press menu> shooting menu >set picture control > choose any > saturation

remember press right key on navigation instead of 'ok' button

I guess I should ask what does 'saturation' here mean, how does it affect the photo?
What will happen if ue '+' or '-' ?
Thanks a lot all te sifu tongue.gif

sometime is too close to subject, maybe 10cm from the subject ?
sometime focus far subject also got this kind of problem, need to re-focus by re-adjust the zoom...

Probably you're too close to the subject or maybe low light?

low light condition also will cause unable to focus?

Assuming you're using the kit lens, 18-105 the minimum focusing distance is about 0.45cm. 10cm is just too close which is why you cannot focus. All lens have the minimum focusing distance.

Low light will cause the camera to keep hunting, or unable to focus.
*
btw, minimum focus distance is 0.45cm, then 10cm should be able to focus right (10cm > 0.45cm) ?
How if I focus on food which near to lens? I need to bring the food far away ?

Thanks ya smile.gif

i think its quite subjective. a good tripod like gitzo would definitely cost more. why not consider benro's angel tripod but u'll be paying more. sometimes the trouble of a long tripod is that it is hard to fit in the bag. manfrotto also has a new series of cheap travel tripods. but bear in mind max load is at 3kg only.

yup, dunno which one will suitable for traveling with minimal budget tongue.gif

i guess the new manfrotto tripod which cost around 300-400+ is suitable for u? reason being its extra light and easy to carry around however u probably should test it first hand before buying it as i have only been looking at the specs and have not been able to try it out yet
*
Finally get myself a china brand tripod (weifeng) which cost RM145 smile.gif


Added on February 7, 2010, 10:19 amDoes anyone know whether tripod can bring as hand carry in air-plane? or must put as luggage? Thanks

i went to lowyat today, the average price for a brand new D90 is around 3800-3899~ and the package almost same for all, but i m wondering is AP set or not...headache.....

btw i went to YL at pudu plaza, the ppl there quite lcly n the price they quote to me is 4080~ wit a very basic set....

the best offer i get is at Lowyat, the shop near the foto shangri-la~ they give D90 kit set, 4gb, bag, cleaner set and also original nikon D90 tripod~ with 3899~ is this the good offer?
i m looking for a dry box as well~any recommendation for it?  and i planning to get a nikkor 50mm f/1.8 lens, any suggestion, i get the price around 370-420~ icon_question.gif  icon_question.gif  icon_question.gif

You can go to Nikon website and check the shop's name (http://www.nikon.com.my/dealers.php), it is recommended to buy the camera in Nikon dealer list to avoid AP set. I guess Nikon would not allow their dealer to sell AP set (just my opinion) ...
