Hi all...have not been here for sooooooo long tongue.gif

was super busy for the whole month of 7 in lunar calender shakehead.gif

my mum was admitted into hospital for dengue, and my dad was admitted too on the day my mum discharged. My mum just normal dengue however my dad was infected by dengue hemorrhagic fever,which could lead to death. My dad stayed in ICU for a week and finally recovered after several dangerous stages. LUCKY! hmm...perhaps not,my car was stolen together with my laptop while I get my dad discharged from hospital,lol...and my beloved pet was dead the next day my dad discharged from hospital...

I think every bad things were over now rclxms.gif

been to Shanghai & Hangzhou after the few incidents above,luckily nothing bad happened. thumbup.gif

Thanks lwliam,zstan & albnok,everything is fine now rclxms.gif

Anyone know where to get Tokina 1116 cheaper? I checked digitalsmania website,seems like he's not carrying Sony mount,but C/N mount@2.3k is quite cheap?

Thanks

got effect la..got high tendency to vignette at the widest focal length only...works perfectly..

u see..the sky blue colour got very nice gradient one in that thread ...

i thought the wide angle would eliminate the CPL effects? shocking.gif

Photo SHARING. Shot this on a short weekend trip up to Perak. One of the last remnants from our past - the tin dredge.

This was shot in RAW and then processed in Photomatix Pro to get at this HDR outcome. Did a fair bit of tone-mapping to get the final output.

haha...well everybody love dinosaur...i have a dinosaur (minolta 7xi-film slr) sitting in the store room..not sure what to do with it....so far all have the latest technology and their own special features.... but A55 dslt is still very new technology..don't think sony has perfect it....probably when A77 is out then the dslt will be mature....i still like canon 60D but the moie format is in .mov format...i need the .mp4 format...so have to wait for A580 to compare....

haha..thanks for the offer but sorry to say i have to turn you down cause..
1. IINM your metz36AF-4 can only tilt from 0-90 degrees and cant swivel from left to right..
2. I am funding for f42 unless i can find a really really good deal for f58 or if i suddenly win lottery tongue.gif (but too bad i dont buy..)
*
You might wanna consider the new flash in Photokina 2010. It has the swivel head like f58 but I think it's smaller flash similar with f42 level drool.gif

New products tend to have high prices dont they?  tongue.gif
anyways can you feed me in more with more info?pictures or links to it?
*
I don't think so,if it's f42 replacement,it should be around the same price as current f42,just like what albnok mentioned. There are plenty of photokina2010 photos in google tongue.gif

QUOTE(Newbieeeeee @ Oct 7 2010, 04:23 PM)
Ahh yes.. Haha! Its okay.. =D
What model?
*
Don't know what model,looks like a f42 replacement for me.


Any UWA users here can suggest me a filter system for landscape? For example Cokin P system? Or Tian Ya perhaps? Do the filter holders cause vignetting on UWA lenses? Thanks for the info,I am FUTURE new learner in UWA notworthy.gif

on my 11mm, there will be some part of the filter holder visible. turned to about 12-13mm, it will be gone. or there is a thinner series from Cokin, but im guessing that it will be more expensive

Thanks William for the suggestion. Waiting CJ in cafe to COD my new Toki yawn.gif

aiya, there's no such thing as NEX or Alpha or whatnot one la... we're all here as a family of Sony users.. even you are using PnS also, nothing wrong one ma, even if from other band camp, sure, why not share your ideology and knowledge?

QUOTE(TrutH_SeeKeR @ Oct 9 2010, 01:56 AM)
i know we r one big family, but i read somewhr it says that NEX opening their own thread. thats all. maybe just a proposal..i do agree we stick as one under this thread...we can exchange views n experiences as well

Ya,I think one of the reason for us to choose Sony because of the friendly family here also brows.gif (friendly in poisoning ppl?)

That's why I don't understand why the N keep on open thread with different models sweat.gif Perhaps they have bigger family? hmm.gif
