Cj, minolta Anti Shake ON (and sigma OS OFF) looks good too.. although not as sharp as OS mode 1 (with minolta AS OFF)

QUOTE(hiansitt @ May 17 2010, 02:21 AM) maybe upgrade to other brand question, after a few attempt to blow the sensor dust out (and not success) with a blower(cheap 1), is the problem lied on the blower or the technique (i hold the camera face down with left hand and press the blower on right hand, not using the technique in first page, as i believe that dust still ther if blow like this right??) Ive just blowed clean my sensor. I just made sure that I try to reduce any chance of introducing new dusts by blowing in a clean room and no wind/fan blowing nearby. |

What are the lens choices for stage performance photoshoot ?
I very often find my 1680Z too short... the SAL135CZ cannot afford la This post has been edited by Banzai_san: May 17 2010, 02:11 PM |

70200G and 135CZ I dream only la... haha
At the moment, my preference (in no particular order) 1- Tamron 70200F2.8 2- Sony SAL100F2.8 Macro The 100F2.8 Macro has AF that is slow (from what I hear la). But is the slow AF during macro only or for non macro too? How slow is the slow AF ? Useable for stage performance ? anyone? any other primes choice?

QUOTE(Kul | Mo0 @ May 17 2010, 02:38 PM) Banzai_san : Get a 70200 first lo. Since you prefer the Tamron then go get it! QUOTE(vikingw2k @ May 17 2010, 02:54 PM) Someone selling his Tammy 70-200mm f2.8. Pretty good for stage performance. Discard the 100mm f2.8. It's pretty useless for stage performance. I like the prime for its weight... very convenient, not heavy. the Sony SAL100F2.8 Macro is 510g whilst the Tamron 70200F2.8 is 1112g I think you guys are right... the Tamron is a much better choice. |

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 This post has been edited by Banzai_san: May 18 2010, 07:09 AM |

That is a myth !!! Added on May 18, 2010, 4:38 pmwhat you can do for sunset photography if do not have ND filters ... is to wait some more until it gets darker... then you can use long exposure... might get a more dramatic shots too... 8^) This post has been edited by Banzai_san: May 18 2010, 04:38 PM |
