Sifuss I need an advice.
I am owner of D3100 (I bought it because I feel it is the best entry level DSLR for Nikon)
without a deep research on it's AF-S motor.
nowadays I am having difficulty to find good lens for my body.
as lens with focus motor (G lenses) a way more expensive compared to D lenses.
Take 50mm 1.4 G is almost 2x as much as 50mm 1.4 D

moreover it's even harder to find 3rd party lens. take tammy for example
17-50 2.8 w/o VC is only 1.1 - 1.2k however the one with VC is 1.8-2k

well, I don't feel it is worth to pay extra for G/VC thingy.

so I am thinking to upgrade from d3100 to d90 (USED), even my d3100 age is only 1 month old.
do you think it is a wise thing?? because I am dying want to try 50mm (most probably 50mm 1.8D)
however if I am stick with my body I have to go for 50mm 1.4G instead which based on the review it doesn't have significant improvement from 50mm 1.8D
so, sifu any advice? Please.. I am totally confuse

I've take a look at 35 1.8 but it seems not as sharp as 50mm 1.8D or event 50mm 1.4 G, that makes me considering 50mm 1.8D with d90 body.. but still yeahh I am downgrading my sensor performance plus the processor.. =X


do you think it's a good thing to go for 50mm 1.8D instead??

so, do you think upgrade to d90 is necessary in this scenario?? because 50mm 1.8D seems like must-have lens I am thinking to give it a try.

guys which one is your recomendation nikkor 35 f 1.8 or Sigma Lens 30mm F1.4 EX DC HSM? for D3100?

How about nissin di 622? or young nou bla bla blaa.. I don't know much about that yong thingy.

I would say f/8 is more than enough. Back then when
I did research about lens they say it depends on type of lens,
some lens still give you no distraction even you use it until f/11 some f/8 is it max. but normally f/8.

Question :

you can get it for rm 1950 I think..

I suggest to go for speedlite 1st. Agree with your bro

Sorry I can't understand you.

they are plenty of flash technique. you can use commander mode etc as well. But the best part of having speedlight is having a long range flash without suffering harsh flash effect. IMHO, you can ask another nikon sifus though

Yay speedlight


Geisha means that Japanese geisha with a sexy body??

go for nissin good for beginner like me
nissin di622 (made in China) less feature but still consider good for learning purpose. if you want to experiment around with commander mode go for mark II.
I bought my nissin di622 mark II for 470rm. I dunno if you be luckier than me.
or nission di822 still China brand but with a lot of feature (which I am not really sure). around 800-rm

The best out of the best nissin sb900. the longest range flash, with a lot of feature inside it. (yet I am not sure what is the feature, however the recycle time, and sync time is fastest out there IMHO) you can get it for 1500-1700Rm

Oppss typo.. I mean nikon

you have to master the flash in order to be a flash master

let me convince your dad to give it to me

I love her ''mole"
anyway if you zoom the picture there is a dirt "I think her food fell down" near to her breast right-side

how about d4 dad?
asik!

if the lens come as kit lens, they will give you grey paper warranty instead of normal yellowish color.
however you still able to claim the warranty.

dude I will sue your dad for not giving me that thing!

it's international laa.. ==a
