somemore it really depends on the financial situation... even though u knew long run will save you alot more, but now u need dslr so badly, so badly poisoned, but only enuf money to get 60D, instead of 7D or 1d mkIV, then just go for 60D lo.. im sure u will not really regret after getting 60D. its a good camera. i get 500D but not 550D cuz i got really really limited budget that time. and i know i will be upgrading again in the future.. so, its ok lo just learn from 500D since that time i only ahve that amount of money to allow me to buy that model..

guys, don't spam.
QUOTE(Michaelbyz23 @ Oct 6 2010, 12:29 AM) i understand aspire's situation as well.. but mayb perhaps he don really need the features that 7D body offers yet? like i said previously, im sure most of us will upgrade later.. so he get this one to learn first i guess? after that few years later after he know mroe bout photography and understand his needs, he will upgrade a better one.. the 60D just fits nicely into ppl who have not owned any dslr previously in my opinion.. most people couldn't even use 500D properly to begin with. i'd rather they spend $$$ attending workshop / classes to improve rather than spending more on body and feel good but photos look the same. |

QUOTE(chinti @ Oct 6 2010, 12:27 AM) wow~ ur way of getting lens~ each lens getting more exp~ not very sure what u trying to ask here. did u mean,btw,just a question tht suddenly pop out from my mind~ its better a get only a wide angle lens or isit better 2 get a wide angle tele lens~? *nt getting it,just asking* is it better to get a wide angle lens(10-22) or is it better to get a wide angle tele lens(15-85) is that what u mean? it depends on your preference la. if it was me, i'll get 1 lens for normal outing(17-50), 1 for tele photo(55-250), 1 UWA(10-22), 1 fast aperture prime(30 f/1.4), and a flash of course that is the set up which i prefer. *reply continue from last thread |

U fellas talking bout 24-70L. Very cheap only la now. There's a guy called shadow-dweller or sumthing selling it for only rm4700 IIRC. Who cares whether 24-70L IS comes out or whatever since it's so cheap now.

yea, what goldfries say is true..
no need so rush wan get the best of the best one go. most of the people only get their pro level bodies after years of experience with lower body. like goldfries himself, he use 500d 550d also wat. now baru upgrade to 60D cuz the features this body offers appeal to his needs. as for me, i have been reading for months and i began with pns camera before i venture into dslr.. so once i got my first dslr, it doesnt seem new or alien to me anymore.. instead i can enjoy the photography itself, while learning new skills.. |

QUOTE(goldfries @ Oct 6 2010, 12:33 AM) guys, don't spam. This is why I bought a Sony Alpha 1st. So that I can abuse the free workshops n free photography trips to the Zoo, Melaka, etc etc. Those workshops sure help a lot n get right down to the basics that so many fellas here dont even have any idea about. FOV, Compression, barrel distortion, pincushion distortion n all oso talak tau. most people couldn't even use 500D properly to begin with. i'd rather they spend $$$ attending workshop / classes to improve rather than spending more on body and feel good but photos look the same. |
