Haha of course when you use FX + f/1.4 you actually have more options to use available light only 

good idea! Will give it a try. 
make her like an angel. Nikon's angel LOL

You have to think this way when you're doing flash, there will be 2 light sources: Available (ambient) light and Flash.

Ambient light is the lights at your surrounding, e.g. let's say you go to a ballroom and the tungsten lights or from the chandelier will be your ambient light. SS and Aperture will affect how much ambient light you can get.

Now for flash it's a bit different. Remember, flash fires very quickly, so shutter speed will not affect much of the flash output due to the fact that the light just flash for a few miliseconds, so there's merely no time for your camera sensor to pick up additional light.

Now why we always get digicam effect (Subject look very bright, but the whole surrounding look like a cave)? This is because the camera, usually at Auto setting will attempt to meter your subject accordingly and at the same time try to make sure there's no camera motion blur due to low SS. So, the camera will think that flash is sufficient enough to lit the subject and hence increase the shutter speed to prevent motion blur. But this will literally kill of the ambient light (slower SS -> more ambient light, faster SS -> lesser ambient light). This explains the cave-like look.

I disagree one can alter the image if they know how. I mean why blame the people you photographed if you're the one who is at wrong?

enhance the eyes, eyes shadow n lips. Well I'm still new to it... need to make it more real   

hahaa
it's normal. since CMOS is the popular one and almost every camera ever produced now is using CMOS.

i bet most of the members here forget what is film anymore. or, what is RDPIII compare to TX films

Can I rephase what i've said previously on my post that I've sent here !
Sorry for bugging .

Since I ady have nikkor 50mm f1.8d , and I would like to go get a 35mm f1.8G for general purpose . Is it a good choice to make ?

OR

Sells off my nikkor 50mm f1.8d and get STRAIGHT to nikkor 50mm f1.4d

Priority lens : shoot in events , portrait shots , bokeh effect ....

Sell me 50mm 1.8D cheap , grab your 35mm since u like to shoot indoor. 50mm is too tight.

I will be there on Sunday
Hinika is a very good person.
I like his/her work.
the PP works. 

actually ... after going to lots of events & fair i realized that most of the girls are the same but in different uniforms only ... maybe in a few years time they will rotate ...

dun be 'kiam siap', please share 

I thought you mention he share his opinion/suggestion through PM? 
just kiddin, but at same time, curious what he says

im using d300s, can still fit a person opposite you in a table with some background, a bit tight still even on 35mm. (as i always took portrait during dining, can refer my blog or photo i send u).

But definitely better than 50mm on indoor, lolz.

24mm (dx) 35mm (ff) the best ideal focal range for my usage, not sure about u, haha... too bad there are no cheap 24mm f1.X focal range except the old sigma 24mm f1.8. i test my fren sigma 30mm f1.4, sharper wide-open than mine 35mm f1.8 but also exp than mine... @_@ (rm1600 he bought for canon mount)

the focus sound not a big deal for me during dining in a restaurant, wont loud than my old 85mm f1.8D, should be around rm759-789 street price currently..

all white balance has bee tuned as i shoot auto white balance and tune it back in raw. im point n shoot style, never change setting on camera, lolz...

its DX lens but it's useable on fullframe FX mode,
small or none vignette if focus close,

heavy vignetting if the focus object is far away, you can refer my blog's singapore album, all taken with my 35mm f1.8 on fren's d700.. all crop middle part from the vignette =.='

nice, cheap and sharp lens for this tiny 35mm f1.8, i love it..xD

My humble opinion, i think dont use f1.8 to focus on food because too shallow of depth of field which i think not good in food photography, but also depend in situation. Just wan to say not all must f1.8 , sometimes depend on food okay 

ew... AF-S 50mm 1.8 MTF chart is quite surprising
