How to differentiate AP and NIKON MALAYSIA warranty set.

All Nikon Malaysia set comes with warranty card like this
user posted image

The wording NIKON MALAYSIA SDN. BHD on the warranty card is the best way to identify whether it's a genuine local set. smile.gif

Buying second hand items guidance for noob tongue.gif

QUOTE(ezrasang @ Dec 1 2010, 10:06 AM)
Nobody answer? Nevermind, I will use my experiences and tell you. So if anyone would like to add further details or do some corrections, please do so  laugh.gif

Firstly, check the outlook for both Body and Lens, if you're happy with it, then proceed to the next stepsssss.  cool2.gif

For the Body:
1. check the Shutter Count, the lower the SC, the better it is, just like a car's milage. Google has a clearer explanation.
2. if the Body has motor and top LCD, make sure they both work well, it's sux if the motor doesn't work, it's sux if the top LCD can't light up.
3. test the Body with various memory cards, you don't want to have error while shooting, don't you? (sometimes it's the memory card that give trouble)
4. test Continuous shoot, will the shutter jam?  rclxub.gif
5. basically you'll have to test everything, every single functions and settings of the body, like ISO, pop-up flash, the condition of hot shoe, the buttons etc etc

As for the lens:
1. it's important that the rubber is still firm.
2. make sure it works on more than ONE Bodies.
3. play with aperture, the zoom if it has, play with it like a toy.
4. if the lens got dust and fungus inside, you can send it for cleaning.
5. if the contact points are dirty, gently use eraser to clean it.
6. if the lens is AF-S, make sure the motor inside is silent while auto focusing, no loud squeaky sound.

what else?  hmm.gif  hmm.gif

Remember, these are based on my personal experiences, correct me if I'm wrong  notworthy.gif

Ken Rockwell facts !

Ken Rockwell is the Chuck Norris of photography

Ken Rockwell's camera has similar settings to ours, except his are: P[erfect] Av[Awesome Priority Tv[Totally Awesome Priority] M[ajestic]

Ken Rockwell doesn't color correct. He adjusts your world to match his.

Sure, Ken Rockwell deletes a bad photo or two. Other people call these Pulitzers.

Ken Rockwell doesn't adjust his DOF, he changes space-time.

Circle of confusion? You might be confused. Ken Rockwell never is.

Ken Rockwell doesn't wait for the light when he shoots a landscape - the light waits for him.

Ken Rockwell never flips his camera in portrait position, he flips the earth

Ken Rockwell ordered an L-lens from Nikon, and got one.

Ken Rockwell is the only person to have photographed Jesus; unfortunately he ran out of film and had to use a piece of cloth instead.

When Ken Rockwell brackets a shot, the three versions of the photo win first place in three different categories

Before Nikon or Canon releases a camera they go to Ken and they ask him to test them, the best cameras get a Nikon sticker and the less good get a Canon sticker

Once Ken tested a camera, he said I cant even put Canon on this one,thats how Pentax was born

Rockwellian policy isn't doublethink - Ken doesn't even need to think once

Ken Rockwell doesn't use flash ever since the Nagasaki incident.

Only Ken Rockwell can take pictures of Ken Rockwell; everyone else would just get their film overexposed by the light of his genius

Ken Rockwell wanted something to distract the lesser photographers, and lo, there were ducks.

Ken Rockwell is the only one who can take self-portraits of you

Ken Rockwell's nudes were fully clothed at the time of exposure

Ken Rockwell once designed a zoom lens. You know it as the Hubble SpaceTelescope.

When Ken unpacks his CF card, it already has masterpieces on it.

Rockwell portraits are so lifelike, they have to pay taxes

On Ken Rockwell's desktop, the Trash Icon is really a link to National Geographic Magazine

Ken Rockwell spells point-and-shoot "h-a-s-s-e-l-b-l-a-d"

When Ken Rockwell went digital, National Geographic nearly went out of business because he was no longer phyically discarding photos

For every 10 shots that Ken Rockwell takes, 11 are keepers.

