empty black/white area? 8mm on aps-c no such black/white area la....

u can use PTGui 8 pro to make a 360 degree panorama

no need la.... tat's on personal preference.... there r some other way to assist u on using MF lens....

even the original setup oso allows u to use MF lenses

I see. what is the other way to assist? Interested to get one since its cheaper

u can add AF chip to the lens, if ovf too small like a350 & a300 can a magnifier to magnify it

anyone can advice me the best uv filter in the market?
tq..

Can simply put AF chip to the lens? It sounds like it'll cost more than modding the focusing screen right?

Uzumaki NaruTo: Manual focus fisheyes are very easy to use on any camera because the depth of field is so deep.

farex: The A380, A450 and A500 are officially sold in Malaysia; however they are not brought in to all shops. If a dealer wants to order the A380/A450/A500 they can but they must take in a bigger quantity.

For the moment the A450 is not being introduced to the Malaysian market.

In Japan, the A850 was not brought in as the Japanese don't buy 'lower' models; they'd go all the way for the A900.

I see. Ahaks suddenly self poisoned for fisheyes Really love some of distortions that it gives to a landscape. If use Dxo can turn the fisheyes image to uwa ones right?

guys wana ask wat brand is good as flashgun for sony alpha A350 other than sony?

sunpak ??nissin??and wat is the model number which is similar to sony f42AM???

ic... but but most sony shop says that its all the a500 here are underwater... huhuhu~

go for sony bro.. worth every penny, dun look to other brand..

But The price seriously is giving me no choice other than NOT to buy... hehehe... maybe next time... btw, have you tested the f3.5 on your CZ start from 16 till what mm? and f4 and f4.5 from where till where? interested to know also.

your best bet would always be Sony...

wanna ask where do I get the battery grip for A550 .... whats the best price I can get now? >.<

farex: The A380 is legitimately being sold in Sony Style outlets (KLCC, Times Square, The Curve).

Sony Style = owned by Sony
Sony Center = owned by dealer

Then, there are dealers (Tarita, Bintang Maju, Boeing) who carry original Sony stock.

Finally, there are third-party dealers who buy stock from local dealers, but do not talk to Sony directly (smaller shops e.g. Leos Trading, YL Camera).

Ultimately, the shops that have the A500 can order it through Sony. They just need to order a lot. You can verify that it is local, by looking on the box - there should be a white label with black bold text somewhere on the box, which identifies which dealer Sony originally sold the stock to. If you see some dealer you've never seen in Malaysia, and there's no Malaysian warranty card, then you have reason to believe it could be from a non-Malaysian dealer.

It is a very common thing for shops to claim another shop is selling fakes. "Huh how come so cheap? Sure underwater set!" Actually they can sell for cheap because they sell a lot of units and get 'kickbacks'. You sell XX amount of units, you get a free flash or other accessories.

Only way to find out is to go to the shop and inspect the goods!

thanks for the explanation, yes I know about the a380... i was talking about the a500. i been looking at this model from sony before i bought my a550...

The sony A500 is officially sold by Sony Malaysia. They made a special launching promotion for the A500 + survival kit during the last PC fair at KLCC.

I saw in the previous page that someone posted some photos on Bali. How I miss that place! I was there for my honeymoon last November 2009. Share 1 photo with you guys on my trip to Bali:

Im trying to solve the colour white balance difference when using flashgun in a tungsten environment hall... What is the best way to make a colour gel for my F42? Can any1 show me how to make theirs? stick the yellow or orange transparent paper infront of the flash?

no no, not coz of the lens, its caused when pp that time when readjust perspective, will involved cropping out the edges

Yeap, put the color gel in front of the flash. Albnok made some pretty cool color gel complete with holder some time ago. Go ask him!
