hmmm, if under warranty, then just whack only la... send in let them clean everything

kevin, u should rephrase.. What's NEX?

Zstan, 18 200 confirmed one, coming with nex-vg10

why cant wait for launch of 18-200? We already got that in a-mount what.. Wat's there to wow about? These superzooms are only good for travel, IQ isnt its strong point.

if i got lenses to rent, of coz rent la... takkan like ppl here, ask left ask right and ask again see what lens to buy... u rent d, then test the lens kao kao until u know u really NEED the lens, then ma buy for yourself la...

edward, so jealous of you.. can rent lenses.. i want to rent also no source to rent.. even if got, will be so pricey

dont think will be much cheaper la.. its still going to be around the same price. it just came out a couple of weeks, doubt it will drop so much, like they said, its normally freebies, which normally worth peanuts to the vendors

having 8Gb could be normal... but probably u will need to top up like less than 20-30 bucks

its still partly hardware for the a850/900's case. coz the pixel density per area is much higher than the conventional 10/12/14 MP sensors in the FF class, the signal to noise ratio is nearly the same as on apsc sensors due to that fact. provided that they made a FF sensor with only 12/14 MPs, then the signal to noise ratio increases dramatically, as each pixel is devoted more to gather light, while still maintaining the same noise level on the sensor.

talking about fotokem, the uncle at the one at Subang Parade's Fotokem, seriously bad service, like tak harap for business also... went there to develop digital prints. 1st and probably last time go there to do my job. and the junior worker there doesnt even know the product details, asked them with Fotokem Priviledge member card how much per print, didnt even give me a correct quotation, when the 'older' guy come, only give proper pricing, to those who didnt know the price then sure kena potong d..

1dmkiv, sounds like machine gun at full burst.. Wah lecturer also so rich ah? That thing costs more than 15k body alone.. @_@
played with d3s with 17-35 2.8 today. Pushed to 12800 iso, ganas sial... 1/4000s f2.8, a dark production room looks like fully lit by room lights.. sweeeeet.. Lol

albert, no it wasnt a dark room. Errr, u hv my fb right? I posted a pic recently there, with the michael jordan cutout under the studio lights. Think its still in my profile's mobile upload pics

that way, ANY situation of light also u can have a solution for it... gary fong's whale-tail aka toilet bowl, stofen, the tau fu fah bowl, bounce cards..

not sure about the noise issue, but overall image quality should drop theoretically, due to image compression - which compression should include the actual image + noise. so i think the noise would be 'fused' together with the actual image data, muddling the output color. that is why by shooting raw, there isnt a choice for you to choose what image size you want, it always records at the sensor's native resolution.

flash tips: when you think u need to increase the brightness of the photo.

Decreasing shutter speed will make the background brighter, the subject will have less effect.
So in another words, shutter speed controls ambient, like what achew said. Aperture controls flash.

Try it out yourself then only u will understand, instead of jz reading, you'll never have hands on.

ieR, yummyyy...

16 only ka? Sup louk sui, pok pok chui.. *likes*

50D having an old sensor d ma, but sensors rarely play a role here. Algorithm also in charge in the sharpening and compression. i think my NeX antidote is kicking in.

waiting for a AVCHD model to come out 1st, see how it goes..

not in a rush, it can come out whenever it is mature enough to come out, i'd rather have a bug free system which does what it needs to do without hiccups rather than a half/nearly complete model coming out, only to need a minor upgrade later on... read: iPhone4

am i not right?

im predicting the coming bodies to be quite promising, seeing the NEX's ISO performance even with an APSC sized sensor. and the coming of videoSLR in the A7xx mock up, it seems that sony is working its way into that field. surely if they only had something similar to what canon and nikon have on their bodies now for video, sony would've launched the product way back then.. but im predicting it will revolutionize the way videoSLR works, the same way Sony revolutionized live-view in its dSLRs compared to current competitors - which back then took sony quite a while before launching its quick live-view, where made many sony users out there to make a big fuss, saying that sony is not paying attention to user needs, not putting effort in the alpha line et cetera. but its impact was made once the QLV came out. i like the way they try to think out of the box, rather than follow the crowd.
