a VG make u "Look" out standing from others. NOW everybody use DSLR, the one with bigger camera size win.. "I m JOKING tongue.gif"

Try and see whether u like 1680 more or the 16105 more. in the end, u might still get a VG if u really need it.

i think u better get the better one. hehe..
I have the 8GB Kingston 133x. Damn slow on my A200. much better at A700. but I still can feel the lag compare to my 300x card.

The lag only felt when i do review after shooting. I guess it;s partially due to the buffer on the camera make the lag not so obvious when doing burst shoot (For the 1st few pic at least), not sure if u burst until the buffer run out, coz i don do that..

btw.. better buy the san disk at Sg during Fair..
I put up the price compare for SG/MY PC fair HERE

heres a very weird case i found out with my frens....
we both have a 8GB 133x CF from Kingston,transcend and sony....
it means they should have similar writing and reading speed right??
we did with a few small tests while one was the time for the picture to read into the card and enable the user to delete the pictures....
we shot a picture using a200 and press delete button until the picture is allow to be deleted...
kingston need 9 seconds to be deleted while transcend is 3 seconds....
in other tests the kingstons also recorded the slowest among the others...
*
yup.. my Kingston 133x 8GB also take such long time on the A200 for deleting a photo. But on A700 is much faster.
I assume that particular Kingston 133x 8GB might have compatibility issue with A200.
Actually I intended to bundle the 8GB card with my A200 when i sell it, but when i realize such a slow speed.. its not suitable to bundle it else the buyer might think the camera got problem.

I tried to use the 133x 8GB on card reader. it works fine, the speed is rather fast and acceptable.

I have another pc of kINGSTON 133x 4GB, haven;t open the seal. I hope there is no such issue on A200..

Arranged in order of price:
Sigma 20mm F1.8 EX DG Macro, MFD = 20cm, maximum magnification = 1:4x, USD519
Sigma 24mm F1.8 EX DG Macro, MFD = 18cm, maximum magnification = 1:2.7x, USD449
Sigma 30mm F1.4 EX DC, MFD = 40cm, maximum magnification = 1:10.4x, USD439
Sigma 28mm F1.8 EX DG Macro, MFD = 20cm, maximum magnification = 1:2.9x, USD349

My friend got a local-warranty Sigma 30mm F1.4 recently for RM1750 so we can assume a 1 USD = RM4 conversion rate.
*
That Sigma 30mm F1.4 EX come with HSM.. but it's a DC lens..
\I m trying to avoid Non-FF compatible, although I won get FF so soon..

I would go for 28mm
hmm.gif .. Seem like Sigma 28mmF1.8 is better than SONY 28mmF2.8

beware of "crap". somebody just very sensitive to that word.

Most of the CMOS sensor are based at ISO200. Some higher end have ISO50 / ISO100 by the extension function..
which is like they over exposed the pic and bring down the curve.. the effect is: the Pic is less dynamic compare to shoot with ISO200.

Your eye wont be able to notice it the pre-flash, unless u r using a rear curtain.

freedy manson : ya i know.. no need la reply like that to blame people..

of course i read the manual,, and everybody dont gain 100% from what they read..

asking is better do nothing..

Which sentence blame u? It's all in your mind, bro.

DSLRA300 manual page 63, no2 explain on the Manual setting. It's not too hard to understand.
HVLF58AM manual page 43-first 2 sentences, page 45 last sentence and then page 74-76, particular on C04.

yalo.. im getting sick of waiting the A700 replacement.. luckily din wait. i thought A750 coming out soon? FF?

A7x0 can't be a FF.. Many ppl would be very disappointed if tat is a FF. They have to make a model to rival the D300s and 7D. Flagship for APSC.
