QUOTE(fruitie @ Nov 15 2010, 10:57 PM) New generation of DSLR doesn't really meant for taking photos only. HDSLR is something that looks tempting but I'm yet to start exploring.  Plan to get another 16GB SDHC specially for HD video.  U mean to say u have a 16gb sdhc card and u need another one? haha does the video come out alright when u use the 55-250mm on zoom without a tripod?

QUOTE(-kytz- @ Nov 15 2010, 11:00 PM) Thanks goldfries. Agree on the distractions, yes they are pretty distracting. Couldn't take my time to compose at all, let alone position the dishes to angles which i want or move away the distractions  I'll try to work out what's the best aperture i should be using-perhaps f/2.8? White balance i set it at Auto  Imma lazy, still haven't play play with manual WB yet, but i rather shoot RAW  Haha. Same like me, still using Auto ISO but lazy to shoot with RAW la.

Today I went shopping. Walk until leg pain. Then I walked into the camera shop to see some stuff while resting my feet. 15 minutes later, I came out with something. http://twitpic.com/3740ifThis post has been edited by azrinarizz: Nov 15 2010, 11:10 PM

QUOTE(lilbluryou @ Nov 15 2010, 10:43 PM) i guess so...but even my phone can do HD recording..haha just the other day when i was at a wedding i noticed this guys holding the 60d shooting a video.. i just don't get it..the dslr should serve for one purpose...which is taking pictures.. That's not true. HD DSLR video is very different from phone recording. From sensor size, depth of field to interchangeable lens. It provides a much cheaper alternative and has even been used for professional videography.

There's so much jittery frame rate in phone's HD video recording Most importantly , can they do shallow Depth of Field?Or can they do good low light recording with high ISO?

I need a new ext HDD to store all those 20mb RAW files OR Get a flickr PRO account and upload all the 18mp size, and have a complete personal online photo storage!

HDD is not really an issue but just that I'm lazy to convert to JPEG.  Pro account cheap ma, I only paid RM 80, now USD already depreciates so much, you should get one too.

You could always get extra rechargeable batteries and you can use them for your flash when you're not using the p&s. If you don't have a flash, getting the batteries first would be a good excuse.

I'm not a tripod kinda guy, so I don't know how I'll live without IS
