plus just now someone might offer me tako luka for rm600...
i thinking sapu all...

RM600 for howmany of them?

remake of previous photo. which is better?

i think 30

D800 better buy.

50mm f/1.8G (FF prime lens) cheaper than 35mm f/1.8G DX.
The 50mm f/1.8G is sharp, better built? better bokeh? better IQ? and have distance scale.

what happens when we purchase a stolen lens? do we need to return the lens to the rightful owner?

seriously i kinda like my new technique

Yup, will keep as much evidence as i could...

It happens to my friend in Australia once. He bought a 5Dmk2 from a shop for a local retail price approximately 3k AUD(brand new price). Then 1 day police go to his house say that DSLR is a stolen unit... Luckily he still kept the receipt to prove that he bought it from a shop. Now the shop sure kantoi

Does the camera goes back to rightful owner? No idea.
What happen to my friend? He got the refund from the police.

But again, this is what happens in Australia. I have totally no idea how the system works in Malaysia.

some photographers go for different system because of certain lenses that is 'exclusive' only to that system.
i.e. Nikkor 14-24 lens. EF TSE 17mm lens. etc etc...

i like my nikon because of the 14-24. but then again, i like my canon because of the 17 TSE arrghhhh...

I'm asking for lenses such as 24-70.

My friend's 7D also can take 1080p video on just a Sandisk Ultra II. Not really a big issue for video writting, IMO shooting burst with RAW is the one that is testing the buffer and also memory card write rate.

Wrong comparison. 50mm focal length lenses are easier to manufacture which explains the lower pricing. You should compare the 35mm f/1.8G (DX) against the old 35mm f/2D (FX). FX lens are generally more pricey than DX, and you must be comparing the same focal length since different focal length have different manufacturing cost.

My friend uses a convertor to use the 14-24 on his 5Dmk2, maybe you can try it too then no need to keep 2 systems.

yeah i have heard of it. i am just waiting for this latest generation of camera. see what do they offer...

Does it give as good quality as using it on the same system? Does that mean I can use canon 24-70 on a nikon since it is cheaper lol? But i guess it will look kinda weird tho... Haha sry for the noob question here...

see how is the price of new up coming replacement first...if the body price is exceed the FF lens i wanted to get next then i rather get lens first and saving up for body next while waiting the price drop XD
under some condition:
- if the camera shop got bundle FF lens, then i might thinking get body first while using cheapo lens / the bundle lens if the price is acceptable in my budget XD
- if body is too expensive i think get 24-70 better XD

if got spare money just repair my D70s XD

the mount is not cheap. plus, you lost autofocus. i don't see the trouble. unless is canon don't have type of lens. or nikon don't have type of lens. and you really need that lens to save your life. if not, don't bother lah. get the nikkor 24-70 lah. (besides, nikkor 24-70 is nicer)

Errr... That's because Vivid does not do a single thing when you open your NEF under Lightroom. So whatever set is just placebo effect in your mind. It's the same effect like using Standard or Neutral picture style.

I think it all boils down to surface coating / treatment. Where I work in a different industry, we do a lot of surface treatment on metals that we consider company secret / proprietary information. So chances of getting more info is close to non existent.

There is a point of diminishing returns. More elements can give a lot of rise to flare.

Got... Lens mug.

The prices screams of pro price.

I rather have non pro price on a no pro or pro grade lens.

Very envious seeing SD cards selling much cheaper than CF.

Usually CF is faster. I think fastest SD is only 30MB/s.

Really? Can you share which website is this? I never knew serial numbers of lenses and camera bodies are embedded in the EXIF?

Then when you put the 50mm on a DX body, some people will find that it becomes too "long". There goes the money spent on the 50mm...

Good quality as using it on the same system? No idea but people are using Nikon's 14-24mm f/2.8 on their FF Canon bodies and getting better results than from their own Canon wide angle lenses. Does that not answer your question partially?

You can use Nikon lenses on Canon bodies. Not the other way around unfortunately since Canon have bigger mount.

The 24-70mm f/2.8 can be a little long on the D70s. Better test it out first before the 24-70mm f/2.8 becomes a white elephant investment.

The trend that I usually see is using Nikon wide angles on Canon FF bodies where you can afford to have manual focus only using hyperfocal technique. Metering works fine. On something like the 24-70mm, AF becomes more crucial.

Of course I know lor...

I think you miss the previous posting.

Agito want to upgrade to FF, D800, but worry lens price, so maybe should get lens first.

As current, he's using D70 with 35mm f/1.8G.
Seems he doesn't need zoom lens, so I suppose the one prime lens is enough for him?

So, if he move on to D800, he was asking if he can use the 35mm f/1.8G DX.

Hence, if he upgrade to FF, he can sell off his 35mm f/1.8G DX, and get the 50mm f/1.8G, which is similar as 35mm on DX body.... plus, it's cheaper and offers more...

If you want 24-70, you'll be like paying for another D700.
I thought you use mostly the 35mm f/1.8G on your D70 now?
So, if you move to FF, you get the 50mm f/1.8G, is just like what you're using now, and it's not cheapo lens.

In US, the Panasonic UHS-I offers up to 90mb/s but cost a bomb.


Urm... no... 50mm is put of FF body. Didn't ask him to buy 50mm now.
I said, when he upgrade FF, he can get the 50mm, which will work like his 35mm on DX.
So, he can stick to his DX and 35mm right now.
