QUOTE(lost123 @ Apr 9 2010, 05:43 PM) guys i need ur opinion again.. this hunt for d90 is pretty interesting.. actually my dad want to buy the dslr, not me, but since he wont use it half the time, so i will end up using it most of the time.. ok so anyway, we were more or less set to get the d90 already, but then my dad held it, and sed it was really heavy, especially with the 18-105 lens. and this might be a problem coz my dad travels, and he wants to bring this with him, but the weight would be a problem. so the other option is the d5000, which is just a little cheaper considering the cheaper 18-55 lense.. however, for me personally would go for the d90, but since my dad is the one paying, i shud at least recommend him sumthin that better suits him.. but problem with d5000 is that it doesnt have the internal motor, dat means certain lenses cannot AF which also kinda sucks, and the lenses with AF are more expensive.. so i juz need ur opinion, which one should be a better option? if the d90 came with 18-55 we wouldnt have this problem. 18-105 is much better than 18-55 for travelling... 18-200 even better but also weight more... i think at 55mm is hard to zoom into objects on the opposite side of a river or road.

QUOTE(General_Nic @ Apr 14 2010, 09:23 PM) shooting in RAW doesnt give u sharper image, nor shooting in JPEG gives u softer image purpose of RAW is to allow more room for fixing after shooting, in the end u gonna convert it to JPEG too Could the camera process the JPEG soft?

QUOTE(General_Nic @ Apr 14 2010, 09:44 PM) hmm, not sure wat to say JPEG has less details than RAW, but shudn cause it to soften by a big margin maybe as the review say, its the compression rate of D90 so far im happy at the sharpness of my D5000 JPEGs, dunno same with D90 JPEGs or not maybe its up to ppl's liking I have happy with all my Nikons when I shoot them RAW. QUOTE(selinix @ Apr 14 2010, 10:10 PM) I felt disappointed after looking at the comparison with Canon 450D ..  No need to feel that, just shoot in RAW.

Nikon got superb high ISO to compensate shakes... for short range... no VR no problem.

^ http://www.bythom.com/Nikkor-35mm-D-lensreview.htm "The 35mm f/2 just doesn't make the grade against the f/1.8 DX lens. First, it's more expensive and slightly slower. It has slightly more vignetting and the corner performance isn't up to that of the DX lens. It is also not AF-S, so won't autofocus on the recent low-end consumer DSLRs. That's a lot of minuses. In terms of pluses: it works on FX bodies and has a very nice manual focus ability, including DOF markings. On balance, a DX user should choose the DX lens. If you have both DX and FX bodies, the f/2D starts to make some sense, especially if you're stopping down some."

We need to compare the overall of lenses, f1.8 version still pretty sharp even for Ken and Thom standard. Just want to share that 35mm 1.8 is a very good consumer lens.

QUOTE(KTCY @ Apr 29 2010, 07:28 AM) Noisy but lovely pic  Not really. Sometime hotel lighting especially when I go fine dining, f1.4 might not enuff too and too shallow if use at f1.4 Lovely  If compare with f2 version, it sucks. To be honest, 50mm f/1.8 also better than this lens  Have you ever play the f2 version before ? It deserve a better one. I think most ppl reading here are consumers.

The are a few versions of 50mm... beside the point, though sharpness is very important, there are many other aspects of a good lens.
