Foto Selangor still offers the unbeaten-able price compared with other local shops?

Nikon Rumors also has source saying D3s and D700 replacement to be announced on 24th August... and... and... made in Malaysia?

It still ships back to Japan for QC (hopefully) and packaging before distributing to other countries. Good example, Inter processor. Unless factory sneak-out-items la... that also if Nikon doing R&D in Malaysia which I doubt.

Any chances of seeing refreshed model or replacement for SB-900? What do you guys think?

When using flash for shooting, did you all able or always balance the metering to 0?

I still yet to understand on how to use the metering when shooting with flash

Could we put it this way, to make things simpler for both the camera + flash and the photog, set the metering to Matrix Metering and that should be able to pull out most of it?

Particularly in events where movements are quick where you even have sufficient time to lock your focus therefore you'll need to act fast too. In this kind of situation, how would you configure your camera and flash?

I would like to get clarification, guidance and tips on this too, when and how we should adjust the Exposure Compensation (+/- EV).

Some senior actually advised me not to always review on the photos after snapping, look unprofessional

Why not get familiar with your kit lens first before prime? What reason(s) support your decision to get the prime? Care to share out?

For this, probably because the 50mm cheaper than 35mm kua...

I would like to recommend you to get the BG as well since you expecting to take lots of portraiture

Flashgun may be not necessary, but it's good to have especially when you're shooting in low lights area.

I'll be getting a 50mm f/1.8G this weekend. Finally after the long waits

OK, basic facts first.

Auto-Focus will work if EITHER body OR lens has motor built-in.

In your situation, your D7000 HAS motor built-in.

Therefore, EITHER G (with motor) OR D (without motor) will WORK on your DSLR with AUTO-FOCUS.

So, you're not worried about getting the G or D.

And if you're asking why people still recommend G even thou you could have get the cheaper version D, it's because G is able to provide sharper image compared with the D. Nothing to do with the motor built-in, but because G has a better glass construction.



Have you familiarize with your 18-105 kit lens?

Wow, one year with kit lens only. Ok ok... that should make sense

Well, if you never try any bokeh lens before and you wanted to achieve such effect, the 50mm f/1.8G will feel like another new horizon for you when you're experiencing it

Sometime, not everything related to skill although it is one big chunk of overall

Like kayshoun said, you should be on the right pick for 50mm f/1.8G instead of 35mm f/1.8G for bokehness.

I still have no idea what celciuz and Andy214 are discussing about

Inaccurate focus issue causing muddy (blur image as in taken via digital zoom by PnS or handphone look-like) ?

Boleh pakai?

MB-D11 made in China.

Anyone can confirm with me this, MB-D11 for D7000 is Made in China, right? Or only mine is the unique one?

If you buy body with kit lens, then you can straight away shoot once you bought it.

If you buy body only, then you will need to purchase the lens separately (any lens as long as it fits Nikon's mount) to start shooting.

Buying lens is pretty subjective, it depends on what you want actually

Just bought 2nd SB-900 today at RM1350? Since buying quite some stuff, managed to get further RM50 discount on the flashgun

Weight and size can be very subjective, I stills find the D7000 small and light

Can't say it's my favourite yet, but managed to get good prices from there compared with other shops

OK, let's get this back on track.

Can we start with how to get accurate skin tone? Some of my photos taken in an event recently turned out to be yellowish like kena sunset sun

I tried to use spot metering, but then it'll overblown the photo. Any guide and tips on this?

RM990 @ Foto Selangor. May able to get further discount but then it lies on your negotiation skill.

Yeah, I understand the yellowish skin tone due to my WB. However, I'm not sure on how to capture the color as accurately as possible for straight out from camera photos (I remember there is a term for this, but couldn't recall ).

I'm using Matrix Metering mode all the while in the event I'm shooting. Tried to used Spot Metering, but the tendency of overblown the exposure is very high. Therefore, I kept the settings on Matrix Metering and AWB. I shoot event where movements are fast and I wouldn't be able to pace up with it if I tend to keep changing the settings

Yeah. To be exact, flash under uneven lighting. Some yellow some white.

I'm not sure if it's only me to be sceptical, I find that photos above ISO1600 on D7000 has intolerable noise. Well, I turned off both the NORMAL and HIGH ISO NR to preserve the details. Hmm... did not try on luminance setting processing with LR. Usually, what's the level of luminance to be recommended? Is there any recommended value?

Yo bro !

Well, I face the situation where the place has uneven lighting. As per mentioned above, some white and some yellowish. Given if I needed to handover the photos as soon as the event over, how would be the best method to capture the color tone as accurately as possible in a fast moving event?
