DNS give such result la..

i can view edy since 3PM..

macdude says the site is back up - but the DNS servers haven't all gotten updated yet. You may be able to access it without the www. (my case) or with the www. in some other cases.

If you cannot wait, then you could change your hosts file.

How to change your hosts file in Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7:

1) Press Start button + R
2) Type this in: "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc" and press Enter. If any security prompt shows, press Allow (not sure what it is, I can't see it)
3) Right-click on the "hosts" file and click Properties
4) On the window that opens, click on the Security tab
5) Click "Users (###YOURCOMPUTERNAME###\Users)"
6) Click Edit...
7) Click "Users (###YOURCOMPUTERNAME###\Users)"
8) Tick the Full Control box and press OK
9) Press OK again
10) Press Start button + R
11) Type "Notepad" and press Enter
12) Drag the "hosts" file into the Notepad window
13) At the very end of the file, press Enter and add this "202.190.179.20 www.alphanatics.com"
14) Save the file
15) Open a new browser window (not a tab) and try to load the site

P.S. Knowing how to access this hosts file can really help for a lot of other things.

edwardgsk: Since you have both the D90 and the NEX-5 - how would you say video quality is, comparing both? Is there a difference in rolling shutter severity? It does seem a lot less pronounced on the NEX-5 but I haven't seen my colleagues' D90s in a while.

Also, a Nikkor G to E mount adapter is quite worth it!

a bit risky to buy the lense with the age 1 yr plus...
that is the reason lo..
18-200mm is not so expensive so buy the new one is still fine with me..

Added on August 9, 2010, 5:53 pmmy budget is RM900 - RM1000,

actually JB do sell the lense, RM950,
but i am going to KL for travelling, i need to sell my lense and direct purchase another lense in KL in order to continue my travel shooting in KL lo..
