Your say? smile.gif

Ahh, the f/2D looks pretty bad at f/2 compared to the other 2 from the review o_O.

That's why, I was shocked too. The 35 1.8G looked very decent wide open, handling on CA looks better too hmm.gif

QUOTE(./Hack-Fusion @ Apr 1 2011, 10:46 AM)
For DX user, better use the 35mm F1.8G....the sharpness is super in f1.8 (base on my 1.5 years experiences), i can't live without this lens due to the IQ and frame is just my liking.

35mm F2D is more recommended for FX user, why?? becoz i'm using it on my D700  biggrin.gif , i was using nikon D90 before D700.

Really? Can't spam some wide open pics of it? smile.gif

the only primes i have tested so far that is sharp at wide open is 24 f/1.4G, 35 f/1.4G & 85 f/1.4G ... thats like the Nikon Prime Trinity for me ...    brows.gif
*
For me, 24, 50, & 85 would be better but Nikkor's 50mm is not that good. I have a good feeling that Nikon will release the long awaited 50mm f1.2N AF-S soon brows.gif

Btw anyone using Spyder 3 Express? How is it? Good enough for the price? It's RM370 here in KB hmm.gif

Gordon Laing from CameraLabs told me on Facebook =

PS - short version? Get the DX 35mm f1.8 if you have a DX body.

Gonna go and test it later wink.gif

Hey, I'm using 50MM also! Haha!

Anyway, any good recommendation for a standard zoom lens (doesn't care is third party or not) that cost around 2K? 2.8 F value preferred.

I would suggest the Nikkor 16-85, but since you need the f2.8, then get the Tamron 17-50 VC smile.gif

Tried the 35mm f1.8 & f2 just now. Seems that I like the f1.8 version more. Will decide first, then get it later biggrin.gif

So far my experience is AF-S focuses more accurately. Even the same case on the 50G and 50D, the 50G is slower, but more accurate in focusing compared to the 50D.

Might be the case with 35 f/2D and 35 f/1.8G
*
Exactly! I had this on my mind too just now. I feel like the AF-S focuses better. And the handling of CA is good at f/2 for the f/1.8 lens smile.gif

bro I got a question, how do you remove a shade which fall into model's face w/o using flash?
how about shade? I don't think f0.95 will remove the shade which is falling into model's face.

Either flash, lower shutter speed, or a reflector smile.gif

Thanks guys! Got it for Rm800, coz it's in Kota Bharu. Can't wait to get it so just bought it here instead of waiting for next week biggrin.gif

The lens looks decent on the D90 too, unlike the old lenses tongue.gif

A reflector is damn useful, but it's hard to use. Always need an extra person to hold it. Can use our other hand but holding a camera with one hand isn't that stable, well at least for me smile.gif

Guys, how's the performance of the Nikkor 12-24 f/4? Is it worth the price? hmm.gif

I know a lot of people recommends Tokina 11-16 but I feel it's too short. I feel like replacing my 17-50 with a UWA smile.gif

I want to play with CLS badly but sadly the SU800 commender is so expensive.

How's the Yongnua flash's performance? I feel like buying 2 more to play with my Yongnua triggers lol smile.gif

I bought Yongnua triggers already last time. Pretty reliable smile.gif

It triggers my SB900 but not my Di622, so thinking of selling the Di622 and get 2 Yongnua flashes hmm.gif
