sniper, don't remove focussing screen if you don't want to make your day bad. It is so delicate that a microfiber cloth can scratch it.

Yeah I know. sad.gif Next year can save more liao. nod.gif

Yes, korek korek! Agree. Buy the one which suits your needs, as for me I asked people here before how's the Di622 performs, they didn't recommend me...
Then switched to Canon speedlite, was thinking 430EX II and going shopping with mengsuan is a bad choice. He kept poisoning me with his 580EX II and helped to survey around for the best price... sweat.gif

I actually did very little poisoning. You have to thank vikingw2k and ianho for letting me inherit their nature.

Do you know how much is used 5D2 going for now? Sigh, but it's okay, my transformation failed. Insufficient funds.

Very normal. Canon can clean that for you. Preferred that you don't fiddle with it.

Yeah, of which my CPS is being revoked. sad.gif

I had my graduation several days ago. I have got photos from my own 40D and also from friend's 5D2. The difference is apparent. At non-optimum brightness, 5D2 remains sharp and vibrant. If lighting is fine, no visible difference unless pixel-peeped.

I have used 40D with those affected lens so many times. I didn't even realise the cross type sensor have been disabled. I wonder how did they check that?

I wanna ask sifus here does this tokina 11-16 autofocus with 550D?? I got 550D so yeah 550D does not have inbody focus motor that's why i'm worried if this lens has built in AF or not. rclxub.gif

For Canon camera, you never have to worry about in-body focus motor. All models use the same thing. No confusion.

Hey, newbie here.. Just bought a 500d the other day and is enjoying it right now.  tongue.gif
How much does a DIGIEYE 0.45X62MM DG OPTICAL LENS cost? My friend told me it's quite cheap. Can I ask the pros here what is the price?

Strong vignetting and barrel distortion. Avoid if possible.