Ken Rockwell's digital files consist of 0's, 1's AND 2's.

Ken Rockwell never focus, everything moves into his DoF

Ken Rockwell's shots are so perfect, Adobe redesigned photoshop for him: all it consists of is a close button.

The term tripod was coined after his silhouette

Ken Rockwell never produces awful work, only work too advanced for the viewer

A certain braind of hig-end cameras was named after people noticed the quality was a lot "like a" rockwell

Ken Rockwell isn't the Chuck Norris of photography; Chuck Norris is the Ken Rockwell of martial arts.

Ken Rockwell never starts, he continues

Hi guys, I'm not so familiar with Nikon system but best friend's bro asked for it, I gotta help then. tongue.gif

He is in the UK currently and coming back soon for Summer holidays. How much does it cost for a Nikon D7000 + 18-105mm? He doesn't need all those freebies.

Just a price indication will do, especially from KL shops.

Thank you in advance! smile.gif

No differences in that case. Since there's no warranty anyways.

Nikon D7k+18-105 now around 4.1k-4.2k

For your informations, freebies can get some discount.

Like when i buy nikon d7000, i dont wan the freebies , then the boss deduct the price for me

But also have to depend on the shop whether they got do that way or not.

For eg,
Nikon sling bag if you dun want , then will discount rm15-20 for u.

I thought the Sigmalux was DX because I somehow "shadowed" my brain seeing it titled with DX in its name doh.gif

Anyway, we could send our Nikkor lens to NPSC to service, how about Sigma and Tokina? Where are we gonna send them? Do they have service centre in Malaysia? unsure.gif

I googled and rested on these address:

Audio & PhotoDistributor (F.E.) Sdn Bhd
No. 3-8C (Lots 3-19),
Jalan PJU 8/3A,
Perdana Business Centre (D19),
Bandar Damansara Perdana 47820
Petaling Jaya,Selangor.

Tel:60-3-77100050
Fax:60-3-77103372

This is our local Sigma Service Centre and they do repair + service lens like our NPSC does? unsure.gif

Planning on my next lens than my 18-105 kit on D7K. Still considering whether to pick 35mm f/2D, 50mm f/1.8D, 50mm f/1.4 or wait for the new 50mm f/1.8G if it's coming. 35mm f/1.4 definitely out of my budget.

not sure, i never heard of anyone eating it before.. It's a Tiger Oscar, a popular aquarium fish.. From Amazon.. smile.gif

Can anyone help me? I made my reflector for my flash unit out of foam like http://dslrblog.com/how-to-make-a-diy-flash-bounce-diffuser/ but mine is tilted forwards a little bit... Well the material can bounce flash, but when I use it, it just looks like another built in flash.. Is it problem with the tilting?

Initially felt so. afterward not anymore. well it depends on person thought and preference.
as for me I thought of having motor is an extra value where as having no built in motor just fine. smile.gif
because eventually you will upgrade to AF-S lenses smile.gif

The metering...

+ ..... | ..... -

To the left mean the photo is underexposed, to the right mean the photo is overexposed. Do we need to enable or disable the metering from the option? Because I'm using A mode on D7K, sometime it appears and sometime it doesn't. However, it seems to appear all the time in M mode? Which setting to always enable it? Please do correct me if I'm wrong unsure.gif

the metering only appears on M [manual] and S [shutter] priority mode..the meter is to adjust the shutter accordingly [M] or within your preferences [S].

In A or P or S mode it is always metered to balance in the middle. The only time the meter appears is that the camera is not possible to balance it for you. Say for example you shoot in broad day light at f/1.4 and your shutter limit is only 1/8000s. The shutter cannot go any faster to compensate for the overexposure. Then the camera will display the metering.

Or when you use exposure compensation I think it might appear too... (don't really recall :S been using manual most of the time)

Correct, as long as it is lit up meaning it is in focus.

i read somewhere its more preferable to get 2 smaller dryboxes than 1 big one...reason cos the air circulates easier in a smaller one so maintains humidity levels better.

anyway, getting bored...

