you should keep your 30mm macro

no. a200 is a very old body.

1)Rm600~700
2)For me I wont get the 1870. Got gear stripping problem. Get the 1855.
3)Not sure
4)Doesnt worth anything
5)No need, Since you'll end up with a better bag

So...

ahpingko: post to australia i buy from u. AHAHHAHAHAHA....

stevenys :

1) Sony A200 Body - RM700-750
2) 18-70 mm F3.5 - F5.6 lens - RM170-200
3) Tamron 70-300mm lens - RM400?
4) 4GB CF - RM30-50
5) Sony Bag - RM30-50

I wouldnt pay RM1400 for an a200... but id pay that amount for a a100... hahahah...

azamunekurone: as long as u dont pixel peep, and size down the 1X mp picture to 50%, do light sharpening, everything also tack sharp~~



8tvt, imitation only copy the P series(completely) u wont find imitation for other series(or rare)... so do not get X or Z series because u end up force to buy cokin ori filter coz only they provide X and Z series filter. and they are twice triple cost of P series filter!

stick with P, it wont go wrong, even if it did, u can easily sell them as many ppl will still want to find the P series.

@stevenys
although i using A200, but if you want me pay for 2nd unit of A200, i would go for A290 which is few bucks more, (but without tele lens la)

@newbieeee
every lens using in-body focus also tend to gear strip~ but 18-70 have longer focal point than 18-55.. XD

pay 1k+ for A300, not A200. also, i wont even look at A200 even its rm500, because u wont know what u are missing on LV~

but for 1.2k, i will top up and dig hard to hard nego a A550 body+kitty for 1500. then u will never go wrong from there.

Need some advice from you Sony kakis..... my lens got fungus!!!!

Hehe, it's actually my videocam Sony HDR-SR10E. Was cleaning it and suddenly realized that fungus is growing on the inner surface of the front lens elements. The affected area is about 0.8cm in diameter.

Still under extended warranty though.

Just wondering whether I will be charged when I send in the videocam for repair, especially if they have to change the affected lens.....

Anybody have any idea?

Note : Didn't post in the videocam thread because nobody goes there!!!

um... send for cleaning since under warranty?

actually,
when come to landscape i will shoot RAW+jpeg with my old rusty 7d.since i shoot in RAW,of coz the sharpening is done,also dont notice the different much.but i do notice that CCD are more sharp than cmos when comparing to my a700 in terms of sharpness!

performance wise,i still love the minolta color!!!!

So just cleaning and maybe re-polishing/re-coating? Me got no experience in such things....

Under warranty should be free right?

Ahhhh~~!!!! Worst nightmare. If its under warranty I think you can send it back for warranty. And also, Fungus very teruk one leh.. After cleaning yr lens coating will come off. So... Yeah.

kmarc, why don't u just send it..
if anything they still quote first..

Yeah, so sad.....

Luckily I bought the extended warranty policy.

Yeah, going to send it in next week as I only noticed it this evening.

Looks like I have to keep the videocam together with my DSLR in my DIY dry box next time!!! (Usually I just put the videocam on the table.... can't imagine that will also cause fungus to grow!!!)

oh man.. that table should humid more..

of all people, you who wrote the guide "how to take care of your DSLR", sendiri kena.

actually fungus growth is User-negligent why never get proper drybox?. but anyway, just send it in, if the fungus is minor, and not within the lens assembly group (group lens are unable to disassemble) and they might need to change the whole lens group. but its rare to have fungus inside lens group due to air tight assembly.

PM me ur number, i lost my mobile a while back

is that april yap?

kopitiam: She is April Yap! Hot Body!
Posion you some pic

This pic is she pose is not for public pphotographer hehe!

Aiyooo... sifu, don't scold me la..... I didn't write on "How to take care of your videocam" ma...

Actually, I never thought about keeping my videocam in my dry box. Thought it was more for expensive DSLR + lenses. Come to think of it, I should have done it as the videocam cost me RM3k+!!!

Will send it in next week.

BTW, if need to change whole lens group, will they charge if still under warranty?

See pic :

OMG, zeiss kena fungus T.T

just send in, i think they will change for u if they cant clean it if they dont label it as user negligent.
