CLS shoot at Harbour Bridge. The best thing about D70/D70s is high sync flash capability, up to 500.. brows.gif

The new higher range lens are all N lens. ;-) This is pretty much how Nikon differentiate their higher range versus their normal lens I guess. Like how Canon label their L.
Fast sync. With that you can shoot up to 1/4000 (D90). I think 1/8000 on higher end bodies.

I see. I tried with my friend's D90, I managed to set until 1/200 only.. hmm.gif

QUOTE(KTCY @ Nov 18 2010, 04:13 PM)
Mind to share how to set this thing?

Ha.. Thanks for the info.. My friend is coming back to Melb soon.. Hope there are still stock with the shop he bought it from...

EDIT: my friend said that the blur mostly happen when using 50mm f1.8 lens he got and seldom happen on the 18-105mm kit... Does that means his camera is ok and its his skill problem? He also mentioned that when he bump his ISO up to 1600 and apperture up to f2.8 then blur not tat bad.. Is it equipment or skill problem here? (He mostly use AUTO ISO... Still new to DSLR)
*
It's a bokeh or blurr? I had a friend who bought D90 and tested his camera with my 50 f1.8, "Why got so many blur?" doh.gif
Maybe you can post some pictures here and these people can help you perhaps. wink.gif

cik_tak, for a kit lens with that price I would rate it very good. I've used canon's 18-55mm and I feel nikon's 18-55 is better. And please don't go compare a 1.9k tamron 1750 with nikon 1855VR, it's not fair.
You pay what you get, I didn't say 18-55 is better than 18-70 or the expensive 16-85, but 18-55 is not something so bad that we would call it CRAP. Crap = USELESS, no value at all.
I've captured lots of photos using the 18-55 NON VR before, and it's not crap either.

QUOTE(cik_tak @ Nov 20 2010, 05:02 PM)
The lens quality not as good as 1870.. If u wanna cheap lens u better go for 50mm 1.8 .. The focusing grip not as good as 1870 ... Color not gud enuf .. Low light even worse .. And 1 more y u need VR on 1855 .. R ur hand shaking .. Damn weird

Pointless argue with you. You just don't get it.

Stop arguing about this crap and that crap people. Expensive lenses do not guarantee a good picture if the photographer is a crap. Mastering your metering and using available lighting are what I learn from my fellow photographer friends.

Shot using D40 and kitlens 4 years ago I think. It's a crap lens.. laugh.gif

Ok people. Push the limit of your kitlens first. Learn what you need to learn. Poison is a normal thing, it makes people closer each other. wink.gif

18-55 isn't CRAP, the person call it, is !
Comparing 300bucks kit lens with 18-70 which retail at 1.1k ?
Pointless comparison.
sweat.gif
I'd do the same. But maybe another angle ?

Lazy to 'korek' my old dvd. They are among my first subject for wedding shooting. I know nothing at that time. Just want to post my pic about kitlens and available lighting.

Thanks KTCY.

That is the 28-70 f/2.8 AF-S lo. Older than that is 35-70 f/2.8 AF wink.gif
Current version is 24-70 f/2.8G.

Oh my. It's 28 instead of 24. My bad doh.gif

QUOTE(adriancs @ Nov 26 2010, 11:25 PM)
There is only one 28-70/2.8 and in two colours in Japan. I used to own one, in black, till about 5 years ago. Its a fine sharp lens, but too heavy, expensive and large for its limited zoom range. The afs is as fast as today's 24-70, but it feels like a fat hog. I'd prefer the new 24-120/4 for the added range and vr over the 1 stop larger aperture.

Reallt heavy huh? I tried my dad's Tokina 80-200 f2.8, my D70 feels like going to broke because of the weight.. hmm.gif
