QUOTE(zergling @ Jan 16 2010, 10:26 PM) nope they aren't. $26,980 is about RM2,850. Not sure about the price in Malaysia though ahhh... my bad, did the wrong conversion alpha stuff isn't cheap in taiwan. Canon and Nikon are cheaper in taiwan if u get grey units, but alpha doesn't have any grey units in taiwan, according to the camera store owners.  |

QUOTE(ReasonsofThanatos @ Jan 17 2010, 10:08 PM) sifus...is cpl filter good on d kitlens?i mean is it worth getting one of that for the kitlens...and how much does 1 usually costs i not sifu, but i wanan answer i only know the cheapest cpl brand octopus selling for like rm80 only, if u go for branded ones like Hoya pro1d or b+w, then it will cost around rm200+ i guess? and depends on your thread size too. i think not really worth it to get cpl lens for filter, better upgrade to better lens first only get a good cpl p/s: cheapo cpl can cause glaring and lower quality image... |

QUOTE(achew @ Jan 19 2010, 03:55 AM) depend on what u need..if u dont need the 7FPS..imo a500 is sufficient.. actually do u think the 921k lcd is necessary? how bout the noise control?http://www.photographybay.com/2009/11/30/s...so-comparisons/ according to the above website, seems like a550 has better noise control. but i not sure whether it is reliable or not... haha |

QUOTE(albnok @ Jan 19 2010, 04:02 AM) lencent: Read the articles, and decide for yourself, with the points given, which is a better buy. thanks for the advice I would go for the A550 because of the better screen and 7 FPS, but some reviews prefer the A500 because it is cheaper (supposedly, they would not pay for the A550, but for the A500, but that is subjective to the packages that are sold in different countries.) http://www.dxomark.com finds that the A550 is cleaner than the A500 (probably with pixel density factored in) and the A550 has in fact, the noise performance of the Canon EOS 7D. (807 points versus 809 points is not much.) still thinking should i let go of my a300 and grab a550/a500 from china since my relative coming back from there... |