In the example of situation you given, you mean the camera couldn't go any faster than 1/8000s and couldn't adjust the aperture when shooting in A mode therefore showing up the metering?

The metering only will be displayed when adjustment is required? Please could you elaborate more the usage of the metering? notworthy.gif

You are asking why sometimes in A mode the metering appears and sometimes not right?

I need to double check... but if I remember correctly that is the reason.

yea will only appear in Av or Tv if the camera cannot balance it...usually the easiest way around it is to use auto ISO.
if exposure compensation is used, it will always show the value its set in the meter.

yeah was tempting to own 50 1.8D and having the built in motor. but now no more. maybe for tokina 11-16 only.

it shouldn't be blink blink. green dot has to stay there. if it is blink means it is close to focus.


for metering goes for + sign means more light comes to your sensor (over)
on the other hand for - sign means less light comes to your sensor (under)

anyway just back from BTS because parents come, i tried to poisoned my dad with D5100... but BTS dun have ...anyway just wan show new beginner body are easy to use compare to my D70s hehe...
D5100 can auto focus in video mode right?
my point to poison him compare to my D70s is...
1) dun have many buttons...all setting at menu there.
2) light weight, small body, better grip?
3) bigger view finder, nicer view finder, bigger coverage....dem i also wan to change body ...kena poison bek doh.gif
4) bigger monitor, tilt screen
5) video mode, that's my point hehe... and ya i give him a good example... if use normal view cam, under bright sun light... LCD monitor is very hard to seen what you record so i tried to poison him with D5100 because got view finder if live view cannot use under strong light hehe brows.gif
6) Price?
7) VR kit lens?

anything can add for this? wan poison him more hehe brows.gif
because in before that he wan get a new camcorder, so when i saw D5100 release i think this is best chance to poison him this. hehe. (PS: he was nikon kaki before hehe)

1. It is a disadvantage and not an advantage.
2. I am not sure about this... but if compare D5100 and D90, the D90 has better grip.
3. Not sure on this point
4. Yes this is a selling point for D5100
5. Okay...
6. Hmm...
7. Well, your dad would just save the money and buy you the kit lens, no? tongue.gif

2. I am not sure about this... but if compare D5100 and D90, the D90 has better grip.
3. Not sure on this point
4. Yes this is a selling point for D5100
5. Okay...
6. Hmm...
7. Well, your dad would just save the money and buy you the kit lens, no? tongue.gif

1) he is not good in DSLR era stuff, so too many buttons is not good for him lol..he prefer simple setting like how he use film camera?
2) i was compare the grip of viewcam/ EVIL camera /non-dslr with DSLR grip hehe. tongue.gif
3) i was compare D5100 with D70s view finder... that's got huge different for people who wear spec.
6) price i also duno since dun have the price yet, estimate 2k-2.4k plus? with this price can get a good viewcam model or not? hmm.gif (nevermind, i let him decide hehe)

yeah was tempting to own 50 1.8D and having the built in motor. but now no more. maybe for tokina 11-16 only.
it shouldn't be blink blink. green dot has to stay there. if it is blink means it is close to focus.
for metering goes for + sign means more light comes to your sensor (over)
on the other hand for - sign means less light comes to your sensor (under)

Actually, I didn't get what you guys were talking about the blink blink thingy. Please enlighten me with it please?

So, it's still to the left mean overexposed and to the right mean underexposed?

D7000 is a higher range -mid end body aside of D300s...but because of new technology nikon used, many users compare D7000 with D300s, or D700(?)....

for me this is a very good crop sensor DSLR. biggrin.gif

The blink blink thingy is the FOCUS. When you look into the viewfinder, on the BOTTOM LEFT, you will see the BLINK BLINK. When it's IN FOCUS, it will be one green DOT. IF not, it will show arrow left or right, when focusing; Try to change to manual focus, this arrow will GUIDE you to turn the focus ring to focus.

If you're Canon user, then you need to consider if you're OK with the difference between both system; Or do you prefer Canon's feel, menu, etc. or Nikon?

