huhu..wanna clean ur eyes rite.. 

hi guys...just to share my short video tht shot with Nikon d300s...

Nice... How much damage?
Or maybe he got some inside info that d800 gonna revert back to DX !!! Jeng, jeng, jeng !!! (dramatic background sound)

I use AF-S all the time, AF-C when I need it.
Lower tech? 1Dmk4 is a 1.3x crop. Canon's flagship body like Nikon's D3s.

AF-C only when I'm shooting moving objects. If use AF-C on stationary object I can't recompose, meaning my framing is pretty much fixed. Unless of course I can make use of the AF-ON button where I set to Shutter priority in AF-C and AF only on AF-ON. Then I can have best of 2 worlds! Some of my friends does this but I'm not used to it unfortunately.

1Dmk3 is a APS-H. 1Dsmk3 then is their flagship full frame.

AF area mode and AF mode r different thing la

supposedly u AE-L d wall oso can if d wark is dark 
u set ur AE-L button to 'press and hold' or 'press and lock'?
if 'press n hold' u r suppose to keep holding d AE-L button

hmm..i just want to tell Agito about this.    . Just want to tell him not just only focus and recompose , got the techniques behind.

Yes , you right. I did not say focus and recompose sure will OOF. Just want to say focus and recompose will cause OOF. Right, It depends on your techniques,how you use.

Forget the website said focus and recompose suck, that is not what i mean. I also focus and recompose one.

hi all, i plan to buy d80 2nd hand..
it is still reliable to use this SLR since now there are so many new DSLR coming..

Buy Agito's D70, so he can fund for his next body. 

because pf price 

budget around 2k for 2nd hand with basic lens

i choose d80 because of AF motor inside and most of the new DSLR entry level didn't have it..(ex:3100)

any other good model??? and do d70 got in body AF motor?

lens with af sysytem is more expensive
that why i think body with AF motor is more reasonable..

i dont know much about DSLR field yet and what i know is just only from my reading.

and i refer to you all pros here to help me

can put aside lens issue
because i need 1st step first and then thinking about lens

I guess you're shooting close-up with 35mm f/1.8 @ f/1.8?
If yes, the DOF is shallow, and if you move even a little the focus plane will change; To test this, you can try use AF-C, then focus on one area and hold it. If the lens re-focus, it means you moved a little and the focus plane changed. In this situation, using AF-C you might get less chance of OOF; BUt with AF-C, you can't focus and re-compose.

IF you're using AF-S and shooting up-close @ f/1.8, and you're using focus and re-compose, then your problem is obvious.

samples who got lured by wide aperture lens but donno how to control it...   f/1.2 also doesnt mean u must shoot at the widest 

thats why its good to have more focus points.
if i got all the time in world, i put in AF-C and move the single focus point to where i want it to be.

yeah..+1 for your opinion.
i want to go further in this field..and for starting, i prefer not so basic dslr like d3100.even it got so many added value and many features.most of the ex user of d3100 tend to sell after 6monts to 1 year usage to upgrade because already familiar.if i got so much money, its ok for me to upgrade in the short period of time. but im not that kind of rich person..

with this kind of budget, what is the best for 2nd hand DSLR..

depends on your copy or lens la. I mean there is a certain setting for each lens like for my 50mm 1.8 ii can get fairly sharp at f2.2 but bit soft at f1.8

No it is not your eye problem it is soft.
I did crop and do some akward stuffs on it. therefore it looks soft. 

what would u all choose between 35mm f1.8 vs nissin di866? which one will u all buy 1st?
