Hi! Just got myself a 2nd hand D60 and hoping to start taking decent pix soon. Now i am reading up on most tips and trick but i am still getting confused badly with the Apperture and Shutter thingy.

I mean, i get the general idea of how it works but how to make it work for me is another matter altogether..

New or 2nd hand?

I was searching for D40 too but... Lets just say its near impossible to find a new one now.

Well, I did notice that ppl are letting it go in garage sales for around 1k. give or take a few ringgit.
D60 goes for around 1.5k. depending on SC and D3000 goes around 1.8k.

i have a question.

is it possible to send a camera in for a service before the warranty runs out
and
what do they service/do to the camera during the service?

Yap. I got my set for 1.3k. 9 mth old. Sounds good deal yes?

The SC is at 17k and no bag.

But its still an ok deal for me.

Hey guys, I have an urgent question to ask

For D60 kit lens, if we were to get a Lens Hood for it

What size should i get?

55mm lens hood
or
52mm lens hood?

I saw that my lens filter is 52mm, hence i am confused now.

Thanks!

Argh! I dont get it.

I mean, I get the idea that u need smaller lens filter to fit inside the 55mm

But when buying the stuff, shouldnt a 55mm lens filter automatically should fit a 55mm lens?

Nikon D60 with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 VR lens

thats 55mm. No?

>.<

Urgh... the front lens cap is lost. >.<
When the buyer sold it to me, the cap was lost. he got a generic one to replace.

So a 55mm lens hood is for what kind of lens?

Crap, now i need to cancel Dealextreme order. Hopefully they havent sent yet.

Thanks ! !


Edit:

On another note. Anyone want a cheap 55mm Lens Hood + Cover? kekek

Ur 70-300. AF-S one ah? How much? Lai lai pm. I am curious

btw, I am thinking how much would a general use flash cost? and which type is good?

I can't make sense of the Flash's coding. I assume all the numbers and alphabet is a description of how good a flash is.

refering to AF motor

What is the different between AF-S and the others er codes?

So in essence, AF lens and ends in whatever code has a build in motor?

Ah.... Thanks


Btw, I just got a Winer Armor Series A-S 1551 backpack in lowyat and is wondering now any of you guys used the same bag and how much did you get it for?

Its this one

Er... Whats the normal price for armor series?

Ah... Coz funny thing happened while I purchased that bag.

But thats a long story.

Anyway, I got that Winer Armor for RM215.

Is it cheap?

Ah well, Coz i was thinking either the fellow is a very very good actor or the price is that cheap.

Anyway, I am planning to get a tripod, any recommendations?

BtW do you guyz have any picture taking plans for Earthhour happening this 27 March?

Crumpler! 5MD should be just nice. But since its for a lady, might as well get 6MD. Coz a lady brings lots of stuff when they go out. Might as well all chuck it into one bag.

That is a very cheap set but online buying full kit set...

Erm... How to check product before buying?

Actually, what i meant was. How to check and confirm that htere is no defect before buying?
