nabelon : Have you consider to invest in a compact camera such as the WX1, TX1, TX7? They are good pocket camera with excellent low light shooting condition.

oh hay

have u compare side to side , i have experience with this 2 lens on my a300 , 1855sam AF is slowing than body AF system ...

that would be a viable alternative as well...i still love my alpha..but how does all these compacts fare against the micro four third offerings ?

look as if it's cropped at the bottom..

Woweh..How are you guys?I'm still using my A200 to shot some fun shots.Will be uploading the pic as soonest I found my 2 gig memory card

I seldom use my flash. I have to say that A550 (and her variants) have great capability shooting under low light. Hence, I can leave my cobra behind
Consider upgrading to A5x0 la nabel

i think i only mention about 1855 vs 1870 and not comparing with body's AF =D

well, it seems that letting go of the alpha is not a good idea, considering the replacement would be a four thirds system.

hmm, probably i could get a tammy + the newer alphas ?

Tamron lenses are awesome.I own one 90mm macro lens.very fast .

dinraxxx : Tamron SP90 where got fast? Try using SSM/HSM lenses than you'll know what's fast. (:

HSM dun say la.Expensive bro.I prefer cheap ones.Well I dunno latest price for lenses since I'm sticking to D90 and D300s now.

but there are a lot of reviews tammy 10-24 soft at all apertures.. slow focusing...

dinraxxx : Aiyo so easy. Nikkor lenses mostly SWM wan ma. So you'll experience some nice AF speeds. (:

IINM not all SWM is running on Ring Motor..some SWM is on micro-motor...
same goes to canon USM....the USM is much faster than USM
USMis really *@!#U@*(&@# fast! and accurate

well I still love Alpha 200 coz It has an easy to use settings.And also this is the only DSLR that has a good 90mm macro.

dinraxxx : Why only DSLR? That lens has mounts for Canon and Nikon too ma. :S

wait a little longer, the EVIL system will be out soon... it will has the IQ close to DSLR... better clarity to M4/3rd due to larger sensor. and FullHD video with AF!, u can just snap the video, go back and cut out the scene u like since fullHD is 1920x1080, that is big resolution. u can grab a mount to use Amount lens..

but i am praying, at least, give a flash hotshoe!~~~


and WX1 or similiar model are great alternative if u are not those bokeh freaks or high clean iso freaks. they do very well as a compact camera.


m4/3rd lens arent any cheap iether. and limited selections.


lugia (and someone i lazy read back):
when comparing 1855 and 1870, definately the AF speed are taken in account, so is SAM vs body motor. i take it the A300 AI/chip arent optimise for lens motor... coz it works really slow with 70200G too (played with friend's A200+70200G, slow also) but i believe, (have no tested, but it seem the A330 with SAM are pretty fast on my hand) SAM is generation dependent, anything after A900 would go faster? (since 70200G is really fast on A900)

the SAM motor, main reason is being real QUIET. that helps a lot in movie recordings. (SAM are prepare for the future video bodies...)
some of my friend tested, it seem on A550, AF-C works marvelously better with SAM lens. no comment.

and lugia.... MF LV check is not excately LV i guess(i dont see it taht way, the purpose of it wasnt LV at all)... the new model they call it MFcheck (i think, they removed the letter LV, LOL)... instead knowing there is a LV but u have to MF, might as well ignore it and pretend it doesnt exist LOL (joking)... but i agree with ur statement, A450 has LV, but not QLV. (btw, the fast AF LV is called QLV, quick live view)
