tamron

ahpingko : Try to consider Tamron 18-270mm. It highly rated. But never know alpha user using this one.

Never buy Sigma 28-300mm( i used to own one). The softest travel lens, colour is dull, weird zoom rotation and prone to gear strip.

ahpingko : First things first. Do you really need the telephoto end? I used to have a SAL 18-250mm lens. Then I found that I seldom use the telephoto end and I am more prone to shooting wide than anything else.

So I sold off the lens and I don't miss it at all. Not even when I go travelling. If you don't need the tele end, if would be better to get the Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 which would prove more useful and give you better IQ than a super zoom.

But of course you need to really know if you need the tele end or not.

67zai: If not for the post-processing in #2 it wouldn't be special.

shukrie: Could have eye contact? Picture lacks intensity.

Codyx: Could get a less chaotic background.

ahpingko: Try Leos Com Trading, 1st floor, Ampang Park, next to the escalator.

The Tamron 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 DiII isn't as good as the Tamron 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DiII. There are Sony versions of the 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 DT and 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DT. The Sony 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DT focuses faster with less turns for screw-drive.

ahpingko: Samyang lens! maybe cjlai has. I saw in LYN Garage Sale, some guy sell all the Samyang lens from 8mm to 85mm. U can try there.



If can wait n try the new SAL1650f2.8 SSM from Sony!

EvanKeat : The SAL1650f2.8 SSM would be much more pricey than the Tamron 17-50mm f2.8

The SSM designation made sure of that! If you have the budget however, then by all means. I'm sure it'll be a great walkabout lens for APS-C bodies.

Yea, approximately more than 1680Z too

Yeah....no choice the whole event is chaotic
all the subjects taken are ramdom event coverage...tried to crop out the background as polite as i could edi

wait till i get a proper personal shoot

thanks

I think it would be price around RM 2k-2.5k comparing the MRSP between the body and the kit lens. Not sure how much the Tamron 17-50mm. But solid weather / rain / ice proof and silent / fast motor

Check out Sony Style Malaysia website, the first page. Special surprise tomorrow

So is it good? was bored so pick some pictures to play. Duno wat or where to shoot ):

does anyone know the 2nd hand price for sony flash f43?

Special Price announcement of A77, A65, NEX-7 and NEX-5N

Anyway someone has just listed the price for NEX-5N

NEX-5N + 18-55mm (NEX-5N K) RM 2599
NEX-5N + 18-55mm and 16mm (NEX-5N D) RM 2999

Everyone get ready cash, credit card and whatever!!

Rain proof + SSM sure not cheap ma

If I use the 16-50 ssm on my a850 then weather proof also ma

lwliam: don mislead ppl with "my a850". XP or is it real?

67zai: Nolah not good, nothing special. As far as I know nobody selling second-hand F43. First-hand RM7xx.

lwliam: Congratulations!