Nikon: ...D70, D80, D90, D7000

D7000 initially place in mid end level, however due to technology constraint back in d300s era which suppose to be an equivalent class with 7d. D7000 giving more benefit in term of noise control and so on. therefore there are some people including me saying D7000 is the best DX sensor camera for the current nikon line up.

where D7000 suppose to be in the same class with 60D however in my opinion D7000 win hand down to 60D. biggrin.gif

I myself a Nikon user therefore my post might be sounds bias toward Nikon. However I try as best to not bias toward any brand.

The blink thingy referring to the focus indicator. Its a round icon in your viewfinder. When in focus it will light up.

D7000 -> 60D. But I would say that 60D is more aligned to a D5100... swivel LCD and no robust body (magnesium and weather sealing).

7D is D300s category actually. But the D300s is kinda dated... but the D7000 doesn't have the semi pro body like the D300s although sensor wise is more advance.

The metering depends on your metering mode, (e.g. Matrix, Center Weighted, and Sport Metering).
And it also depend on the situation, so the metering is suppose to be a guide/reference when you're shooting in Manual Mode. Depending on what you want to achieve, the meter is there to guide or provide as a reference.
For other modes, it will always try to get the correct (center) exposures; So in different situation you adjust the EV (Exposure Compensation), and the camera will follow the new metering.

Adjusting the EV in manual mode won't affect your picture, but it will alter metering; thus if you change the EV, and you adjust your settings (ss, aperture, iso) so the metering falls in the center, you may get wrong exposure.
In case you intended to adjust the EV in manual mode, make sure you adjust it back, else later you shoot other picture in manual mode, you wonder why your picture exposure is all out.

No; Newer products should usually be better, but if it's intended for a specific category, then it stays there; Never get confused with it's categeory/classifications.

This usually happens for automobiles; Newer car gets bigger in size, better in specs; It may be as big as the older generation which is higher in class, but that doesn't mean it's replacing that category.

B Segment: Vios, City, etc
C Segment: Altis, Civic, etc
D Segment: Camry, Accord, etc

If you see the old generation cars, they're pretty small in size, nowadays, Accord is HUGE...
Because cars keep growing in size and specs keep changes, or prices; People tend to get confused easily, especialyl when they are NOT familiar with the car.
Example: Peugeot 407, the CKD version is priced very attractively and prices brought down and specs went up; The downside? People confused by the pricing and due to european cars changes their model less frequently (the competitors already replaced with bigger models), people tend to confused and thought it's the same category and class as the Civic/Altis; But it's actually a D Segment, same as Camry and Accord.
The problem? Well, the price is closely priced to a C Segment, but it's a D Segment car and specs are better than many D Segment; So, it means, the car is very well spec and priced. BUT, when people confused and think it's a C Segment, the table turned, the price is no longer so attractive.

So, it's important not to get confused with the category of each model, as it will affect it's overall image, and it's competitors.

No, I did not.

D300S is same category as Canon's 7D
D7000 replaces D90, which is same category with Canon's 60D (which replaces 50D)
D5100 replaces D5000, which is same category with Canon's 600D (which replaces 550D)
D3100 replaces D3000, which is same category with Canon's 1100D (which replaces 1000D)


As I said in previous post before this, newer models usually improves and becomes better. You can't take D7000 and say compared it against some OLD generation outdated model that is in the higher category and say, hey this is BETTER so this should sit above it.

Hmm if I make it this way,  7D > D7000 > 60D, looks better eh?
I know it's kinda hard to justify a Nikon body of equivalent Canon, they're quite similar but not the same.

@Andy214, I guess you kinda got my question wrongly.  blush.gif

I would put it this way... D3x / 1Dsmk3 -> D3s/D3/1Dmk4 -> D700/5Dmk2 -> D300s/7D -> D7000 -> D90/60D/D5100

Actually that D7000 and D90 a bit harder to classify.. D90 is more like advanced entry.. the D7000 more like a 'lite version' of the semi pros...

