Spam ><
C&C are WELCOME

how can u so sure? if that salesperson said is true, how?

HAHAHA.. me also donno

but the way u answer it at first looks like as if u r from the nikon sales team   

no video = no worry 

The reasoning behind is the heat generated and the long exposure or shutter being open. I'm not sure about the details or truth, but if you want to buy a product which have this feature yet don't want to use it, then I don't get the idea, might as well get one without video. Of course, it also doesn't mean must use, one could simply get it for the new technology sensor/etc. What I'm trying to say is, don't worry too much, if worry then don't use loh.

If should worry, the one should be worry more I think is Canon users more than Nikon? Canon have better video capabilities and seem use more.
Plus, the new Sony camcorder is using same sensor as the NEX camera, and its being used mainly for video.

As for company giving functionailty which will reduce lifespan or not; its hard to say, one thing to remember, business will not make something that last forever, but usually they will give some warning or disclaimer in the manual that using certain feature will reduce its lifespan or wear faster or something like that.

HAPPY NEW YEAR all.

My friend offer me his 50mm f/1.8 with rm250 , is this a nice combo set with D90 body?
Bcz i saw few post yesterday DX body + portrait 50mm lens are nice combo

imho,  50mm is kinda tight for me. soft images on f1.8. might need to turn to 2.8 to get sharper images. Posted image earlier using my Tammy 17-50. Bad side of that lens is it's kinda noisy. Focusing speed wise- so so only.

Imo 50mm is like caught in no mans land with dx, not wide and not long enough...the 35mm is ok but of cos still not that wide, but better for general shots.
only other lens i got is 70-300vr...and i feel the tamron 17-50 may do just fine...unless i go buy 85mm

Really? Hehe

35mm just like 50mm on FF body. 85mm is pretty tight on DX body. Try to ask celciuz. Hehe.

Here's a 200mm on D90,
