evilhomura89: Yes, very worth it!
ahpingko: I don't care for radio triggers to be honest because I can always trigger wireless flash with no problems. Just that people don't know how to shade their flashes in sunny weather, or that the flash signal can bounce. |

QUOTE(lwliam @ Feb 9 2011, 11:06 PM) colors are not there, as ahpingko said, yes it looks dull.. doesnt attract any attention from me at all.. the clouds could be made more interesting by adjusting the curves in PP, instead of an entire near gray canvas, creating too much negative space with no discernible subject matter. thanks for the comment. i already adjusted quite a lot of curves. pushing it further will result in more noise. =/lastly, horizon's a bit lopsided, but that's just nitpicking...  |

zstan: easy, covert it to black and white, see the contrast, the contrast represent color in RGB. if low in contrast, its flat. if high in contrast, surely the photo is nice.
albnok, i wish i had a bike in taiwan, then only i can really experience the nature of taiwan, they have soooo many beautiful landscape... |

QUOTE(evilhomura89 @ Feb 9 2011, 11:06 PM) is it worth getting if a 2nd hand 30mm f2.8 macro is priced at 400? totally worth it! i think normal 2nd hand value is around 550-600. 400, no need consider anymore just grab it. |

QUOTE(albnok @ Feb 9 2011, 10:57 PM) ahpingko: Refer to the first page - I've posted a how-to to hide the pop-up flash from showing in wireless. #4? uh oh xD how about pic #2 and #3? XD hahaha im trying to edit in a more dreamy feel to bring out their "sweetness" . apparently, my this "dreamy" feel is not accepted by most of my friends LOLieR: Nice! I like telephoto landscapes far more than wide-angle ones. zeipher: Nice color in #2! lwliam: Wow, magic hour on chicken wings. Nice! 67zai: Nice! I particularly like how clean #4 is (though you could shoot even more telephoto). You may also want to reduce the HDR and dodge effect - very obvious on her legs in #4. evilhomura89: I like #2 - not very conventional! Yes, 30mm is a great walkaround angle. So is the 35mm F1.8 DT SAM, if you want to shoot more in the dark than you want to shoot macro. cjlai: Bummer though that they didn't take a better picture to show the LCD swivel mechanism.
