QUOTE(celciuz @ Feb 10 2012, 01:49 PM) So it has to be those Chase Jarvis, Louis Pang etc level is required? I often read this that Louis Pang mentioned he bought every single Nikon's products with his own wallet and not being sponsored. And that usually come when there's debate happening between Canon vs Nikon thingy. Probably one of their procedure that we may not know, but I hardly see Louis promoting Nikon or showing off himself with Nikon. Unlike so photographer at his level, one of their introduction is their camera history which bear the big logo of Canon Then no choice lor, jump to the bright side then. |

This is a very common answer and yet the answer that only the person that using it can tell. It depends on what you want to shoot and how you want to shoot it. At certain condition or style, a 50mm may be more preferable than 35mm and vice versa.Given asking about opinion, I'll pick the 50mm at anytime than the 35mm. If to go wide, I'll go wider than 35mm. |

QUOTE(0168257061 @ Feb 10 2012, 07:14 PM) Well, the pro photog that using Canon shared that he likes Nikon system, did not mention color tone or white balance. Instead, the sharpness, ISO performance and AF system of Nikon that being mentioned.Added on February 10, 2012, 7:19 pm QUOTE(celciuz @ Feb 10 2012, 07:18 PM) Because they have contract with Canon perhaps?

Canon in Malaysia is just doing what Canon generally does for their pros worldwide.Anyway, if I get to charge a cool 5 figure for every wedding shoot, I too can buy every Nikon with my own pocket money. No sweat. |

Hey Jchue73, I got my self the 3n1 but felt it was very weird carrying it, was wondering do you use the backpack set up or the X position?Anyway, if I get to charge a cool 5 figure for every wedding shoot, I too can buy every Nikon with my own pocket money.
