QUOTE(ifaaan @ Dec 3 2010, 11:31 PM) Hey guys, how do you ensure that the nikon lens you buy is an original local set and not a grey set? The only way i know is to check the warranty card. Also buying from trusted/reliable shops also helps i guess lol

QUOTE(Kent3888 @ Dec 4 2010, 08:45 PM) Waa... respect u!! Can use 50mm to shoot whole event on DX, I don think the 35mm feels easy to shoot whole car oso!! Sure alot of 18-55mm ppl in front of u!! hahaa........ lol its my first time though and seems like there's an advantage too which is easier to get their attention  QUOTE(-kytz- @ Dec 4 2010, 08:48 PM) Why not? Bokeh> Wide shots for me  Yeap but i'd say im quite disappointed with my pics though. I think my camera have a problem

From what i can remember, the Proton exhibition area has the brightest lighting with a few spot light. Also the floor which has Peugeot, Naza, Kia etc also have good-ish lighting. Others quite bad though

Yesterday at KLIMS is my first time using the tokina 50-135mm extensively and still trying to get used to it  but it seems like my D90 body has a focusing problem, especially the right hand side autofocus point so quite alot of my pics miss focus

QUOTE(celciuz @ Dec 5 2010, 11:13 PM) -.-... not until that bad leh. Need to be lucky, I actually moved the Lexus girl a little so the shadow not so bad haha! I was like, excuse me, can you step back a little? LOL Haha i see...I tried to take a pic but didnt turn out good to my liking even with flash. Kinda shame though because of the Lexus girl was really friendly to me and my friends My friend almost went abit ape-shit at the Lexus representative when he saw the IS250 or the Hybrid suv because when he enquire Lexus HQ about the cars they said it wont be available here but now its gonna be launch soon, lucky he didnt buy a new car yet This post has been edited by gnome: Dec 5 2010, 11:17 PM

QUOTE(celciuz @ Dec 5 2010, 11:18 PM) The IS250 is for sale in Msia isn't it? My friend just bought one 2 weeks ago. The high spec IS250. I even drove around with it, shift pedal FTW! Ah ok, must be the Hybrid SUV then My friends were looking forward to some BMW, Merc and Audi's but turn out they werent avaiable other then Naza one and I also missed a chance to ride my friend Cayman S This post has been edited by gnome: Dec 5 2010, 11:24 PM

Dammit you guys, you make my tokina looks bad =( lol btw a question to those you use flash to take their pics, do you guys use any diffuser? and yea use big lens easier to get the girls attention. At first i was using the 24-85mm and they barely notice me in the crowd but once changed to the tokky they immediately spot you (even though the tokky is still smaller then nikon 70200  )

So far i've only managed to overheat my SB900 once, during my brother graduation last year. Using the flash non-stop (baru dapat flash that time  ) Really need to start using manual mode for flash though, atm im still not that confident
