QUOTE(vikingw2k @ May 8 2010, 03:26 PM) Alright, few of them just won themselves few days of vacation. There's no need to congratulate a new thread.  pls make sure others in the Nikon threads, Panasonic Leica, Micro 4/3 threads and other such threads also get the same treatment. Pls dont give anyone the slack. Thank you for your kind consideration This post has been edited by Banzai_san: May 8 2010, 03:57 PM |

QUOTE(Kul | Mo0 @ May 9 2010, 05:19 PM) The only thing I don't like about the CZ1680 is that, I don't know how to say it in the proper terms but when you tilt it toward the ground, the lens would just zoom out without realising. my buddy calls that... "pandai steam sendiri" From what I heard la, the early productions 1680Z are having that problem... but after lots of complaints, now in the newer ones (mine included)... do not have that "self steaming" problem. My buddy's 1680Z has that problem. I dont have that problem on my 1680Z ... This post has been edited by Banzai_san: May 9 2010, 05:37 PM |

I dont think I will trade my 1680Z for Tamron 17-50mm F2.4. But of course different people have different requirements and/or opinion.

Here's my noob photo shot during the "Sabah Fest - Cultural galore" outing with KKinabalu Alphanatics Murut girls.  I must have blinded her with my direct flash fill (the HVL F58AM)  Traditional musical instrument "Gulingtangan" played by a Murut lady  This post has been edited by Banzai_san: May 9 2010, 06:30 PM |

Hazril is one nice guy la... I believe those who have met him can vouch for that...
On a different topic... hopefully betul la rumour that some kind of announcement from Sony will be made on the 11th May. Thats 2 more days and counting ... p/s: but dont hold me to that if no announcement .. This post has been edited by Banzai_san: May 9 2010, 07:45 PM |

QUOTE(destfull @ May 9 2010, 07:49 PM) as for me, I think output produced by SAL 16105 is better than CZ1680.. I do think that SAL16105 produce more vibrant color... but at that time I paired it with Sony a230.. I think its the diff of sensor... My CZ1680 is paired with Sony a550.. CZ has more visible vignetting which annoys me compare to 16105.. Sharpness? I think not a lot diff even when I zoom it 100% Now I'm with no gear.. If I want to buy lens, I'll go for 16105 rather than CZ1680.. 1750 is not in list as it too short.. I would rather spend it on prime (30mm and 50mm).. Now still waiting for a7xx while funding for it.. Interesting... I have not notice my 1680Z vignetting ...  |

QUOTE(Soony @ May 9 2010, 07:59 PM) I think what u ve experience is either having a not-slim filter or u're shooting at 16mm @F3.5 .. Other than that, no possible vignette as far as I'm concern.. haha.. the not slim filter problem makes sense for the vignetting problem. ie Its a filter problem, not the 1680Z per se. I think Ive snap many shots at 16mm @F3.5 but have not notice any vignetting. Im using Sony's Zeiss MC Protector btw. |

QUOTE(Soony @ May 9 2010, 08:07 PM) It's not really that visible but if u notice closely there are slight vignette.. As u stop down your aperture, the vignette tends to disappear.. Nice choice of a filter for your lens =D filter bought the same time (but separately) as my A550 "package" at Zaloon. Got poison by Uncle Chin |
