aiks...last time i 2nd year always busy with engi graphics haha. later 8.45am got basic photography workshop by one of the SOB lecturer at LTBS1, held by geology club, rm3 fee. if i wake up i go lol, but dun expect much lah. probably stuff we all know already anyway

anyone using sigma 70-200 f2.8 APO EX HSM here? comments?

Yaya I saw it in fb and notices in com lab. RM2 for member while RM3 for non-member, ahyo this 1 also wanna charge, nothing is free in Curtin >.<
Anyway, got 1 guy in lakeside apartment with Sigma 18-200 for Canon, I don't know who's the owner, my friend pinjam and use. I tried to use, damn so hard to zoom to 200 (not smooth). IQ, no idea. Sigma 70-200, never touch before, Nikon 70-200, smooth and easy. But with f/2.8, no idea at all. XD

any1 staying near my area?
heard that it is hard to use at 200 mm cos without OS/VR even with the f/2.8
maybe shud wait for the launch of Tamron 70-200 f/2.8 VC n c the price
aiyo, Rm3 oso kedekut meh~ 

I've used 200mm without VR (forgot to turn back on), 1/200 at 200mm some shots still sharp . LOL. But hit rate is lowered compared to with VR almost all would be sharp.

vroommm

hm ya lo...was hoping that at 200 f2.8, no VC also nvm...hehehe. tamron 70-200 2.8 with VC eh, hmm have to wait for it to launch 1st... then wait ppl buy... then wait ppl sell, baru i can consider haha

true2 f5.6 with speedlight is ok

anyway abt the rm3 photography workshop, my frens say quite nice la, got learn some effects n all. shud've woke up earlier today haha

lol, what kind of effects? We rugi lor    But, can ask from your friend what 
Do they teach how to clean sensor? If got, then I really really rugi. Workshop don't teach 1 right? XD
Found dust blower and I'm having hard time right now to clean the dusts inside, did 8 times, still got minor minor dusts. 

wondering.. the cap ayam u use does it suck dust into the blower as well? cap ayam dun have filtering will suck dust inside and blow out again 

Not sure got filtering or not, but it stated dust blower, logically, got right? 

nope.  u try compare with giottos the dust blower will usually suck air in from the back(if the back hole aint blocked) and blow out to the front. imagine a dust blower captures the dust in front of the tip and blow again out.

Haha, no worry, this cap ayam not that ayam, the front valve will close to prevent air entering (got stated, that's why the shape is cone). Air will enter from back too, just not sure got filter or not. Tomorrow I will check more detaily under sunlight.

err bro, did u do mirror lock-up before blowing the dust? if not u are just blowing off dusts on the mirror, not the sensor!

It looks good... why can get it?
