sooneror later, u ll need to invest on the dry box, the cheapest 1 would be like rm200++
rm 200+ to keep your rm2k++ equipment wo

i know a few friends where they bought those fish tank with the silicon gel eventually throw away or put aside.

if you use your camera alot, shouldnt be any problem. ( fungus rarely grow)

try clean your lens when u can after use.

just dont throw it aside and leave it for months.

@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  tongue.gif ). 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).  rclxms.gif

Still, the choice is in your hand. Cheers  icon_rolleyes.gif

550D has built in AF motor too isn't it, but one of the main reason why D90 rocks is the interface is much better. Lesser menu interaction required smile.gif.

tell you a story for choosing something u think important, last week I walk into a camera shop to survey tripod prices. then I overheard a couple and a salesman conversation.

lady : "How come I paid so much to buy a dslr which cannot take nice picture? All the picture is so dark! my compact digital camera can snap picture even nicer than this 450D"

salesman : "u sure u know how to use it or not , MISS? this is dslr! u need to know how to adjust the setting and dslr is NOT to GUARANTEE you to get nicer picture! please tell me how you set your dslr before getting angry over nothing"

in fact, D90 or 550D both are good dslr. u should goto the showroom and grab it in your hand and feel it which one u like the most. Function wise all sure got pro and con. No dslr can be perfect. D90 never better in processing image quality than D5000 but both is same quality in fact. Skill is more critical in this matter.

Just D90 is better in term of lens compatibility for cheaper lens.

try to ask the shop in this link. they are selling D90 with 18-105 lens for RM3499 now.

There should be a mirror lock function for cleaning your lens. Not sure if this is applicable to D60 or not but it is on my D90.

If u wanna do self cleaning, u can try get the lens pen. If you not sure how to do it , go to nikon times square for light service.

u need a remote switch to use the bulb mode for long exposure, phottix do offer cheap remote as solution, with it , u can lock the mirror as long as u want in bulb mode settings.

D70!!! Hmmm, but D70 has a smaller LCD, then D70 using CF cards intead of SD (some ppl prefer CF), then don't have black&white, sepia, negative etc etc. Maybe girls won't like it. Worst of all, no self cleaning sensor!! vmad.gif

But on the other hand, D70 is bigger (nice to hold), got AF motor, got top LCD, flash sync 1/500, got grid view (not sure D3000 got or not), use same battery as D90, D300, D300s and D700(longer life span) etc etc.
Consider D70s? Can use battery grip and bigger LCD.

But for a girl (not that I look down on her), perhaps D3000, easy to maintain, easy to carry around hehe. laugh.gif
