Like I said, use a reliable card reader. I've been using cap ayam  (DNA) and it is doing fine so far.

But now using Apacer AM500 because my DNA no CF card lol. Might opt for a firewire CF reader (RM300+!!! sad.gif ) or maybe the Sandisk reader...
*
good card reader > cable > cap ayam card reader

thats y im still stuck with cable, been deciding very long wan to get d Apacer reader (rm30+) or Sandisk reader (rm120+) tongue.gif


btw, whose Penang ppl here? i know KTCY is, anyone else?
going Penang nxt week, train trip laugh.gif

18-55 can focus quite close one right? But 35mm f2 and 17-35 f/2.8 is even closer if not mistaken smile.gif

maybe he used auto-area AF points? so didn focus on wat he wanted?

QUOTE(sakurakinomoto @ Jan 1 2011, 12:03 AM)
Which 50mm f/1.4 I should go for a D200. Come come. I don't want f/1.8
*
if budget allows, of cos f/1.4G
but f/1.4D is good oso, jz d G has better CA n ghosting control

QUOTE(BenSow @ Jan 1 2011, 01:01 AM)
D3100 using 1855 autofocus during video recording very bising man...

Yup, stuck in middle, but for indoor shot, it's more useful than 50mm most of the time, or during dinner sitting down, you don't have to move around, move to the back, etc. Espeicially tight place, you cannot go behind anymore, I face this problem even with 35mm sometimes when the people wanna take group shot while sitting down.

Anyway, I notice many pro FX owner owns or buys the 35mm f1.8G DX, even use it on their D3S.
*
cos d 35 f/1.8G on FF bodies in FX mode, d lens gives very nice vignetting, kinda lomo feel
