QUOTE(Calvin Seak @ Mar 2 2012, 03:41 PM) Is it recommended to shoot babies with flashes? Nope... but my dad took tons of my pics with his film SLR and with FLASH!!! No wonder I have the so called 'xan guang' now ._. QUOTE(Andy214 @ Mar 2 2012, 03:55 PM) Good Luck! Need a lot of patience, unless you're lucky the baby is awake and active, and behave! Hehehe How many months? Not recommended especially if newborn. Not exactly a baby... he's about 11 months old lo... plan to shoot at home... gonna be tough without flash.. but i'm considering a softbox set up if no window light... |

I wished D800 had a spec like 5Dmk3... then it will be no regret... reasonable MP count, and reasonable burst rate...

QUOTE(Everdying @ Mar 2 2012, 07:53 PM) i'm just waiting for them to announce what the D300s replacement is going to be like. Once you step into FX... DX doesn't look interesting anymore...  Don't waste time on D300s replacement, come to FX! QUOTE(gnome @ Mar 2 2012, 08:00 PM) Yeah the specs do look yummy. My friend just waiting to see if the price is right or not before jump ship to canon and ditching his D3  USD3499 versus USD3000 (D800). |

QUOTE(Tony Stark @ Mar 2 2012, 09:02 PM) the specs does look promising, but the body looks like the 7D, even the controls are almost the same. if moving from the D3 to the 5D series, one wud have to sacrifice ergonomics. i wud say i love nikon's ergonomics, n canon's video capabilities But the D800's video has improved quite a bit to be honest... I like the D800's body, ergonomics etc... but prefer the 22MP/6fps over the 36MP/4fps. |

QUOTE(makaroni @ Mar 2 2012, 10:16 PM) is it a good step to upgrade to D700 rite now? actually i use D7000 Try waiting for a while, D700 price might drop a little. But D700 and D7000... you basically gain and loose some stuffs. D700 is a better DSLR for taking photo (FX sensor), but the D7000 is newer and has more bells and whistles such as 1080p video recording. |

QUOTE(Tony Stark @ Mar 2 2012, 11:34 PM) yalor, nikon's ergonomics is so nice. hold a D700, then go hold the 5D2, u'll definitely feel the 5D2 is cheaper build (not cheaper la..maybe not as tough ) for D800 vs 5D3, maybe it comes to the user itself. see whether u nid godly MP's or faster frame rate (and also other things that they offer) Haha! Yes, Nikon body feels more robust than Canon body. *sorry to Canon fanboys here, its a personal preference thingy* I kinda like the 5Dmk3 22MP/6fps, but I belong to the dark side... so I definitely choosing the D800 over the 5Dmk3.. Just got back from the baby portraiture... wah seh damn tiring.. this is much harder than shooting mui mui chai ._. round 2 in a while... pocket wiz finally gonna see some real action xD |

QUOTE(-kytz- @ Mar 3 2012, 08:32 PM) I really do hope it's REALLY coming from a D800....if you know what I mean What is so surprising? Its not that hard to make that sort of video recording technology. Maybe in few years ago I agree la, but this is 2012 le... hahaha. |

QUOTE(Tony Stark @ Mar 3 2012, 10:08 PM) Right oso saw the 5D3's iso performance, maybe it's close as the D3s' iso I mean it's 2012 now haha Anyway, for those who shoots vertically, do u use camera strap? Cuz I find the strap is quite disturbing when shooting vertically  Hahaha! The 5Dmk3 is a new model compared to the D3s... not to mention the successor D4 is even better than the already great D3s... Yes I shoot with vertical grip and I do use a camera strap, fine with me. |

QUOTE(amduser @ Mar 5 2012, 08:49 AM) oh btw...did anyone used Beike Pro 477 tripod before? can detach the ball head of the tripod and use on the monopod? Check the screw size used, if matches then you can. Most of them uses standard screw size.. there's 2 standard.. one is the bigger one, another is the smaller one. Don't remember the exact figure. |
