QUOTE(geekster129 @ Dec 2 2010, 08:00 PM) I heard of these guys before - SovietMontage, I think they use something called the beamsplitter, but still haven't understand the concept and how it works... from google i found this diagram below, does this image make sense to you?  both transmitted and reflected beam should show the same image OT: zstan, are you going to monash open day?

QUOTE(geekster129 @ Dec 2 2010, 10:55 PM) Does it mean they arrange the 2 5DMkII in an L-shape fashion? One captures the transmitted beam and the other captures the reflected simultaneously while each body having slightly different exposure settings? i guess so...since HDR requires different exposure to be merged into one btw, anyone here feel the pain of owning a camera but the camera is not by your side for a few days (eg, left it somewhere, sent for servicing)? man, i miss my camera  left it at home cause i didn't think i would need it since i'll be away just for one week |

QUOTE(Mikeshashimi @ Dec 3 2010, 09:53 PM) a i was attracted by NEX at first, it looked sleek n sexy to me..then i thought, why not since i don't own a camera yet and photography is something i would like to pursue as hobby Actually, ive always wanted to ask (if i havent already asked), why each of you guys here chose Alpha? for me, it was because my friend (who upgraded to a d300) used to have the a200... so normal peer influence kicked in. Then when i got to know the DSLR community, Sony's thread here is 90% of the time very friendly and helpful (not to say others arent). And also, the fact that quite a number of people put down sony makes me want to prove them wrong.  and i like to be part of something growing.  then a friend of mine who owns a C, told me everything about basic photography, i got interested and started reading/researching on DSLRs people around me are either C or N, except for a guy who owns an a200 but he's using it for better quality pictures and not really into gears or serious photgraphy i think a33/55 and a560/580 was announced shortly after that (i was very impressed with the spec) and lots of review for a33/55 came out and i was quite attracted by the results in the end, i guess it's the competitive pricing of sony's camera that won me over This post has been edited by evilhomura89: Dec 3 2010, 10:07 PM |

QUOTE(chiahau @ Dec 5 2010, 08:27 PM) Lol. check box sealI think bro mastering owns a A33 lol. And i think its decent enough 2 compare with some of the better and more expensive DSLR in market. Camera matters less, its the skills that pawn and make people awe at your pix. How to check a new Sony Alpha huh? I am supposed to help someone pickup his A33 2morrow also >"> check picture numbering, but make sure your mem card is formatted/empty before doing so as some user reported continuation of numbering from used card check for dead/stuck pixel on EVF and LCD by using a completely white background (white paper) and then completely black background (use lens cap) |

few days ago, i managed to poison my friend who was contemplating between d3100 n a33, in the end she had a higher preference to a33 since the price is like an extra 100 (before that she was comparing a290 n d3100
 but i just had to poison her with all the features of a33 such as better ISO noise handling, articulating LCD, 7 fps, continuous AF during video etc)today, she went to pc fair n asked around...the people from the shop damn evil, for a33 immediately said RM2399 is the cheapest with kit lens, in the end she had no choice but get a d3100 (rm1950) since it was way overbudget... when she told me, i was like WTF, 2399 lowest?? that's the retail price..if street price sure she would get it immediately now she's regretting for not asking more cause i already told her a33's street price but during time of purchase she thought the price i've mentioned is body only price This post has been edited by evilhomura89: Dec 5 2010, 11:35 PM |