Actually, this is more like personal opinion or personal classification; Just like a car, we get newer technology cars which is better in specs and so on, we may think it "should" be above this class, although it's actually belongs to this class.
D7000 specs are good, and due to the model numbering, it leads to many confusion or people to think which one it replaces.

As following the category, we can probably say it's among the best of it's class.

For me, I classify DSLR into 3 category.

Pro -> Integrated grip, single digits designation.. this one no confusion of course.

Semi Pro -> Optional battery grip, magnesium alloy body, weather seal, advance AF blablah... Eg, D700/D300s, from Canon its the 5Dmk2, 7D and 50D type..

Entry -> D3100, D5100, 1100D, 600D... only single dial... most items need to set from menu...

Now the D90/60D is more or less in similar range... dual commander dials... top LCD... sort of advance entry level..

The D7000 is the odd one out, with magnesium alloy body + weather sealing... its either the best among advance entry.. or just a 'lite' semi pro.

No, I did not.

D300S is same category as Canon's 7D
D7000 replaces D90, which is same category with Canon's 60D (which replaces 50D)
D5100 replaces D5000, which is same category with Canon's 600D (which replaces 550D)
D3100 replaces D3000, which is same category with Canon's 1100D (which replaces 1000D)
As I said in previous post before this, newer models usually improves and becomes better. You can't take D7000 and say compared it against some OLD generation outdated model that is in the higher category and say, hey this is BETTER so this should sit above it.

Dont think i can get 1/250 sec since lighting in the futsal court are pretty dim and you cant use flash. Plus I dont really like still action, prefer some panning it just that i havent done any panning in a very long time laugh.gif

Well, no harm trying to shoot at ISO 1600 or 2000.

Personally I wouldn't mind getting slightly grainy shots since it's sports, not some weddings or important occasions. In fact, I've noticed many football images taken by photojournalists were grainy because they had to shoot at high ISO at times - but still good since they've got the actions shot smile.gif

I don't know how to explain. It looks more vibrant compared to my 50mm f/1.8D. Blue supposed to be blue, red supposed to be red.

Better contrast compared to the f/1.8D? This one I not sure too haha... not much experience with the f/1.4D. Didn't like the lens cause I can't use it wide open >(

Yup, something like that, in a nutshell, I would say that the colors look flattering lar and pleasant to eyes without much of PP.

I'm not very technical with lenses, but having sharp focus wide open requires a good combo of lens and body, and also skill, right?

The most important is the lens itself. Then body is more for the focus hit rate, better AF system might hit say 9/10 not so good AF might hit maybe 6/10 or so.

Just had a small chat with my friend and he's saying he failed to get colors out from his photo. He tried VIVID mode, but he finds that AUTO will able to produce the colors even better than VIVID.

What could be the case for his scenario? He's using D7K + 18-105 kit with Kenko UV filter. He did commented that my photos colors are better than his. Well, the only different thing we have is the filter, I'm using Pro1D.

You can find many nice shot from this guy, all his shots are jpeg, if not wrong, straight out from camera, and I think he set the sharpness to 7.
I notice most of his shots are not wide open, he should be using mostly the sweet spot of those lenses.

I did ask him for samples of wife open shots with his sigma 50-150, but he never replied.

I don't think its that issue. Its either OOF or the lens is just no good at f/2.8 sharpness (I doubt lah.. at f/2.8 most primes are acceptable).

I'm using 85mm on FF and also f/1.4, I think my DOF even more shallow?

it seems like focus on the cheek. It could be focus and recompose.

His focus distance seems very close compared to yours, when focus so close, the DOF can be really shallow...

The eyes doesn't appear in focus to be, but I can't seem to figure out where the focus is. What is the EXIF info? Wide open?
More or less similar, better also is just a tiny bit. Its not like D7000 versus D300 type of differences.

Well, his shot lseems little more closer, and if he focus and recompose, it will affect his focus plane. Finally, he might also have moved a little probably before pressing the shutter.

anyway, lol, we're like playing detective or troubleshooting, haha. just my guess lah, there can be many possibilities, only the person knows best.

