in terms to buy new d7000, what type of filter should i have cz im not into the expensive one for initial, have an idea? cz im afraid being cheated on this cz no have experience.. sad.gif

and also, how can i see the SC while im buying at shop if the shop didnt have the equipments...

SC so far i know is shoot a photo then use PC check, need download a software to check the latest photo's shutter count to know that.
filter i duno, in before that i was using kenko UV filter... this saturday wan go get HOYA PRO1D filter + 35mm f1.8 lens...good combo? or get CPL filter? since 35mm i got shoot indoor shot too

I've heard nothing but good news about J-One (although I've never been there before). For those looking for a hassle-free, good deal (can bargain kaw2) and peace of mind (authorized Nikon reseller - Nikon Malaysia Sdn Bhd warranty), you can go down to Mega Color Ampang Park. You can read my buying experience here:
D7000

HOYA HMC UV rm90
HOYA PRO1D rm 170

UV gives no difference in term of outcome.
cheapo filter will worsen the IQ by increase the amount of flare etc etc..
expensive UV filter just nice give you no reduction of IQ.

since I am poor kid I can't afford paying for rm 200++ for no IQ reduction only.

it's gonna be difference case if compared to CPL, ND and the other type of filters which will give different outcome.

whats the differ between 50m and 35mm f1.8? i want to hv d7000, which lens is more suitable?

especially when go to beach...i was headache when got a lot sand stick on my camera...lucky got filter

no reduction or not is unknown, but you can google and read more about it, it may not be noticeable or the difference is too small and also it depends on situation. When we test, we only test in controlled situation.

In the end, its up to individual preference; are you willing to go naked?

Im thinking to let go my 35mm 1.8g . =) Still got 10months warranty or 9 months

Sigmalux ???

i plan to let go my SB-600 ... still got 6 more months warranty ...

depend what you shoot.

50mm f/1.8 is fx lens, can be used on FX and DX body.
35mm f/1.8 is DX lens, can be used on DX body. FX body will have vignetting problem.

haha.. they got moneh they go for the best one bro.
for me I have to work like a stupid cow before able to get the gear that I want

the difference is the range bro, range difference will give you perspective difference.
it's like 35mm give you wider perspective where as 50mm is narrower.
in order to shoot 35mm has to be closer where 50mm is a little bit farther.
I like to use 50mm for model shooting, where as for 35mm for casual walk around lens.
you can use it for model and use it for fun dinning together with friends.
because when you are doing dinning you don't have much space to go back and sometimes 50mm just impractical.

that is my humble opinion


last time when I went to redang I am using my cheapo filter but still sand come in to my cam
