Errrmm..... I'm a noob leh. You'll probably have to give me ALL your experience + share share your gear

Arggghhhh!!! Not going to spend another penny more!

(Hmmm.... still haven't got my lens protector, flash diffuser, flash gel...... )

I bought from Sony centre. For the old promotion, I got the SAL18250 + pouch package for RM1700. It comes with the lens cap and the camera comes with the straps.

For the new promotion, there is free printer.

True.

Yup. True enough, it's entirely up to individual. However, they are full timers. For them, yes it's an art but still they need to put food on the table for their family. Client happy, but family not happy... susah la...

Aikes! Was trying out my a550 and noticed that there is a dead pixel on the LCD!!!!!

The funny thing is, it is only present on Live view. On picture playback, the LCD looks perfect.....

that is not dead pixel, i think that is a dust between liveview sensor to mirror.

Could be a dead pixel on the live view camera. Or dust on the Live View camera. It won't affect image taking, so it's up to you on how to deal with it.

It's a blue dot only in live view. No defects in MF check LV or in playback mode.....

Anyway, will ask my vendor tomorrow to see what he says.....