50mm on cropped sensor is roughly the same as 85mm on FF, having said so, the MFD difference between these 2 lenses is pretty significant.

50mm f1.4 - 0.45 metre
85mm f1.4 - 0.85 metre

So it affects the DOF too. smile.gif

But when obtaining similar field of view, 50mm on DX versus 85mm on FF.

Let's say 85mm stands 1 meter away from focus point, the 50mm would be roughly 1 meter away too right? The dof for 85m would be more shallow isn't it due to focal length.

Not necessary, for instance,

85mm f1.4 on full frame body and you are 1 metre away from the subject.
50mm f1.4 on cropped body and you are 1 metre away from the subject.

If you ignore the minor differences, you should be able to get the same field of view, but when both steps closer by half a metre

85mm f1.4 on full frame body and you are 0.5 metre away from the subject (you get OOF shot due to you went beyond the MFD)
50mm f1.4 on cropped body and you are 0.5 metre away from the subject. (you get a narrower DOF due to the nearer the subject's distance to you, the narrower the DOF except you go beyond the MFD)

Understood, but I was comparing when both lens are still within focus distance. If beyond MFD no point comparing since can't even get a lock on the focus already.

I think to help identify the problem of the picture, it doesnm't really matter if his picture have more shallow DOF than yours or vice versa. The key point here is, there is shallow DOF. For the picture that I see, I would say the DOF is shallow since its considered close up, and we're also nolt sure if he uses focus recompose technique, if yes, this further cause the problem.
Even if he did not focus and recompose, it can be he focus and lock and during framing and waiting for the moment, he move or the subject moved shifting the focus plane.
As I said, there can be many reasons, only the person knows best. From the picture, what I can say is there is shallow DOF since its close up, the rest, it depends on the technique and how the shot was taken.

Understood, but I was comparing when both lens are still within focus distance. If beyond MFD no point comparing since can't even get a lock on the focus already.
*
No point comparing both within same distance cause everyone knows obviously the 85mm f1.4 on full frame has a shallower DOF compared to 50mm f1.4 on cropped sensor body.

The reason I highlighted that MFD does affect too cause Andy214 was saying that the picture above appeared to be taken very close, so high chances the shooter went very close to the subject considering 50mm f1.4's MFD is 0.45metre allowing the shooter to go very very close. smile.gif

I think the subject moving around, shifting the focus plane may sound reasonable, especially when you are indirectly shooting her, and she will just move her face to other photogs on and off.

That's why proper communication is important. Sometimes, I will confirm my focus lock few times when the model looked at me. Tit tit tit few times if I got the time luxury, this will sometimes guarantee really tack sharp focus, even on my kitlens. tongue.gif

Some inexperienced model will move their body a tad when they pose without knowing this is bad for the photogs who just locked their focus.

PC Fair I would care less. OOF shots will go straight to the recycle bin.

But for outdoor portrait shooting where I can talk to my models, and if I want to achieve certain shots, I would tell her, "OK, look at me, I focus on your eyes... but don't move". If she moves, then I have to educate/coach her not to move much. So sometimes, it requires a few takes before I got that perfect shot with perfect focus especially if it's a complicated pose which involves movement and dynamics. It worth the effort. smile.gif

if i focus on the subject's eye and then recompose the picture. the focus point will be different already?
I am asking this because, when i use my d7000 focus on any subject and then recompose it, my focus point will be at middle( I turned on "show focus point" from the menu of d7k). Btw, i am using centered weighted metering doh.gif

Think in a 3D space. If you subject distance to you is the same, then F&R method still OK. If you have focused and then the subject moved to the back or front, then the area you want to focus is out of the focal plane and you get OOF.

About centered weighted metering, well, it has nothing to do with autofocus. It is for the automatic exposure calculation by your camera when you use A,S, and P modes to estimate the proper shutter speed, aperture and ISO in order to get a proper exposure.

