Checking in the official nikon thread =D

BTW Nic, I think I will attend the KL International motorshow on 3rd Dec... Are you going? Long time didn't shoot, time to catch up =D

didn't research, I thought only 1 day at PWTC @@
Oh it's from 3-12 DEC la... Then I think maybe not 3rd already, cuz my final until 2nd, quite rush XD

Sorry to interrupt the filter discussion... Just realized Nikon offered D3s + 24 1.4 + 24-70 2.8 as grand prize for NPCI 2010... Not like I stand any chance to win any but I look up all the page but can't get the entry form/entry page.

Anyone can find it?

Woah so easy to be found? I was finding so hard... thanks!

Ermm... I can't even think of any of my photos worth entering the contest. Mostly noob scenery photos. Just enter as is, to join the fun lol.

Who knows the judge has a different point of view than me and thinks this photo is nice haha

I upgraded from D40 to D90 last time, so I will not upgrade body anymore, already satisfied with D90 =D

Next will upgrade my flash (Di622 really sucks in TTL) and maybe a prime. And the rest goes to dry box, SD cards, filters and last but not least my working pc.

Athlon 64 3000+ can't really cope with CS5 >.<

Lol my current rig is 4 years old ++ rig, single core somemore Laptop with noob turion is even faster than this.

Currently having financial crisis, after I got my 7mil dollar home and went uniqlo I'm officially broke... Waiting for sem break to earn money again T^T
i7 is overkill for me, I might just get a decent i5 =D

Oh yea, first DLE (Digital Lifestyle Expo) will be held in KLCC from 10-12 DEC. Anyone going?

I got one more event lol.
KLIMS, CF on 19th DEC, DLE on 10-12 anyday, MCO (malaysian cube open 2010) on 18th

See u there =D
Please poison me with sb900 and 1.4 ^^

Sell 85mm later and get 50mm 1.2 N when it's released XD

Or keep both

Haha yeah true, 1.2G maybe not N.

@celciuz
Oh my, didn't notice... the 85mm if 1.4 G N lens...

50mm 1.2 rumoured to be USD$3400 (2k USD more exp than canon's) @@ I doubt this lens will be RM11k plus

Try turn off VR and see whether the sound is still there or not. It should be the sound of the VR working.

not sure then... Wait celciuz or kelvin reply u

elainor, that sound is so sharp and that never happened to my 18-105... better send back to warranty.

And your signature for your lowyat is too long. read up the rules please. even just 2 images (speedtest + gearlist) is too long. u can choose 2 and align it side by side....

perhaps u need to use only 2 of them, u can't allign 3 together without going against the rule...

There's the focusing sound but not as sharp as yours, very tame and slow... not sharp at all. That's my copy la.

You can compare yourself with the on at BTS times square. I tried and that one is similar with mine.

lol BenSow, I am using 18-105 now but I miss my ex 18-55...
18-105mm MFD too long and heavy for me, 18-55 can shoot nearer and easier with one hand (sometimes I hold something with left hand and shoot with right hand one-handed)...

But because the 18-105 has longer reach and look better so I didn't sell off and get a 18-55 VR. And why 18-55 not good? It's sharper than mine and easy to carry.

Since you said for portrait and using D90 (with motor), in your list above 50mm suits the job best and with the cheapest price...

But don't expect super good quality from the 50mm 1.8, it's a sub-RM400 glass. The bokeh is not creamy or round, sometimes if background is messy the bokeh is also messy...

If budget allows you may try 50mm 1.4D or the better 1.4G.
