I'm going to KL just for surveying new lens and new laptop...

While waiting for the bus, I forgot that I bring my DSLR bag and just leave it when the bus come coz at that time there was many bag around me..

When I'm at Seremban, I remembered that I didn't take the bag so I've asked my friend to take it. But the bag gone.

So that was my happy ending story for today sad.gif

Go make a police report with ur receipts n warranty card all as prove of ownership. Then go to Sony center n give them a photocopy of the police report. They will block the unit for u if it ever comes in for servicing. That's what I did for my Sony VAIO last time n Sony Center was very cooperative.

Really thanks for your advice bro smile.gif I'll do it ASAP smile.gif

Actually I'm going to KL to find lens.... but I found these :

Wei, A550 is farking hot!

I just use my new A550 to shoot at night using ISO 6400...

I believe most A550 will leave their flash at home while jalan2 tongue.gif

Seriously damn nice smile.gif

But having A550 as first cam that have liveview is nice too.. for past few days I'm using it for 90% of shots..

Also, after I play for a while with this cam, I can say that my previous cam that just lost yesterday (sony a230) is ***** tongue.gif

You'll have a better grip, balance weight, looks so handsome when paired with my new SAL 18-250.

Still don't have much time to play with its HDR and DRO..

Also, its machine gun (7fps) is really nice! So don't terkejut if you saw 1 month using Sony a550 hav 6k shutter count tongue.gif

Now, I need to poison myself to keep this cam coz I bought it after loosing previous cam just to shoot my cousin'2 wedding this saturday. Still needing MBP more than this cam. Err anyone wanna buy this cam if I decide to sell it? tongue.gif

Btw, this cam is really nice so far! No weakspot other than small viewfinder..

Its menu also really nice as I choose it over D90 coz of that actually. (I'm a web designer btw, so a bit cerewet this part tongue.gif)

Need to be familiar with a lot of button now compare to a230 which is so miskin coz dont have as much button as this smile.gif

does 18250 process good quality photo as 16105?

I've owned 16105 before and it is really sharp..


Now I used 18250.. not really sharp as 16105 but you'll appreciate its long distance..




any dude here can do test for CZ1680 vs 16105 vs Tammy 1855 side by side by sharpness and color produced?

Seng_Kiat: Yes the A700 with F58 can trigger off-camera F58s. I've written about this in great detail before.

I think we should submit posts links of previous review/test by us to Amadeo to be included in 1st page..

So people will not asking same question over and over again like the popular cz1680 vs 16105 vs tammy 1755 question smile.gif

Did Sony have 30/35mm 1.8 lens? or any 3rd party that comparable its sharpness to 50mm 1.8?

Hi guys/gals,

Need second opinion.
Should I get a550 + CZ1680 or
a550 + Tammy 1750 f2.8 ?
or a550 + Sigma 1850 f2.8 EX DC Macro HSM ?

of course Tammy, Siggy are cheaper and faster lens... but CZ is ... well a Zeiss ... smile.gif
So, if you, which one would you pick ?
*
go for CZ1680 as you have a550 for low light, don't you ever scare to low light smile.gif

Just finished a 'model shoot' today with my A550.

I noticed that the LCD Viewscreen is WAAAAAAY TOO VIVID. I took a shot of a red dress that was quite loud and I thought I overexposed the image, but looking at the Levels graphs indicated that I didn't.

Caused me to underexpose the pictures before I realized what was happening sad.gif

I realize it could just be the viewscreen of my laptop and such, but I tried looking at the pics on 3 different displays already, and while they look loud. They definetly weren't as overexposed as the display showed it to be.

I'll upload some examples later.

I was thinking the same too..

Sometimes I felt that the images that I took perfect but not...
