I've a friend with the Sigma 70-300, said the lens is ok for outdoors. But image is damn soft 200mm onwards and when indoor totally unusable at all due to low shutter + no sort of image stabilization. In the end he sold it and went for the 55-200 VR instead.

Yea... this shud b quite common among camera users, there is other cheaper option, which is the silica gel in a sealed box  smile.gif  but silica gel u cant control the humidity inside, but sometimes the condition will b too dry and the rubber parts will get harden n brittle

D3000 is for beginner, budget below 2k.
if you can afford to buy D90 then buy it.. budget D90 = above 3k/ without lens = 2.4k to 2.3k

Well, that's my point of view. CMOS versus CCD, built in motor versus no built in motor. You can use 50mm f/1.8 on 1000D, but not on the D3000 without ability to AF.

no no... w/o checking the price i thought it would be cheap, since it's juz a trigger, shudnt be more expensive than the flash. juz like how remote control is not more expensive than TV tongue.gif then i check the price, memang terkejut haha
in this thread still ok ma d40... go other thread baru malu a bit.. haha
no wonder expensive~~~ how does su800 compare to pocketwizard? dunno much about it, juz read in magazine tongue.gif
it's because he's comparing d3000 to d40. supposedly d40 is better due to bigger pixels n faster flash sync. but then ken rockwell's words are very subjective...1st he say leica sux etc, next thing u know he went out shooting with leica
the reason why D90 is very popular tongue.gif

ken rockwell so rich. what to do
