I bring in to check for service for that b4... they wan to charge me rm 200++ wtf.. i would have wish they charge for me free... Sony should b more generous to their loyal customer...
My old canon powershot A80, canon change the lcd for me free.. and even replace my friend's older powershot to a newer model completely free even the warranty has pass 2 years!


I loOOvvee the look of these classic camera... lots of physical buttons, iso dial yada yada hahaha! guess im just a bit antitouchscreen and old-styled. love driving manual car too..


Want to ask for advice... Im thinking to sell my A100 + kit lens again.. but not sure how much can I let go...Do you think people will still aiming for the Alpha ancestor? Reason to sell because im planning to get F58...

Want to try more studio shooting... Currently having a F42... so need an extra flash to play around. actually f42 serves me quite well.. (except the recharge time kinda slower) ... Do you guys think is worth for me getting F58 ? what other benefit will i gain from F58 compare to F42.. other than the Speed/power & the Cobra head tilt..

Anyone using windows7 64bit and able to install Sony Pictures Utility?

I have tried download and install the softwares in my newly installed win7 but after the installation.. everytime i restart my pc.. it will start up at WINDOWS SYSTEM RECOVERY... and windows unable to fix the problem and I couldnt start start my windows.

The only way to fix this is to do a system restore to the time b4 the sony picture utility is installed.. At first i Thought is the version provided with my A700 is too old.. but after i try installed the latest version from the sony website.. the problem remains...

I know this not exactly d right thread to ask.. but just like to ask if any1 encounter d same problem? or could be my other software problem?

Woa.. have to reinstall my win7? i have been spending d last 1 week to installed all my design softwares .... dont really wish to reinstall everything....just for the sony utility to work.. anyway i just need the sony picture motion to download my picture into pc base on proper date...

Woaaa... that sounds extremely complicated !! meaning it will be like a completely new Harddrive that let me install new windows7 inside my existing win7. is kinda scary.. im a bit afraid of doing formating n installing things

Aiya..... i just check the software compatibility... look like the Sony Motion Picture doesnt support win7 64bit.. no wonder it mess up my system.....

U are looking for F58? Let me know if u find any good deal... i m planning to get one as well.. mayb buy 2 together can get better price???


like cannot le... im currently downloading the Picture Motion Browser from sony website that support vista 64bit..(though im using win7) hope it works..

Will uncle Chin give good discount if buy more together? He seems to give pretty standard price to everyone

Anyway is it possible to get F58 below Rm 1k?


As far as i Know, Im able to trigger my friend's f42 using my A100 + F42... Not sure about F58... but i think it SHOULD!

oh.. din know bout that... why F42 on A100 can trigger Another off camera F42... but not the F58 leh? If I get a F58 on my A700.. i can trigger few more offcamera F42s right? How bout if i wan switch around... F42 on my A700 to trigger offcamera F58? i guess i better try all these b4 buying hahaa...

oic... i think i must have using the popup flash to trigger two F42 instead and not using the F42 to trigger d other... Is been quite a long time since i can play multiple flashes with my friend (now lari to sg oredi) my mistake

Albnok: nice advertisment.. damn classic la.. hahaa is it the first autofocus camera ?

Really Nice!! your potrait photos always very inspiring! I want to venture into potrait photography too!! Today just bought F58..waiting for it to deliver to me next week ... then i got 2 flashes can do better studio shots. Do you have official website to see other of your work?



True.. Time will show that sony is making its way to be accepted by public...

Auuuu... no wonder saw your wts thread for ur new UWA lens. I wish someone from sony can hear this, as all this while i also have been thinking the same

"the reason being that sony takes too long for an a700 replacement"

is very true... is taking way too long... hope they pay more attention for intermediate models than just focusing on the entry levels.. Jumping from entry level straight to fullframe like A850 might b a big leap for some ppl like me. taking another half a year... im sure many will leave alpha as well when there is nothing they can upgrade after a while.

Anyway always feel free to visit us here from time to time.. and share share what u learn from the other side of the force. I can understand when your business partner is using a different brand is very hard to interact n work around.. cant share lens.. cant share multiple flashes are just among the issue. Good luck in your business





No. you are not jumping as well?

Ah.. funding for 70300G? ... let me know if u find any good deal.. U sold your beercan as well? Today I just Sold my old beloved A100 ...i just have to let it go...

then immediately I bought 2nd hand F58 by adding extra rm 50...Waiting the Cobra to reach my frontdoor next week. hope to do some family/friends potrait this cny when back hometown

Happy Chinese new Year to ALPHA ORANGE! and of course VALENTINE:S DAY TOO!!!


Need help here... just now i was trying to read my F58 Manual book.. but only realise that it is in MANDARIN + KOREAN!!!!

Is there any place i can download the PDF English Manual for F58? The F58 seems so much complicated compare to the F42.. still not really sure how to use..
