Good afternoon guys, C&C my picture which 1st time indoor shooting >.<

Just go trough some of people gallery.
now I know which part of my gear should I upgrade,

It's skill gear.!

I wanted to share a little discussion of mine in Canon thread.
some1 turn own giving a very strong statement about what is photography.
well spoken and powerful
just sharing.. especially for those gear mind-ed like me

LOL ><"

one more is nowadays , is use camera to decorate (fashion) just bring along without shooting anything ><"

Besides I need a recommendation. I lost my tripod ballhead plate and I don't really like my current ballhead. Seems not stable.

Do you guys prefer this type


or

this type

Don't mind the brand I'm just looking for something more stable, tight and convenient. (not mafan one lah)

Currently I'm using the first one. I'm thinking either to get a new ballhead or get the replacement plate. The major problem I'm facing is when i screw it real tight for example 45 degrees. But it will drop perhaps to 40 degrees. Hope you guys understand what I'm trying to say.

Basically just a D90 and kitlens? Shouldn't be thatttttt heavy right? Guess the ballhead ain't tight. Either consider to spend 80+ on the replacement plate or top up a lil on a better ballhead. 

I just come back from shooting one larr yesterday
Pretty decent result
working day can't do much of shooting.. hahaha

Rm1550 if I'm not wrong for siggy 50mm f/1.4

it's 1855 bro 

get D3100 more bang for bucks
y looking for 3rd party 50mm lenses? if u r expecting them to b cheaper then u r mistaken
Tamron dun have 50mm, n Sigma 50mm f/1.4 cost around rm1.5k-2.2k
for Nikkor lens, only AF-S 50mm f/1.4G can AF on D5000, cost around rm1.8k

my 18-55 nikkor have problem auto focus ( its anold lens btw ) anyone know how much to fix it? or buy new one?

Are u sure about this? 1.4 for nikkor is softer than the sigma @ 1.4, the nikkor doesn't get any better unless it is pass F/2.8 where it is sharper than the sigma(not a big difference but I don't buy 1.4 lens to shoot at 2.8)..not to mention the colour and bokeh of the nikkor is just normal only  , don't know why they don't have the Nanocoat 50mm, this 1.4AFS is a big letdown compared to the rest of the N coat lens 

1.2G N is coming

RM330.

Now I need to hunt for a good ball head, zzz my cheapo ball head cannot make it. Looking at the 496RC2 hmm.

RM295 from Shashinki.com,
