QUOTE(hako @ May 27 2010, 01:21 PM) for a starter buying first flash, f20am, is it worth buying? It depends on your needs actually, if you are really serious about flash photography and got extra bucks, go for F58AM, or maybe F42AM   |

Added on June 2, 2010, 9:48 pm QUOTE(lwliam @ Jun 2 2010, 09:36 PM) mastering, for food, your white balance MUST be correct. easily done with us alphas, coz can custom WB on a white card or tissue at restaurants. then overexpose by 1/3 stop, that should be fine other brands cannot use custom WB ?This post has been edited by gizmo_pony: Jun 2 2010, 09:48 PM |

QUOTE(mastering89 @ Jun 2 2010, 10:16 PM) lwliam : owh, forgot about the custom WB . 1st rule, make sure you are not too hungry ! OR else you'll finish the food in no time without taking any good pictures too hungry that timegizmo_pony :the picture was underexposed and i edited abit. not very good at editing, hilang habis color of the koay teow can give tips to compose in food photography?? are there rules or anything like no fork and spoon or something?  I am no sifu, but I think it's important to control the depth of field make sure not too shallow , and the food must not be too cluttered. You can try frm different angles, rearrange the food, and make sure the lighting is good |

QUOTE(GooD_DaY @ Jun 2 2010, 10:57 PM) But having the fact of sitting in the office is giving me quite a lot of pressure Yes bro William is absolutely correct, don't think too much about your future, it will make u mad  Well I know it's not an easy job as I read about you guys' posts, compo, lighting, everything, yeah it's really a headache, I think because I work as Sony promoter as a part time job while waiting my SPM results attracted me to this expensive interests, and oh yeah I'm 18 this year  while studying you still can learn and play2 with camera, be the best photographer among your friends ! |

QUOTE(8tvt @ Jun 3 2010, 03:43 PM) yup that's make it a best buy.. I finally realize that 210 is not sufficient for my skodeng habit, + CA is quite a problem for old minolta lens, including the beercan.but why need 70-300? i'm targeting on budget 70-300.. coz need more.. maybe tamron/sigma.. but not much discuss about it.. not good?  |

but then as I just paid the fees of my college for my 1st semester, if I quit now it will be wasting my parent's money 
but as now I just found my interest in photography and wanted to be a photographer(wedding as it's a happy event and can make money) I'm really confused now that should I pursue a degree of business and IT, or quit and pursue something like diploma in photography or related events.
