freddy manson: The 0.45x wide-angle converter I've had, does not really do 0.45x; it does the square root of it. They use 0.45x to make the number sound more impressive. Try using different focal lengths and you'll discover it really is a 0.67x converter. Of course the benefit is that you can remove the narrower angle of view caused by APS-C cameras.

And yes, it is designed to break at the hotshoe (as I've discovered myself!)

clivengu: I've posted about this sometime back. Yes it can be fixed, rather quickly too, since the F42 foot is a common part (notice it looks the same as the F58's foot!)

yup.. that's y now even im using N also. i still prefer to use my alpha when im doing heavy-duty jobs i.e shooting while hiking..
the N just stay in the bag for this kind of safety..
last time it slipped from my hand the hotshoe at the body broke the fall and a fren of mine quickly fixed it (replaced it) as he got a spare hotshoe at home from his dad who works in sony center..

about the FE converter.. i think that it's really funny thinking it can reach 3mm (attached to lens at 18mm)
8mm is quite broad already (180deg) so its kinddainsulting (in a way) that the converter (0.22x) can reach 3mm

anyway.. happy sunday morning! thumbup.gif

Is it for real... I mean the hot shoe on the body can be replaced? Is that applicable for A300 aS well?

Nice... Wonder if we have to pay how much does it cost hmm.gif

Plus will it be covered inside the warranty as well... shakehead.gif

(Cos I have a sad story with the hot shoe to begin with)

dreadlessdream : I believe any part of the camera body can be replace depending on conditions. I had my A300 view finder replaced for free previously as the dust was too stubborn to be removed, says the service engineer. Thus your hotshoe replacement for free (warranty) would depend on the type of story you have?

albnok : Could it be you sold off the old and bought a new one? *Another guess of mine with very low possibility of happening*

albnok: a transition from bad to good. since the trees on the left side dont have leaves and the one on the right which the monkey is jumping to has lots of em.

if could also be seen as an escape of nature from what men has done to it.

albert.. hahaha...okla..dun so dasyatla....i was just pretending...but then intent to rob witout action is not culpable to crime smile.gif... motive plus action baru criminal smile.gif


about the picture... :

from the first subject .. the monkey jumping from what apparently is a dead tree to a green lush tree....for me it would signify leaving for greener pastures and ...

but when framing and arrangement of subject is taken into account, both the trees are not fully displayed...which shows that neither is the full picture....its is because the framing is done in such a way, that the tree on the left APPEARS lusher than the one on the right...for all we know, in the big picture..it is actually the opposite..where the left tree has that region dead where the whole tree is green...and the one on the right has that part alive and the rest dead....

then we can look at the aspect of the other monkey being in the lush area....this brings up the thoughts of repetitive scenarios in life...when we move to greener pastures( eg : migrate , change brand) we will definitely have to share/ try to grap a portion from some one who is already there ... and im guessing that sometimes..having a dead tree to yourself is better than dying over a living one....


one more wierd point is that the monkey one the left tree apprarently has outstreched arms anticipation the first jumping monkey...but the jumping mokey looks as if he fell short of the target and is falling.....also symbolic...but ill just leave my elaboration on that first... smile.gif

im planning (and hoping) to upgrade my camera next month, i need some help deciding. should i get the a550 or a second hand a700?

because i have read quite a few bad reviews about the a550.

or should i scoff-off upgrading my camera and get gears instead?

some might find 135 a lil bit long for portrait when using it on apsc..depend on your shooting style/habbit..both are equally good..
