What brand so cheap?

Same here. Sometimes with ownself created acronyms I need to scratch my heads and ask myself what the fellow is talking about? Wasting time. Maybe those guys type with two fingers that's why they use lots of shortforms indiscriminately. 

Does it support Sony camera? Interested for this thingy since it mention that can do video as well

thanks for the info
u sure it's a560? cause a560 is scheduled to be released next year

ok, this is a bit random, but what does it say on the top right corner (the japanese characters)?
I like that kind of watermark

Newbieeeeee: Where got A380 got 3.5 FPS? Does your manual say so? It does 2.5 FPS only.

bigxiaoniu: There is no Tamron 17-50mm VC for A-mount.

fansoption: Nice Jane set! I like #1 and #4.

And yes, all these magazines with the word Digital all tak pro wan cannot get their facts right.

laszlo: Whoa wiiide! Nicely done with the contrasting WB. Love the fisheye shot too.

joejoe2004: Wah A560, rare! Since the A580 is supposed to be in town but not the A560.

destfull: Love Flowers 1!

kopitiam: Yes, we can use M42 mount lenses with A-mount bodies.

sevenor: Portraits? Sony 135mm F2.8/T4.5 Smooth Transition Focus.

Also, don't forget that Malaysians tend to follow friends without doing research, hence we have very imbalanced distribution of brands compared to other countries. Step into any second-hand shop in Singapore and you will see a lot more variety.

gjtan: If you could get #1 with her standing in front of the frames it would be better.

evanttc: Disable Red Eye Reduction in the menu, and AF Illuminator.

grange: The A33/A55 use an Electronic View Finder. It matches the actual picture more than real life.

mastering89: Then invite her for a healthy meal!

8tvt: The A200/A300/A350/A500/A550/A560/A580 all have removable battery doors.

The VG-C70AM and VG-C90AM however have a slot for the A700/A850/A900 battery door to enter.

Love the colors on her shot, just wish your WB was cooler - the colors would pop more.

ahpingko: I much prefer your natural shots. The HDR's blacks are too black.

ahtiven: Well done on #2!

jedi_master: Looks good to me. Why not using your A850 then?

vcxv: Have notified Darren about the site being down.

Newbieeeeee: The heaviest combo with the 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G SSM is:

Sony A850 - 850 grams
Sony VG-C90AM - 320 grams
Sony NP-FM500H (2 batteries) - 78 grams * 2
Sony 70-300mm F4.5-5.6G SSM - 760 grams
Sony HVL-F58AM - 440 grams
Sanyo Eneloop AA (4 batteries) - 27 grams * 4

Grand Total = 2634 grams

Or for even more:

Sony FA-EB1AM external battery pack for HVL-F58AM/HVL-F56AM - 130 grams
Sanyo Eneloop AA (6 batteries) - 27 grams * 6

Maximum Pimped Out Weight = 2926 grams

zstan: Hmmm I think I need to start peddling flash gels at TTs again - the mixed WB from the flash and tungsten light has caused two colors in your portraits.

fansoption: At last we meet! And yes we must get Lee Photo to send their feedback. The A55 + ringflash is otherwise a great combo!

no wonder la..coz i always use iso 200 if i use flash....now i know why already...a silly mistake..  
thx all sifus!

use a smaller f stop. f5.6-f8.

depends how close you shoot the models.

if you using 300mm lens sure got bokeh.

shoot close up of their heads also can get bokeh.

Time for 70-300 SSM :]

i m poor la...lol..i use 75-300 can d...

haha...can already la...we use it like SSM...manual focus!!...    

heard that the Tamron 17-50mm F2.8 AF slow?

sigma 18-70mm F2.8-4 nice ar?

my macro

ya, managed to find something using "stacking" as the main keyword
i guess it's something like - http://www.digitalurban.org/2010/02/tutori...acking-for.html

Added on November 2, 2010, 10:23 pmand then i ventured into looking at star trails

azamunekurone: Welcome! LOL.

e-jump: Unfortunately, I think we know one other Zeiss prime that will complete it...

FrozenRay: Certainly, do not hit it with a frozen ray.

Yuck, I hate excessively tone-mapped HDR with obvious halos. Alphas do not do that, thankfully!

fansoption: Yes, the Lensbaby lenses do come in A-mount.

lugiamcg: Nice #3 and I like the cropping of #4!
