3. TS

warranty card should be issued by Nikon (Malaysia) and not some self printed warranty (shop own warranty)
or, give nikon centre a call to ask whether that particular shop that you are about to get the camera from is an authorised dealer or not.

as for second hand, do check the condition of the camera. new and mint condition has a huge difference. there should be a clear sticker on the LCD screen. etc etc...

i am not so worried about things like this actually. i am more worried about the accessories that you are being forced to buy. filter for rm 200. memory card for rm 100. and stuffs like that. some sellers even tell you that there is currently no stock and will advice you to place a deposit of rm 200 (non refundable) then when the camera arrives, they will say oh nikon raise the price to rm 4400 etc.

i have even come across sellers who took out the battery and charger and tell the buyers that the camera do not come with these 2 items and ask the buyer to pay rm 500 for these 2 items.

some will exchange the original battery to a fake/OEM battery.

man, i have loads of stories like this from my students. but biasa lah. students kena cheat.

nikon centre have a list of authorised nikon dealer.
ask them.

but usual shops like J-One, Fotokem, Shangrila, Keycolor, Boeing they are fine. most shops are fine except for those in *coughlowyatcough*

but as i have said, besides grey set, there are thousands of other ways a shop can 'cheat' a customer.

have you seen a fake hoya?
how do you differentiate an original battery and a fake battery?
fake sandisk card anyone?

i know all these because of the stories my students came back to tell me. so i learn from them and inform the future batch of students on what to beware of.

eh no fake lens.
fake sandisk and fake hoya and fake battery i have seen.

I let my 35mm 1.8 go naked

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

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

I'm thinking of upgrading my 1.8 to a 1.4, is the sigma any better than the nikkor G?
Tested it once @ the shops, but i find the focus ring is very tight and mounting if not as smooth compared to nikkor on nikon.
anybody wanna poison me?

any taker for my 1.8?

Good build
Micro-adjustment?(no worry for back/front focus?)
Able to use fx and dx lens(built in motor)
Able to allow me to use for long term period - 3 years
Good LCD
Faster focus speed than D3100
