Go for D90 with the current price drop, it makes the D5000 pricey unless they drop the pricing of D5000 as well.

D90 anytime > D5000

@busyman: No harm buying a body 1st, then later only buy lenses. With your budget RM3k, I will say the same thing as bad melatonin, get D90 body + 50mm f/1.8D 1st.

550D VS D90? Of course D90, reasons, 1, build-in AF motor (extra advantage) and 2, the top LCD (looks cool ). Anyway, don't be fooled by the MegaPixel.

In terms of the price for lenses, Canon or Nikon, both are slightly the same. But bare in mind, Canon's lenses will not come with hoods, you need to buy it (Generel_Nic told me this).

Still, the choice is in your hand. Cheers

want to ask which bag should i buy for my d5000?
will it prevent the lense from getting fungus if i put in a bag?
low in budget..
hehe^^

i dont think new 50mm will cost 300....i only know 2nd hand cost around 300...if u can find 1st hand on 300 please tell me where...

of course D90 is better than D5000,unless u want that tilt lcd screen.
my advise, let assume u have 3k now,then is better to borrow that 400 from ur friend or someone else to buy it now coz we are not sure whether the D90 price drop is untill when...

50mm i bought yesterday at the price of rm400 with filter. don't think there's any place will be as cheap as rm300..
went to fotokem they qoute me rm499 without filter!!! maybe canon will be rm300?

there are no bag that can prevent fungus(as far as i knew),only dry box can...
which bag suitable, then need to see what u going to put in the bag,if just camera,then a small bag then enough
if u need to put laptop and other thing else, than nid bigger bag..

how about putting in a box? really need to buy the dry box?

depends on ppl's preference actaully
unless u wan ultra wide, 17mm n 18mm is wide enuf for standard landscape shots d

happy belated birthday~

both D90 n D5000 r using the similar sensor
they have the same or similar pics output, maybe D5000 with a little better in ISO performance
biggest difference is D90 having built-in AF motor, top LCD screen, bigger body, bigger n higher pixel LCD, dual command dial, availability of ori BG

eh, did i give salah info, my fren?
only their L lenses comes with hood, other normal lenses dun come with it
but Canon users always say the hood r in the price of L lenses d

u nid bag for storage or travelling?

travelling-bringing out to take photo..

if u cant afford or dowan buy drybox
packets of silicon sachets inside the bag is enuf to prevent serious fungus

it's depend actually...so far i still doesn't have dry box...i only keep it in bag,with some silica gel inside...but the best is put in dry box lah...

if travelling then a small bag that can put in ur D5000 then enough le...

oh ok thx alot^^ small pack o need few packets? how long will it last?

depends on condition, most of the time 1 or 2 small packets enuf
u can buy those silicon gels which can be reuse by heating up in microwave oven

seriuosly...all silicon gel can be reuse like that??
i just knew
