lazlo: awesome shot... if theres a flaw, there would be 2 IMO. Not symmetrical enough and the flare is distracting. nice one tho.

^ good one, but again, the flare. HAHA. fisheye ar?

i recognize carls jr fries.. ahahha.. some of ur pics abit underexposed..

easy to MF ar?

greyshadow: if really cant bring all 3.. then definitely 18-55 and 50mm 1.8... BUT, if you intend to UP the ISO until 1600-3200, then dont need to bring the 50mm...

eddybeh: I think the repair cost is not worth it. might as well get another secondhand one... UNLESS of course if the repair can guarantee 100% chance it wont be faulty again then go for it.

mastering89: i just got myself an old tokina lens (not pro version)... and the flare is also bad.. like yours... i dont know whether its flare or coating problem... but smaller than f4.5 then it can produce pretty sharp image.

mastering: the tokina 2870 f2.8 (not pro). haha.

freddy: nice set. i especially like the first one.

evilhomura89: nice one ... obviously you have a good eye for photography.

^ very nice one. and nice work removing the flower.. coz it looked like it grew on the guys head. haha.

DSLR more manual controls.

any can recommend good card readers? mine always get spoiled after few months... cheapo brand. AHAH.

I would say definitely. Coz the bagman is like 7mdh... and the padding is also great... huge compartments and comfortable...

probably not. coz it looks like a camera bag anyway. but not as obvious as those lowepros la.

then you might want something smaller... the driftwood series bags are kinda of okay actually.. since its not so popular (i think), hence not alot of people would know its actually a camera bag.

yeah. i wouldnt recommend bringing with a bottle inside. HAHA.... and also i seldom (never actually) bring my camera to college.. I dont want to look like a douche swinging my DSLR around my neck.

but again, as I said, you might want to look at the Driftwood bags.

i think bagman is a superb alternative to crumpler.. since crumpler's prices are quite steep.

^ yeah. not to mention flare control.

evilhomura89: simple. I think its shot using fast fps (or whatver you call it on video) - like shooting slow mo vids. put the handycam/camera/vidcam on a tripod and hop on a train and let the train move... and there you have it.

haha... chill la... let that white balance whiner say want he wants to say. :whistle:

and i like using an 'inferior' brand. shows that i dont have to rely on 'superior' product to show off my superior skills.. AHAHAHA just kidding ~~~!

its no doubting that C and N do have much much better higher end models. but we normal casual shooters cant afford those kind of gears.

just say: "coz sony makes TV, C and N got tv?"
