agree with u smile.gif

I give up my baby d40 too because i need the money to upgrades and i missing it so much and it is the best SLR for traveling to me
because of the light weight and the small size to carry around. Looks real good and comfortable on my girlfriend neck.

Selling my 18-55 mm and 85mmf1.8

Any recommendation on what should i buy ?? i m into portrait and event smile.gif

considering 17-50mm 2.8 VC  rolleyes.gif

idea idea pls  rclxub.gif

go for it, if u cant stick to the manual focusing

pls feel free to sell it to me anytime with maybe a rm20 discount smile.gif

its a very cheap lens for an amazing experience smile.gif

why u wanna get so many lens when u cant get the most out of it. tongue.gif
Of course something close to my budget and what i need
somewhere around 24mm to 70mm would be ok

on my target for the time.

AF-D 50 mm f1.4 (portrait event , wedding)
AF-D 50 mm f1.8 ( portrait ,wedding , event )
Tamron 17-50 f2.8 VC ( portrait , lanscape , low light event , wedding , wide angle)
Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 ( portrait, landscape , low light event , wedding) very tight and not suitable for group shoot
Tamron 90 mm f2.8 macro (for macro , portrait only)

i dont need long zooms to shoot birds ok. Portraiture  blush.gif 

budget around rm2000

17-50mm in the top list as it work as a 26mm-78mm on a dx format SLR

pls throw ideas in

No crazy lens talk, everyone knows 70-200 f2.8 VR2 is the best but i cant afford it yet  doh.gif

of coz itz important to state out ur budget n the number of lens... since u r selling both prime n kit lens... n ur target is totally different categories... if u really wanted the lens for wedding/ event, definitely prime lens is not enough for u... so, jus get a zoom lens (17-50mm for my choice) and prime lens ( 50mm f1.8 regarding of ur budget, or mayb f1.4 if u increase ur budget a lil bit)... 90mm is a great lens for portrait but u jus sell ur 85mm, so not really a good choice since u wanna try something new... jus my opinion though... laugh.gif

Guys,anyone has idea on the location of Nikon Service Centre?

Wish to bring my camera there as there's some prob with it =(
*
Nikon (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd
11th Floor, Block A,
Menara PKNS,
No. 17, Jalan Yong Shook Lin,
46050 Petaling Jaya,
Selangor Darul Ehsan.

try google for the map... if u wan it to be fast, better to go to the service centre above.... for times square, they need at least 7 days even for sensor cleaning (i asked it last week)... smile.gif

QUOTE(maxh3h3 @ Jan 5 2010, 09:22 PM)
17-50 mm f2.8 VC with 50mmf.14 in pairs would be great for me rclxms.gif
tamron 90 mm is different from my 85 mm, my nikkor 85 have to be in a distance away for closest shots but 90 mm macro, u could go nearer.

using 85 mm on a dx = 120++ mm if i m not mistaken.

Perfect as a portrait len and as i said before , it only stand alone as a portrait len

Just wanna ask you some idea about the photo shooting session, coz it seems like everybody forgotten the up coming event, and we still need more ideas.

My thought was to make the venue nearer as a number of us don't have transportation to get far away to attend.

ooo.... ya... seems lik no noise edi... for sekinchan, i asked my frenz abt it... he said need to make the period we go thr is full of paddy n not jus 'field' oni.... means be4 harvest... so, need to check on it....

i was thinking of CNY theme oni since 30/01/10 is jus 2 weeks be4 CNY... or mayb we can make the shooting at the abandoned house nearby times square for some "emo n cool" theme... den we can molest all the lens in BTS afte the photo shooting... drool.gif drool.gif jus my suggestion... icon_rolleyes.gif

If I have the budget I would have got it long time already... Still a student no money leh T.T
And I hope can upgrade body cuz 6MP and the noise control is not enough for me... If got money then i think i'll save for body 1st =X

So anyone know around how much will cost me to check up my D40 body and fix the AF and focus ring problem?

checking require RM30 IINM...

I plan to ask in the customer service booth in Time Square Nikon Centre...
