping, but for sure A200/A300/A350 don have pixel mapping. Dont know about A230/A330/A380 or A500/A550. The hot pixel stay at the same location and never change. While for the A700. I do notice that the hot pixel being removed after some time.

So SONY actually remove some thing from A100 and make a cheaper
model of A200.


erm cannot confirm this because never happens to me.. but waiting for albnok sir..
and if they dont have; is there an alternative way?

yup dont have MS slot.. just CF..

... all because jimlim007 says he got built-in 8gb memory in his alpha

ha ha ha~
he's a n00bie starter here.. but i think he means the camera comes with a 8gb CFcard

er.. but my a350 really got built-in 1Tb memory. stored in the VG, next to the battery compartment (thats y the VG can oni muat2 1 batt LOL)

nope...even i zoom all out still can get sharp pictures...not necessary stand so close....
IMO i often get sharp pics when zoom all out but stand in a quite long distances....
*
yah for me..
better to move then to adjust2 the focal length/zoom..

rather than just standing there i rather be moving a bit to get the right distance/sharper focus w/out re-composing

today death in team building event, photo shooting at bowling centre, suffer a lot of blur images again... aiyo.... how to do arrrr......
*
go out and learn more!
what i mean is..
upon getting a blurred pic, try other settings (iso, aperture, shutter) and try other mode..
change the WB if nessecary..
change the metering mode..

and set the AF mode to the appropriate one..
u dont have to use Wide all the time, the same goes to Spot nor Local...

trial and error is ur best friend!
