very nice series there~ thumbup.gif

however the air cond remote in number 6 is very very distracting.

Thanks. hahaha Thats her hp.. somemore I highlight it a bit.. actually i can choose to easily clone it away.. but on second thought maybe It could make a statement or something, since d bride is smsing her groom all the while that morning. haha.. mayb is a lame idea.

wow the a55 cAF definitely look promising le....... how many wanna buy n get tt soon?? clivengu nice shots....looks tight place??  i like the backlit bride dress shot.....but erm the colour is it whitebalance off or soemthing?? on my comp seems weird...maybe go home n see better
*
Technically the whitebalance totally out... because the original warm colour balance doesnt give the mood.. so instead i give it a dramatic shift to icy cold. tongue.gif just try out different colour.

New to this thread here, any info I can dig on Sony NEX series? NEX3 and NEX5 please?

Looking to grab one of it, I'm still comparing the NEX to typical alpha series like the a550.

The only reason to get NEX, would be the compact size factor... If you're really into photography/Image qualities, go for the Alpha DSLR's

NEX5 is RM2699, standard package, a550 is RM2799 standard package... NEX5 can shoot video somemore...

I'm still considering, why did Sony even release NEX series when it's cheaper than it's own a550, smaller & lighter than a550, has the same censor as the a550, can use a550 lenses, and can shoot 1080p video when a550 cannot!? This is actually why I'm here.

Don't worry I'm currently googling out for even more info as well.

EDIT: Yah NEX-5 battery tak tahan lah!!!!!! cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

Hmm... I am actually just a newbie like you planning to buy NEX-3 in few weeks time lol.. Wait for the other sifus to answer you then..

I think you need a converter to use a550 lens..

that rm2799 package is no longer valid...the new price for the a550 is much lower as the the new a580 will be released..

NEX and a550 serves different purposes la...one is a super compact whereas one is a DSLR..NEX can use alpha lenses but it requires an adapter..however it cannot do auto focus..the new a580 can shoot video..

not to mention Alpha DSLR has a more useful Flash system... while there is not news of future flash development for Nex Yet... just that tiny flash which will cast shadow when use the 18-55 zoomed at 55

u can always boost the iso ma... NEX high iso performance is very good..

just maybe the pictures will be a bit not as sharp as a DSLR..

however flash can no doubt bring out the colours of the food better in some conditions.

oh, no no it has nothing to do with the result....

a food photo good or not, is up to the photographer, not the gear...

with the correct lens, and correct condition, a full understanding of WB, a photo can turn out really nice too!

what i mean flash is, something a little more advances... more towards studio setups


Added on August 28, 2010, 4:57 pmanyway, its not recommended to use direct flash on food photography ;P
