BIGMA vs BIGMA

cjlai, i want ask, if i use Raynox250 on SAL55-200mm lens, the focusing distance will decrease or not?

yes... it will decrease a lot

thanks for the info.

alright, post some over PPed work... although, very minor manipulation is done thou...

Guys, anyone got tripod thats "kaput"/hangkang already? Would like to know what brand and why ...

DIGIeye Professional tripods (professional ? really?) are very cheap ~RM200 only... I tempted but worries me if it is good enough to support DSLR + a 70200 lens.

Also WeiFang Professional tripod and Octopus Professional ... these tripods cost in the range of RM200 only compared to others much much expensive.

Would like to read others view on these tripods... Thanks

most important is that the ballhead can support the weight of your camera and lens. a550+ 55-200 only about 1kg so just keep that in mind.
i would go for the most expensive tripod that i can afford, good tripods will last you a lifetime!

No offense but that doesn't seem like minor manipulation. It's more like very the kaw kaw PP-ed and the eyes seems like gone case already.

Go for WeiFang because it have a tougher built (If you go for budget :3)

However if u can have more budget, I suggest go for Velbon or Manfotto because it was much more durable and tougher to hold your camera + 70 200 lens ;3

Sure look professional after this

with HDR cannot get that result?

hahaha..look pro only..

can take star trails shot tonight!XD

hi can anyone tell me if the below is the latest street price?thanks

Sony A850 = RM6XXX
Sony 20mm F2.8 = RM19xx
Sony Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 24-70mm F2.8 SSM ZA = RM54xx
Sony 50mm F1.4 = RM10xx
Sony 50mm F2.8 Macro = RM14xx
Sony 70-200mm F2.8G SSM = RM54xx
Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* 135mm F1.8 ZA = RM48xx

hahaha no worries, but the make up is REAL the only edit i did is Level the BG(then mask out the model), add the star, the framing and her name+logo...

light ori, skin ori, no touchup of body shape etc

you could say its heavily make up then heavy PP its a shooting for a Hair Show, hence, its a little over make-up

and yea, the eye gone, coz i keep thinking how to show the eye, the only way is to take close up (the distance memang make the eye small and dark )... later more close up

albnok: thanks, thanks to soulfly for his BG stand, and another friend for leasing me 2 more F58, else, i wont get this result too... what makes me proud is, i use A300+kitlens to shoot.
