Direct onboard flash.

eddybeh: The Minolta 50mm F1.4 has internal reflection, which shows as a hotspot when shooting black objects with a very bright white background.

The Sony 50mm F1.4 has coatings to prevent reflection from the sensor affecting the image.

The focusing helicoid is the screw-threaded groove that moves the focusing group.

shootkk: On the contrary, the A850 is better than the A550 in terms of noise handling. Shoot RAW and you'll see why, especially when it comes to pulling shadows.

Hmmm I prefer your Macau street series.

Uzumaki NaruTo: Congratulations!

Ranceed: Great timing!

what is price for battery charger for a230? need a new one. someone stole it.

i guess you would need to buy an original one. not sure if there are any 3rd party ones out there. and original ones dont come cheap, dont think anyone would sell 2nd hand.

anyone tried out the 25mm f1.4 CCTV lens for NEX? I wanna know how is it compared to the 35mm f1.7....

oh mai..i feel that my skills sucks till the max..just nw having buffet in Delicious @ Marc Residential...the nice yellow ambience surrounding..i used bounce flash to the ceiling...at iso 800 , F10, Flash compensation -2, 1/160..WB at flash white balance+3..all the picture come out like under normal light...yes, quite sharp and nice..but without the nice yellowish ambience feel.....

you could use Kelvin settings to get the ambient like you want, even WITH flash... probably use 7000K-9000K depending on the actual ambient light, of coz your flash light have to be diffused enough..

at 1/160, what ambient light in the background also gone edi laa... with f/10 your camera is detecting sooo little light from your flash that the flash would need to fire nearly full power to actually light up the scene.

next time with conditions like this, take this as a guideline.. its not set in stone, so follow where appropriate..

f/4 - f/5.6 (larger aperture the better)
1/30 - 1/50
ISO 400 minimum, higher the better (noise limiting factor)
