yupe yupe, he told me the in charge person just smile at him when he sent it for warranty XD
extra info, he wrote the warranty card 1 month before the "warranty end". 

golbeza: 1st, you still love your kitty lens? If yes, then add 1 more lens, which is 55-200mm, about RM900.
If you don't love your kitty anymore, then go for 18-105mm, about RM1.2k.

thx ezra, no nid me explain long long anymore   

yes, BG makes big difference, important for comfortable n steady grip
but it decreases the portability la if thats wat u wan

@shadowshine
not really, cos the these 3rd party BG for Nikon entry levels cam very plastic n light built
1 reason is there's no complicated circuit boards inside the BG
even with 2 batteries in the BG, attaching a flash n 18-55 hard to balance d
heavier lenses will be worse
now with my sb900 n Sigma 50mm attached, i have hard time keeping the cam straight, it keep pointing down 

question is, IF there is ori grip for Nikon entry level bodies
i tried holding D90 with BG n D300 with BG, the BG significantly increased the weight
can balance up to a point la, u cant expect any BG to balance the cam with 70-200 attached rite?

Phottix is definitely good enuf
rm150? r u sure u din mistaken the BG for D40/D60/D3000?
cos D5000 BG has wire to attach to body in order for vertical shooting
if im not mistaken shud be rm200+
u can still use the BG with 1 battery, but its worth to get an extra battery too

Yup.. surveyed both.. Tamron VC and non-VC, and 35mm.

Price different is about 700-800 bucks.
Yea. 35 mm is abit too wide.. Many ppl would suggest 50mm minimum as capture range of 35mm usually makes the subject/model feel uneasy..

Hmmm.. then i guess have to go for 17-50mm..

Tun, when u gonna get it ?
