One question here, should higher or lower megapixels get sharper image??

i.e should D5k 12MP get sharper pics or D7k 16MP get sharper pics both set at iso200??

Appreciate ur professional answers

In my experience basically more megapixel means sharper image, provided bundled with good lens and sharp focus. smile.gif

I finally got my D7000 this afternoon...at Mines wonderland...

I been told is brand new set and never open box.  I believe so because when I open the box..i feel it totally new.  I turn on the machine, first is to set the language, then date n time...please correct me if i am wrong...

hi...I also just bought my Body D7000 this afternoon! haha...but you should had bought AF-S DX 50MM F1.8G lens rather than AF-S DX 35MM F1.8G lens.  Somemore, AF-S DX 50MM F1.8G lens is lot cheaper.

thanks for the reply!  At least I step in the right shop.

This machine is lot lot more complicated than D3000.  Many function and setting that I dont understand at all!!!!

I believe I really have to read the whole menu guide???? that going to take long time... blink.gif

It's still very simple compared to D300, D700 or D3 since it's targeted at consumer range. If you encounter any problem with the setting then only read, no need read all like "how to set ISO, Aperture and Shutter speed", "how to change White balance", "how to turn on your camera" doh.gif

Even my sister who is a noob gadget user knows how to operate my D300 in merely 2 days doh.gif

hey guys, im now deciding whether to get a 35mm or 50mm...any comments on it?
*
If 35mm, go for 35mm f/2D or 35mm f/1.4G. If 50mm, go for 50mm f/1.4G or Sigma 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM.
Other than that, picture quality isn't promising at all. wink.gif

Tried setting up to EV+5, seems same result; If in dark room or extreme low light, ISO 6400 is really bad, when zoom in from the camera preview can even see some red dots, but that's under extreme low light without flash.

I think the EV will help more if there's more light in the room?
35mm lens when attached to DX body, there's crop factor of 1.5x, which changes the focal length to around 52.5mm. It's good for many situations, as they say, a general walk around lens; You can use this lens for whole day if you want.

If you attach the 50mm to the DX body, the focal length will become 75mm, which means you need to stand further away from the object to get the same view with 35mm. You can take the 50mm f1.8, which is cheaper but let's say you want capture full body, you need to stand further away than if you use the 35mm.
Personally, I prefer the 35mm f1.8G which cost around RM800 or less.

Lens quality of 35mm f/1.8G is bad sad.gif
Picture kinda soft.

Besides, in future when you wanna upgrade to full frame, you will suffer of smaller megapixel because 35mm is made for DX bodies.