Autofocus for Nikon usually got 3 modes: AF-S, AF-C, and AF-A

I know what is he referring to. D7000 can preview which AF point you used. So if you use center point, then you recompose to the side, the AF indicator still is the center point.

You must make sure that the focus lock button is not on "L" so that you can move and choose which AF point that you want.

I don't think its that issue. Its either OOF or the lens is just no good at f/2.8 sharpness (I doubt lah.. at f/2.8 most primes are acceptable).

I'm using 85mm on FF and also f/1.4, I think my DOF even more shallow?

You can find many nice shot from this guy, all his shots are jpeg, if not wrong, straight out from camera, and I think he set the sharpness to 7.
I notice most of his shots are not wide open, he should be using mostly the sweet spot of those lenses.

I did ask him for samples of wife open shots with his sigma 50-150, but he never replied.

I also want too see it too in raw even better...wut I don't understand is that only he got the nice shot the rest of the pic over there not so chun...don't know how he do it but the pic is nice...

Go menu then choose Mirror lock up , click shutter , mirror will lock up then can see the sensor , finally start blowing.

If still cannot , guess have to send to BTS.

i use auto normally and some too yellowish situation will go for K. only once i occur too bluish also using K.

sometimes mix lighting color can effect ur whole wb. i dnt know much bout wb but K always the best solution for me.

or u might use speedlight to cooler the wb but it just certain area only or needed high power flash. if direct flash, normally ur subject will be a bit overexposed.

Before all these G and N lenses, people still make amazing and great photos. So, don't let the technology hold you back. It was suppose to help and make things easier and better, BUT not holding someone back or... how do I put it... too dependent and not learning... Just like nowadays there're many tools to ease many work, but it's meant to cut down and ease the work and achieve better result, not intended for people to neglect and ignore the skills.

Sincerely speaking, how many people can tell FROM Picture alone, what lens is used, what aperture, etc? If there is a photo taken with 50mm f/1.4G vs 50mm f/1.8D, can anyone actually differentiate and tell by merely looking at the picture alone?

lens matter more in term of output where as camera for convenient. like better AF system, better metering system, more focus point, more agronomic, higher ISO capability.
lens affect color and capability to use certain aperture as well as the focal length.
good luck for your purchase thumbup.gif

I would go for the D7000. The sensor alone is why I would go for it, plus the body isn't too 'entry level' either with magnesium and weather sealing.

And if i sent to service center to calibrate? how much it will charge and how long will take? Time Square Service Center can do it rite?

Upload a photo and show where the dead pixels is, then I can advise you. Most of the time, you can just ignore it.

Can be lens or body or both. Your body working fine with other lens? If yes then it is the lens. If under warranty it is FOC.

Upload a photo and show where the dead pixels is, then I can advise you. Most of the time, you can just ignore it.
Can be lens or body or both. Your body working fine with other lens? If yes then it is the lens. If under warranty it is FOC.

Body less than 1 year but receipt lost. N lens expired. How much they 'll charge for it? Most important do I need to left my camera there for few days?

35mm f/2D = FX lens, Aperture Ring on the lens
35mm f/1.8G = DX lens, aperture to be controlled by the body

Should that be it? smile.gif

Who are we to claim a lens is nub? Even pros with D3S owns this lens.
Its cheap and does its job, and it's very useful for many situations, especially for beginner/people looking for a prime after the kitlens.

Appreciation of a lens is depends on individual, its a good buy at below RM800. I know some Canon owners wanted the 35mm at affordable price, Nikon owners got the choice, but yet its not appreciated. It may not be god-like lens, but its very good for its price, and gives opportunity for those in budget to own and use it.

Plus, as I've mentioned before, can anyone actually differentiate which picture is taken with which lens just by merely looking at the picture alone?

ermm.. wanna ask some quest..

I just saw someone post Nikon D300s body for sell at RM3350. Malaysian retail,as i know (correct me if i wrong) the price would be RM38++.00 .. He said it is imported from US ,but surely the item shown was made in thailand.. No warranty, so.... Should i buy it?

