albnok : I did not bother to adjust the WB as I shot. Left the WB to auto all the way. Didn't really bother to adjust is PP either. Guess the lights downstairs is not as orange as the ones upstairs.

vikingw2k : And so?

Dudeeeeeeee! You're getting better with the lighting! Nice one! SUPER HAWT!

yea... going there early n hv to leave early as well....

wen with what7ver & a fren.... met iGeorge & kkzone in the fair

Cjlai: Tested out the Samyang 85mm f1.4. Seriously need a AF confirm chip IMHO... But love the bokeh and pics!

Braynumb : "MWTS? Sony a700/Tamron 17-50mm/Sony DT 55-200mm/Minolta 50mm f1.7/Prinzflex M42 28mm. All for RM4.8K. Interested? PM me... SOLD!!!!" So fast? OMg. Then now no camera? And Hummer you're getting? OMG.

e-jump: Nice! Slightly cooler would do it (usually your skintones are cooler yes?)

cjlai: Ah, missed wha7ever also! I did see iGeorge and kkzone on the other side of the fence though.

good lens but no AF. suitable for shooting that require you to AF.

anyway i go test test the Alpha A230 yesterday, aiyoh i really disliked it - the mode knob so small and cacat wan. menu button cacat, dial / shutter button area cacat. grip so small that my small hands also don't like it.

I mean I've used A200, A300 and A350 and thought their buttons placements were well thought of, A230 feels like buttons placements went less optimal.

Dude... hehehe... it's a JOKE... still using a700, still getting the G and CZ... and now looking for 3 more cheap flashes for lighting solutions... will let you know personally if I DO decide to Jump or Retire...

Scare me only la. LOL. Will hope to see more news regarding your G and CZ.

uh... not for this year la... G coming next year. CZ on the year after that and so on... one item per year. But will see financial for next year la... if it's good, maybe get all 3 (a850+G+CZ) straight away...

The A230/A330/A380 have no fans amongst those who have used the A200/A300/A350. It's too small to hold with comfort for the average guy. May appeal to some girls who like things small and light maybe..

urrgghh, yeah.

small and light - yes. i have small hands but i find the buttons placed on an almost 90 degree flat plane above the usual button area was a little difficult. for example the AV button and MENU button.

the mode dial, it's unlike other Alphas. it's like a 2-3mm thickness plastic that can only be dialled by thumb, and not a comfortable one at that. even the front shutter / dial feels so cacat.

guys~ if i wanna send my alpha item to Sony Service Centre, which is the fastest? The Curve or MV?

MV..its sony service headquarter there....

goldfries: Do check out the A550, the current darling of the consumer market. Its MF Check LV mode uses the main sensor for Live View which makes using manual focus lenses a breeze. The A230 was so May 2009!

If you will, the A230 is more towards the Canon 1000D end, while the A550 is more towards the Canon 550D end.

Gouki: Northpoint Midvalley is where the actual repair happens.

the curve also not bad...i got mine back in 3 days..

oh I am aware of the A550. It's nice, my friend's using it (upgraded from A200) and i thought the button layout are good there.

last time i would recommend people A200 cos it's a good camera, combined with twin kit + free workshop, it's a bargain.

now with A230........... it's a bit on the side.

I totally agree bro. I still love my a200 even tho its super under utilized. On the a230, the grip is the worst part. For those who have fat fingers like me, u could forget a230 and get a550 instead. Better grip n hold. a200 FTW! lol~
