berjaya times square
saturday is semi final
sunday is final

eh i was there on friday (yesterday)
i go talk to the astro video guy and he let me in to the photographers/videographers section. lol

Question , i use AF-C , Dynamic Area and used AF-ON can recompose my subjec?and that can make me get sharp image?(Assume my exposure correct)Thanks for teaching me.

Single point ? But i tot only used for shooting still object?

Use single point , will out of focus wor , if the object moving

hmmm i think nvm lar , thanks for teaching. I will try to find answer in google thanks u

Everdying, thanks for clearing me. I tot you talking about AF-S. My bad for not understand you.

So with AF-C+Single point , i can recompose my subject right ? Let say i am using center focus on my subject which is on middle in my viewfinder , so i wan to recompose it to right. So is that works ?

in what situation using dynamic area?

Alright thanks you very much Bliz.

Everdying thanks you again

I use my hand test just now. Using AF-C + Single Point. As long as you half pressed and follow the subject then u will stay in focus. While if using AF-C + dynamic, if my subject leave the point where i focus , it will select a new point to focus it izzit?

On a side note, the photo composition is excellent. If just to nitpick, the M word on Malaysia is slightly cut off. Else, it would be perfect.

Shooting like people doing their things . playing around , interacting. (All the movements can be predicted.) Unlike sport or bird shooting.

Using nikon d3100 with only 9 focus point =(

Let say im shooting stationary thing. I use af-on to focus , then i release the af-on but my focus does not lock one . Is it because my camera AF-on different with high end camera body? (i set my AE-L,AF-L button to become AF-On)

How to use the AF-On technique in the field

To emulate single-servo mode (focus/recompose/shoot)

Place the active AF point on your subject
Press the AF-On button to acquire focus
Release the AF-On button to lock focus
Recompose and shoot
To focus continuously on a moving subject

Place the active AF point on the subject
Press the AF-On button
Keep the AF-On button pressed to track focus while simultaneously pressing the shutter release
Remember to initiate the VR system (if your lens supports it) by half-pressing the shutter button prior to releasing the shutter.  Remember, VR takes about a half-second to stabilize, so you’ll want to anticipate your subject.

mid valley.

guys. mind share what bag u guys using? and the equipments u guys put in?

wanna get a bag but donno which to get

are those bags u mentioned expensive?
wow can put 70-200 in this kata? ok i go see how the bag looks like

I feel that sling bags are more useful than bagpacks coz it's easier to swap lenses and take camera in or out of the bag. Though I have a bagpack coz it's nicer to carry around

I think he's referring to Capture NX 2? Anyway, I don't think you can change WB and Hue for JPG in Capture NX 2. On the other hand, I heard that in Lightroom, it is possible.
I agree.

Yup. I have accumulated a few bags myself. Anybody know where's a good place to get Thinktank Photo's bags around KL/PJ? I know J-One has them. Anywhere else?

LOL. That's a good analogy.

I set single point AF. I want to capture a close up object with one color.
Anyone know how to stop Nikon D3100 camera autofocus while holding snap picture button halfway?
Camera just dont want capture picture and keep focus in and out.

picture spam,

was backup photographer for fren's wedding.

I carried D700+MB-D10+70200 VRII+1635+85+SB900+10inch netbook. GG almost broke my shoulders -.- Kept switching from left to right and right to left haha~

Hmm sorry my bad. I make you misunderstand

You look at the video , he said after release af-on , the focus will locked . That why i wonder why mine cannot lock one if using af-on . but using af-l can lock focus.

Maybe is the video maker mistake?

I just curious about this. I know af-on is act like half pressed shutter button but abit advanced of it.

I not asking about af-s and af-c anymore. I understand after u taught me.

Sorry ,y bad english , if you dont understand i try to rephrase again thanks u

if you're talking clients, the only thing that matters is the output lah. you may use capturenx, lr, transfer to film, rescan, photoshop, etc etc;

no matter what method you use oso can la as long as the output is nice, youre proud of it and the client likes it.

So who going to mid valley next Saturday?

I think it's around 200-300 difference. I know 35mm f2 better but i'm happy with just 35mm f1.8

One thing I notice is when I use manual focus, it doesn't stop at the max/min focus point and I can continue to turn the focus ring (just that it's a bit harder to turn). Other 35mm f1.8 owner please clarify whether it's normal or not

What's CA issue?

that is photoChop liao  ...

like this?


i was flammed "psyco" before because manually erase the joints line .