Does the warranty increase the value of D300s up to RM500(malaysian retail w/ warranty) ?

Thanks for any reply... biggrin.gif

I think he was trying to differentiate between higher end lenses and normal (so-called newbie) lenses. It's true that an N lens can produce better IQ as compared to a normal lens, no? That said, I'm not bashing normal lens, i.e. 50/1.8D, since I don't own any higher end lenses. IMO, it was just a bad choice of word. Chillax.

Bounce ceiling is too high. Use softbox/built in bounce card/demb diffuser and direct flash to model's face?

Before all these G and N lenses, people still make amazing and great photos. So, don't let the technology hold you back. It was suppose to help and make things easier and better, BUT not holding someone back or... how do I put it... too dependent and not learning... Just like nowadays there're many tools to ease many work, but it's meant to cut down and ease the work and achieve better result, not intended for people to neglect and ignore the skills.

Sincerely speaking, how many people can tell FROM Picture alone, what lens is used, what aperture, etc? If there is a photo taken with 50mm f/1.4G vs 50mm f/1.8D, can anyone actually differentiate and tell by merely looking at the picture alone?

A true masterpiece is more than just aperture/SS/ISO settings info. Factor in other variables like lighting, art direction etc which is usually a master's trade secrets which can only be obtained through years and years of practise.

Can help me ?

What is that light blue dot ?
http://dcbbs.zol.com.cn/72/657_713157.html
http://dcbbs.zol.com.cn/70/657_694524.html
http://photo.net/nikon-camera-forum/00T2zn(blue dot problem)

Okay the blue dot is normal i guess.

Here the answer, can share with 50mm 1.8D owner
Is this a 50mm/1.8D lens?
If it is, then that bluish circle is normal. The coating on the rear element of that lens is not made for digital photography. In some cases, light will thus be reflected from the sensor to the rear element and back to the sensor.
You have shown us photographic proof of this phenomenon.

Both the older 50mm F1.8 and f1.4 lens have this blue center spot when shot stopped down. Often worse on a bright but overcast day as this flare can occur regardless of direction of the sun on those days. On sunny days usually requires sun to hit the front of the lens. Only happens stopped down. I see you shot this at f16. Shoot at f8 or wider and you shouldn't see it.

The blue circular pattern is reflection from your image sensor. The sensor is like a mirror and when the shutter opens all the light entering the lens is reflected back again. I can see that you have used the 50/1.8 at f/16 which makes the problem worse. The more you stop down the more visible that reflection becomes. This is one reason why some lenses get new nano coatings on the rear element, to avoid that reflection.

My setup during PC Fair,
- Canon EOS 5D Mark II + BG-E6 loaded with 2 batts
- Canon EF 24L, 35L, 50L, 15FE, S12-24
- Canon 580exII Speedlite with diffuser
- Kirk 5D2 plate

I screw the RS7 to my Kirk plate and let it move freely during PC Fair and didn't face any issue except changing lens is slightly invonvenient or probably I'm still not used to it. Yes, it's pretty comfy compared to normal neck strap but you have to be careful that your body and lens don't bang here and there when you move around. biggrin.gif

looking at step 8, the rubber part is really attached to the body using double sided tape? so if our rubber peel off, just paste back with double sided tape la? haha very easy ma.. can tahan? or there got special double sided tape that is very powerful, industrial grade?

Same goes to current rubber on body and also lens, all using double sided tape.

the gear banging stuff makes me to think twice in getting BR strap.. mos reviews only shows when used prime lens, which not a big issue and less risky when the gear start head banging bruce.gif
yet the problems occur when mid range or telephoto lens attached, and when in starts bang bang, your gear have possibilities to bang bang boom too..

option comes to optech and voyager hmm.gif

RS4 is around Rm208, i guess shashinki.com is selling at one of the lowest price, RS7 is around RM228.. The only reason i didnt get the RS7 was the stupid buckle at the back of the strap which can dismount the strap doh.gif , want to steal your camera also easy, just unbuckle it from the back and there it goes yawn.gif
