Thanks. You should share some tamron 10-24 poison too

He quotes 2k. Don't know can nego or not (I know CJ can read this) I WANT NEGO!

All sifus ..

with affordable price, which is the best 3rd party lens 70-200 / 70-210 @ F2.8 ?

Btw, what is the market price for used beercan 70-210 ?

Pls advise.. Thx.

Good afternoon...thanks for all the advices and critics on my yesterday queries.....don't worry hiansitt, actually i prefer negative critic with facts because i have read so many good reviews but problems are not highlighted. yesterday and today comments have made me do more research and thinking on A55, especially the video clip in youtube. I will agreed with you (hiansitt) and albnok, A55 do have better AF for video and very practical for my video purpose. My concern on sensor overheating also has been addreesed, it seems like canon (7D, T2i) are capped at 12 min, Nikon (D5000, D90) are capped at 5min. Lastly, some users in DPreview forum also indicated that the continuous shooting with high speed memory cards will reduced the "blackout" to almost 10 sec instead of 40-50sec. Now i just has have to try out A55 by end of this month if available and buy or wait for another 11 months for 2nd generation "translucent" camera A77....haha.

Izzit rumor said A77 will be out beginning of next year?

2k for first hand?WOW.

about the blackout thing when you use continuous shooting, you have to compare it objectively.

the blackout time, when using 10fps, to shoot 5 pics one go, compared to 10 pics, compared to 100 pics, for sure the processing time will be different, assuming you are using an above average speed memory card.

thx guys....it is guinea pig..not hamster..

continue spam my cute pig..

Thanks for your advice, i normally take 5-10 pics the most in continuous shooting...so not that concern to me as long as the high speed memory card can help to reduce the recovery time (blackout).......so any advice on lens...need something like 50f1.8 or 50f1.4 for macro use.....not a pro yet so need lens that is reasonable in price....

Wow! I love the soft colours in the pic! Very nice!

I like how the white in the pic has a bit of greenish tint to it. Luckily you didn't over do it, later it will become the HULK


p.s. Paging for lwliam or anyone with sigma 24-70mm macro/HSM version. I want to know what is your verdict on this lens. Is it good?


2nd question, anybody know if the lens has backfocus, can we fix/send to fix it?

define your meaning of reasonable?

and what you meant by macro use?

you want shoot a bug until can see the head big big?

50mm F1.8 where can macro..minimum focus distance quite far..i feel my 18-55 can go nearer...but lose in sharpness compared to prime..

thx..xD..cannot be hulk..hulk not cute anymore..

haha...yes nice to big bug head.....just want try out some lens...seems like everynody own a 50f1.8 lens for these purpose.....reasonable means good value for money..

50f1.8 can't shoot macro..unless u get a raynox 250..

hmm how mach u bought it eh??
the range is also nice
for you if i'm getting a UWA, what should i consider ? (distortions ?/ mfd? / sharpness for sure / etc)

Batmaninkl : for the cost of getting 50mm 1.4 , if you're interested in macro and love the 50mm range , try get the 50mm f/2.8 macro (sony/sigma). or better get the Tamron SP90

Anyone knows of anyone who is selling hvl-f42am? Or anyone who wants to buy metz 36AF-4? =/

thought u got the offer..

most everyone who owns a 50mm (or prime) aims for nice nice bokeh and sharpness lerr

Newbieeeeee : the metz 36AF-4 can trigger wireless (pop up flash trigger / flash trigger) ??? try open a [WTB] thread here and at alphanatics

Yeah got it but quite expensive still..


can use wireless trigger.. but of cuz depends what trigger u use.. phottix means no ttl lor. if use dunno what wizard then got ttl.
