I am looking for a camera, around 2.7k (tight budget~)
any comments for Sony A55? or u would like to recommend any other choice?
For your info, I am totally a newbie in photography, purchasing the camera mainly for trip and vacation, and some occasional shooting like family gathering, not for professional use~

very user friendly. light and small too. good for trips n vacation. biggrin.gif

Budget : RM 3500 include kit lens
Your Location : Kedah

Any specific models in mind? : 60D + 18-55mm IS + 50mm 1.8 , 550D+ 18-55mm IS+ 430EXII, Sony NEX-5 twin lens
Any specific features u want? : easy to carry(not bulky), future proof(as in availability of lens,accessories,etc)

Thanks. Currently considering 60D/NEX-5 but the extra bulk of 60D is kinda turn off, although more lens available and more functions

After visiting some stall/shop at low yatt and sg wang,
I had exclude tx7 out from my choice because it didnt provide significant different with tx9...
But i found that im dilemma among tx5 and tx9, their price gap is only around rm100+,
and both of them got their very own advangtages:=
TX5-shock,dust,temperature, water proof
TX9-Better video capture, 3d shooting mode....

Can some1 explain to me about what does 3d shooting mode do exactly??

Appreciate urs kindness....

i'd pick the TX-5..with this camera i really can bring it everywhere..including having a swim with friends at the pool or beach or go hiking without worrying that it will break during the trip.. biggrin.gif

3D shooting is just some marketing gimmick la..they claim that you can take videos in 3D mode but might need to rely on the glasses or stand away from the screen for a certain distance before you can see the effect. my 2 cents. blush.gif

how does it work? and what's its advantage/disadvantage?
*
in short,

advantages would be,

whatever settings you set on the camera, like changing the shutter speed or white balance, you can see it effects on the EVF. you also can get a very accurate depth of field with it.

disadvantages would be, it does not autogain. meaning, if your settings are not suitable for shooting in a dark room, your EVF might appear dark, unlike the conventional OVF.

i don't think i am making sense to a newbie like you. i'd suggest you read up some articles in google, and come back here to ask specific questions. biggrin.gif
