QUOTE(celciuz @ May 5 2010, 11:32 AM) 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. haha lucky haven't buy yet. and today is my birthday. feel free to post in /k/ thread This post has been edited by ongdandy: May 5 2010, 11:36 AM

QUOTE(Kent3888 @ May 5 2010, 06:47 PM) Pls don say that ur english is bad.... swt.... ur command of english is very good ady  all our english oso okok only.... haha  How often the humidifier needs to activate? as in few times an hour, or few times a day? lol.... juz a noob question for me to have a rough idea how it works Thx for explaining... =D Added on May 5, 2010, 7:01 pmYea... this shud b quite common among camera users, there is other cheaper option, which is the silica gel in a sealed box  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 i see.. but kinda exp..

then buy d3000 at the moment. everyone own 1 d90, so what? who cares..  once you have enough money just upgrade to d300s, better function then d90. i m using d3000 right now also.. once i have enough money i upgrade to d300s. right now i m saving money to buy some lens for my d3000.

QUOTE(celciuz @ May 6 2010, 11:21 AM) 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. depend on skill..

QUOTE(dvlzplayground @ May 6 2010, 05:13 PM) 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  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  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  ken rockwell so rich. what to do
