QUOTE(bad melatonin @ Apr 26 2010, 09:13 PM) me too prefer d petal. i wonder is there any petal lens hood that fits my kitlens...  Yea...

QUOTE(Darkripper @ Apr 26 2010, 10:21 PM) Why? the petal hood cant rotate? NO.... for kitlens, the only option for petal hood is the screw on hood to the lens thread, hence while focusing, the Front part of the lens will rotate(unlike other lens, such as the AF-S 55-200mm VR which doesnt rotate). This make the hood looks so stupid white u taking photos, it's rotating!! The designated bayonet hood for kit lens by Nikon on the other hand is circular shape, so even it rotates, U won notice it's rotating, get me?? Any pro out there can explain to me is there any obvious diff btw Bayonet hood and Petal Hood other den looks

QUOTE(dvlzplayground @ Apr 26 2010, 10:34 PM) hahahaha i never knew that's the reason for bayonet hood  I think that's not the only reason for bayonet hood, coz my 55-200 comes with bayonet hood, even the front end of the lens does not rotate while focusing.

QUOTE(kalido @ Apr 27 2010, 06:39 PM) hey guys....... gettin a little interested in the world of DSLR now ... Have narrowed down to either Nikon D5000 or Canon 500D but inclining more towards the Nikon. Can someone suggest the best possible price for the D5000 with proly a single 18-55 or 18-55 and 55-200 . And where pls ? Also is it really worth to just stretch it a bit and get the Nikon D90, I can see most of the features are pretty similar. cheers fellas........ Get the D90!!at 3.3k u get the 18-105, u slash out the need of extra 55-200 zoom to accompany the 18-55!! 55-200 cost 890! for that extra u pay for D90, u got built in AF motor n commander body flash, which is indeed very useful!

QUOTE(celciuz @ Apr 27 2010, 09:39 PM) Both same sensors, technically should not have differences  . Unless slightly different noise reduction algorithms on the expeed processor. Sensor I know is the same.... but is the processor exactly the same?
