Guy... Need some advise..

Should upgrade D5000 to D90? ? how much I can sell for D5000 wholeset(without 18-55mm)
*
as i said b4, it does not count as upgrade if frm D5000 to D90 as the performance is almost the same
unless u reli nid the top LCD, built in commander, n dual command dials, u dun get much extra
the body AF motor only allow u to to use 2 cheap lenses only, 50 1.8D n 70-300 non-VR, 35 f2 oso if u thk thats cheap
unless u wan buy old expensive lenses such as 85mm, i dun c the point of switching to D90 jz for the body AF motor


@reveur
nice colors, did u used Vivid?
last pic a bit OOF i thk

Hey guys.

Own a D3000. Currently looking for a lens upgrade.
Options:
1) AF-S 35mm f1.8
2) Tamron 17-50 f2.8

Which wud be a better option? Intend to get either lens for low light / indoor photography and portraits. Also, use for holiday trip this year.

*Note: Current gear = D3000 with kit lens. No Flashgun yet. Battery grip soon.

Or is it wiser for me to get a Nissin or SB600 flash gun first?

Pls advice ya!

*cheers*

P/S: looking for an upgrade to D5000 sometime this year too.. D3000 noise level too significant for me.. Worth to upgrade? (wud prefer D5000 instead of D90 for the swivel LCD and movie recording)
*
its 35mm 1.8G, fixed
i'll say go for SB600 1st
since u not sure which lens u gonna utilise more
get flash 1st is good for long term as it can be used in many situations, n for indoors flash is very crucial

QUOTE(noobie1 @ Apr 22 2010, 11:00 AM)
35mm got 1.4??  shocking.gif
better get sb600
i would prefer upgrade to D90 coz of the CMOS sensor and better noise level movie recording wise, y not u record movie using video cam?? and yet D90 also can record movie and far more better than D5k...lolx..
*
IINM, D90 n D5000 video quality shud be the same
D5000 has its advantage D90 oso, as wat dantwt likes, the swivel lcd
