Discovery of NEW hidden function~!!!

No longer you will complain that in-camera stabilization can't be viewed in-action compared to in-lens stabilization.

On the A77 (not sure about A65, A33, A55, A35), press the DoF preview button (I've set it to Shot Result Preview) and voila! Real-time stabilization.

.......

Or are my eyes playing tricks on me?

Added on November 22, 2011, 2:00 amBecause once upon a time (specifically A700's time), the public has criticized Sony for not putting a top LCD panel on a semi-pro body - because Canon and Nikon semi-pros has them. And when the A850 and A900 came out with it's so-so top LCD panel, Sony got hammered again for not putting a proper one.

But today, there's not much need for the top LCD panel due to swivel-screens and in-EVF information availability. But just to please you people from complaining, they now put an actual 'normal' LCD panel - just to shut you all up.

SIMPLE, flip the lcd backside in, when ur eye is not near EVF, u can view via the top lcd.... AND it saves battery.

K... Thanks.. I'll try out when I go to buy...

And lastly, he no need dump in freebies, he got enough business already from lotsa side haha

i not even use the top lcd yet..

even without the top LCD panel...my lcd too, closed most of the time...
the information in the EVF is too much....even you can look at your shots inside the EVF after u took a paparazzi shot and don't want people to see it

Oh thanks for the info. So i would get 3 months extension? before this i was using f58 as wwell but i didnt bother to register at that time.

And apparently my model is not from Malaysia...since i was one of the earliest adopters of the F58.. i wonder where did that shop got my stock from...

ehh..i registered my f58s but did not get extended warranty

hey guys, where can i get a new hood for beercan?..the hood so small...can pasang petal hood like those G lens??..lol

the front element wont turn mer?

Would like to know which is better:

SAL 18-250 or

TAMRON 18-270

Thanks

I think that the Tamron 18-270 has been replaced with the newer 18-270 PZD which is more expensive but offers better quality overall.

I do not know how the prices compare between the 3 but if you do not have a budget concern and is looking for a all-in-one convenience, then go for the Tamron 18-270 PZD

6 month, i registered my 9 month late, but i forgot to change the date, it was registered from the day itself, so i got Another 1year, + 6 month extension lol!

the 6 month extension is fake one...
last time my A500's warrantee was not registered after 1 year plus...then i realised and registered it after that...
sony's official website wrote me the expired date of the warrantee is XX XX 2012...
but after i send to warrantee...at the service centre, the guy tell me that my camera's warrantee has expired...

Added on November 22, 2011, 12:39 pmi don't know much about super long zoom lens...but i think tammy 18-270 is around 2k...\
but for the price range...i think u can get a pretty nice lens with less zoom like
1) Sony 16-105 , you still got Rm 5xx extra, if u need range u can buy another 55-200sam for that price too.

2) CZ 16-80

3) Tammy 17-50 (if u dun mind range)..you still got plenty of money left...

but last time i played with 18-250...the lens is quite solid...focusing is fast but abit noisy...
no zoom creep...maybe because the lens is new.
sharpness wise...i didnt put it into pc so...i dont know

did you complain this to customer service?

no...but i dun mind now...because i sold the camera
but the lens is still with me la...

You can't do anything cause you are the one who registered late. I think when you buy the seller will key-in to some records for Sony Malaysia. Maybe they're just going according to that record. But you can try to argue with him, by showing him the date on Sony website. If its me I'll do that lah.

yes it will turn

Thanks for all the useful infor. Its nice discussing and making a decision later.
