Damn, spend whole night troubleshooting my rig. Looks like one of my ram stick just kaput.

Haizzz... just when I'm so happy going to KL tomorrow to hunt for a F58.  sad.gif

Anyway, any advice for me before I buy a F58?  rclxm9.gif (minus the poison thank you!  tongue.gif)

Planning to go to Sg. Wang to find one...... lazy to go to Pudu (Studio Zaloon)....  whistling.gif

ieR has given me all the tips to test out the F58....  rclxms.gif

imagine your camera + 0.6 - 0.8 kg more biggrin.gif




Kul | Mo0 : try both with F58 attached biggrin.gif , see any diff

all the best in finding your flash.. im not making you down by imaging + weigh on the flash.. just it felt heavy on the 1st time.. after that u can say it is sturdy and firm. rclxm9.gif

ieR : ya bro.. price matters rite.. hehe.. one more my friend is going A550.. price vs performance wise..

and still ignoring fanboyism yesterday at the reheasal, they seems stupid by comparing brands.. not talking about "how to"

kmarc: still im envy with your A550 + F58 later biggrin.gif

eddybeh : just using the patterned LED lighting at the flash body biggrin.gif not visible through the viewfinder though.. but the camera sees them

albnok: one more set of my bats failed.. 12 sec recycle time at full power.. just noticed my batts are "evergizer" not "energizer MAX".. im using old stuff isit?

Just to ask... Is A380 suitable for beginner? Interested in twin kit lens package(18-55/55-200). Totally beginner here. Searched through quite a lot  of forums and reviews through google. Its bad side i found so far is... about its grip, lack of AE lock button, 2.5fps, less lens supported(comparing canon/nikon). In good side, for me is tilting screen+quick af live view, price(2255 for twin kit lens) and higher resolution(14.2).
I compared it with D3000 and 1000d.
Any A380 user can comment some?? I'm going for entry level, budget 2k+- with kit lens


Added on March 7, 2010, 12:48 amOh ya... another downside is... battery life, compared to older series(a350,300,200)
*
for me a230 330 & 380 is a trendy camera.. just for light user use for themself.. thats why they dont need VG, no need AE and they might find the tilt LCD is very useful laugh.gif . to make it smaller something must be sacrificed. and also rm 2.5k twin kit compared to rm 3k twin kit its 350 older brother last time .. rclxms.gif

if you are serious just go for A550.. icon_rolleyes.gif 1k shot for full charge... high quality with a cheap price..
else just go for D3000 or 1000d you compared

guys, i came across this link a photoblog for those who know chinese, can read, others sorry ya... actually my question is... the photographer didn PP the photos.. but y every photo only center in focus? is it caused by the DOF??
*
i dont think it has DOF... from the pics..

the lens is sharp at center and VERY soft at corners.. biggrin.gif

but still me also dont know how TLR works..




hazril : im just saying according to CIPA test standard

my A350 also can go up to 1.2k -1.5k shot in daylight shutter 1/200 and above..


and just now shooting i can go for 1k shot with remaining 20% batt (mem card full.. haha icon_rolleyes.gif )

@nashakir
So... u recommended me to go for 1000d or d3000 instead of a380? How about a380 twin lens compared with 450d kit?
*
i mean beside looking for a380 weakness look for 1000d and d3000 weakness.. no point i mention the weakness here..
as your fren said a380 grip is not feel good enough.. same with the 1000 and 3000.. (as for me grip for a700 and above, d80 and above, and 50d and above feels good.. but the price.. flex.gif )

my advise.. go to the shop.. try it our yourself... not once.. many2 time.. and dont rush.. icon_rolleyes.gif

but my personal opinion... once you buy.. urge to sell it back to get a better one is there... a380 rm 2.2k.. with a550 2.4-2.6k + (kitlen 100-200) add just a few hundred.. in a few month.. can do it biggrin.gif







albnok : haish.. looks like i need to be careful in buying bats.. wasted 12AA...

nashakir: Evergizer? Is that a typo? Energizer MAX or the normal RM11.90 for 4AA Energizers are good alkalines. Fresh out of the box they give me a 4 second recharge for 1/1 power. Have you used yours?


*
ya typo.. hehe
used for "test" and around 5-10 shot only
or is it fake? alot of fake stuff in miri there..
or ill just discard them..
