Yes the 5-series will serve you well with its better high ISO performance. noted.. i need to learn timing and situation awareness more.. currently im inclining to a850 for FF since rumor going on that s700s in an aps-c. anyway, went to iCity last night. more -> http://www.flickr.com/photos/e-jump/sets/72157623353162781/ Sigma 28F1.8 C&C are most welcomed 1st landscape attempt This post has been edited by e-jump: Feb 21 2010, 05:14 PM

A7xx APS-C, it will not pass the rm5k mark. if 6 month later, it might drop to 4k+ margin. and it wont be FF no matter how. i guess u are talking bout A9xx.... and, it might be around A900 first released price. but that is still about a whole year of wait. but u sure cursing that, A850/900 wont have the A7xx functions when the A7xx release... stick a while longer to see what A7xx has to offer. Panasweep anyone? obviously im referring to a8x0/9x0 of a700s

This is what the Sigma 28mm F1.8 is made for - closeups that look real. (Of course, stopping down would've helped.) Thanks for your opinion.. i sometimes knocked her down for getting too close lol.. thats 1:2.9 for me >_< trying few stop down QUOTE(hkhk @ Feb 23 2010, 12:53 AM) nice one.. at F1.8 there is no obvious purple fringe? tempted to get this... im not sure about purple fringe thingie, maybe because its dark.. i will try on broad daylight.. or pass to albnok for testing since he knows what needs to be tested btw F8, iso800, 1/200, HSS strobing F5.6, iso400, 1/200, HSS strobing click for larger

F58 produces 58GN particles as 42 to only 42GN particles. So your subject will exposed to more radiation on F58 over F42 LOL j/k but yeah, the F58 produce higher flash power over F42 The numbering is actually the GN(?) rating of flash power

I never get a chance on trying such shots Anyway, juz 2 questions, at the right side, there's a ray of red light...where does it come from? and, got star filter? LOL, you can just stand in the middle of overhead bridge to try A1 : i think its from a bus or lorry roof light indicator thingie A2 : I just use normal UV filter. Basically if you stop down the Aperture to F1x and below, you'll began to get the star effect anyway, i think i messed up the WB.. I'm using autoWB, and manual focus to infinity

(: eh, 4-5secs enough? so the one that exceeds 15secs are only for buildings/city lightings? ok. next time i'll try shorter shutter period. these shots i just randomly use BULB and manual shutter release. I should get a shutter remote trigger as well LOL
