Maybe you can try to look for Bagman. It's like the Crumpler 7 Million Dollar Home's clone. Should be below RM200. Canon EOS thread V31, The White Knights

QUOTE(fruitie @ Nov 9 2010, 12:03 AM) Oh ya, good recommendation. The biggest size is only RM 150. Yah, viking has been using that since forever Sifu Viking is using, still good until today, so no issue. Added on November 9, 2010, 12:05 am Yeah, simply because Buffalo is not a well-known brand. But it is so round that looks like a tortoise shell. Yeah, Gorillapod is of course in my bag la. What I meant my tripod la, the real big tripod. QUOTE(saru88 @ Nov 9 2010, 12:06 AM) im choosing in between 5MDH and 6MDH... i dun like big bag.. 7MDH is too big for me, but i've never seen 6MDH in real life... 5MDH's size is nice, but i'm just worried kenot fit everything... The 5MDH would be able to fit your current gears. At most you can add a flash before you run out of space with the 5MDH. So if you're planning to get more lenses in the future then maybe the 6MDH is a better bet. i have a 60D+18-200mm and 50mm so far... perhaps gonna get a flashgun... other lenses not sure yet... do u think 5MDH can do the job, or to be save, get 6MDH? i saw some Crumpler OEM quite cheap... dunno it's a fake or what... btw, i'm looking for screen protector for 60D... seems very hard to find tho... any recommendation? And usually those cheap Crumplers are fake |

QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Nov 12 2010, 06:56 PM) What filter you use? With the Hoya HMC on my 50 1.8, it flares like hell when there's a strong source of light in the frame. I used to use a capalang kenko for the 18-55 IS and the color/contrast not nice compared with nekkid so I just took it out and dumped it in McD's |

QUOTE(niwooe @ Nov 13 2010, 03:56 AM) QUOTE(azrinarizz @ Nov 13 2010, 06:45 AM) Yes, they already stopped the warranty. Usually lenses in my opinion won't die within 1 year if you know how to take care. If crap happens, I have always someone here to help me out. Ahh yes, so what I've heard is true. Sad that Canon stopped the international warranty scheme for lenses. It was a good way to buy lenses overseas and yet still enjoy some peace of mind for a year. But yeah so far, none of my stuff had to be sent back for warranty |

QUOTE(ComradeZ @ Nov 13 2010, 07:19 PM) lol.... thats why.... been thinking if either 5d mark ii or 7d can do it.... Yes, like what Sniper said, forget about the 5D2 if you want quick autofocus. It's exactly the same as your 550D. It has an additional 6 invisible AF assist points for AI Servo but the rest is the same. I mean.. I love to snap moments of my frens having fun... somehow getting picture sharp for the sake of moment really can't be done with 550d clearly....and yeah... kinda dislike when have to force them to stay still and such been testing on this lil fella... as a practice since he always moves alot at last I gave up and give him abit massage on his back... then he can stop and lay down at 1 place If you want fast, get a 7D or a used 1D series. |

QUOTE(ComradeZ @ Nov 13 2010, 08:20 PM) been thinking of getting a FF body since... it is nice... somehow the af is... abit on the downside but.. for 7d it is nice since it capture fast... but somehow i find it something missing when comparing between the IQ of 5dm2 and 7d.... Yeah the AF is crappy to me. My 40D performs better with the same lenses. this 1 is quite nice guide... love the way he explains everything QUOTE(Andy Lo @ Nov 13 2010, 09:14 PM) For still subjects, assuming lens calibration and lighting is good, 5D's AF will definitely be more accurate. Cannot deny that. For still subjects + center AF point only, yes it is more accurate. But not for the peripheral points. Even with a still subject and shooting at F5.6 If shooting at shallow DOF at long focal length, very hard to anticipate as even the slightest difference in distance will throw the subject OOF. The lens plays a more major role for AF tracking speed since the USM motor in every lens models also do vary in speed. Higher end bodies seem to be able to process faster and also lesser shutter lag.. But agree on the old fashion way as well.. It's probably the least-headache way... I do that often still. Added on November 13, 2010, 9:17 pm Like mentioned by many members earlier, the lens motor plays major role and the overall kit also will affect the tracking.. Blur from shutter and OOF is diff... Maybe easier if you share the photo with EXIF and details. QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Nov 13 2010, 09:57 PM) LOL totally agree with Sniper. I'm sure fruitie will get her UWA by January |

QUOTE(ComradeZ @ Nov 13 2010, 10:08 PM) Mind sharing your experience with 5d mark ii ai servo? or maybe ai servo and ai focus? or is it that you just use the old way? I use One Shot mode most of the time, unless I'm shooting sports. Then I'll use AI Servo. QUOTE(faizzi007 @ Nov 13 2010, 10:13 PM) I know ai-servo can give effect like moving cars background damn bokeh but subject almost perfect clear.. AI Servo is predictive focus. It's the mode to use when you're shooting anything moving.But what does Ai-Focus effect on my subject when Im doing fashion walkway?? AI Focus is a "smart" focus system whereby the camera switches between One Shot and AI Servo. If the subject moves, the camera will change to AI Servo automatically. If it's still, it's One Shot. |

I wouldn't mind joining in if I'm around on that day. I'm always a retro lover. If everything goes well, it should be on the 11th of December 2010.

QUOTE(zickenx @ Nov 14 2010, 11:31 PM) Haha thanks for the reply. ANyway. Would be thinking of going directly to the Cannon store on monday to 'invest' in the particular unit. Rather spend a few hundred more just to be sure Just as a guideline, a 550D kit with 18-55 IS is around RM2800. Don't pay too much. As long as you get a local set with 1+2 years warranty you'll be fine |

QUOTE(goldfries @ Nov 15 2010, 12:12 AM) ehh shouldn't it be less already? 550D + 18-55 IS price RM 2,799 quite a while already. AFAIK body drop price bit kit set last i know that time no drop la. i thought maybe could've drop already since 60D came out. Hmm I'm not sure, anyone has the latest price? I just got the price from some forummer here selling cameras. Body only is RM2200 though. So the kit might be lower then RM2800. |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Nov 15 2010, 12:40 AM) Luckily the value doesn't depreciate much else I'll have heartache. Yeah, it'll depreciate only when the 550D successor is released I bought it when it was just released in March, that time for RM 2470, still OK la. But right now, the 550D is one awesome camera. I actually like it a lot. |
