this is why i love u people

i have done those things n its still not working, n when i tried it on my fren's D700, it works fine

seems like there's a prob with my camera perhaps?

So your MB-D10 works on your friend's D700. Did you try another MB-D10 which is working on your D700 perhaps?

i did tried 2 of em (excluding mine), both are my fren's, and it works on their cameras, switch it here and there. do u think it my cameras prob then? cuz none of em works on mine haizz

to all pros, i'm now on a D60. Considering an upgrade. Am wondering is D90 still worth buying as of now the price is around rm2k? OR should I just go ahead with D7000? Difference of around RM1.3k where I can buy a 50mm 1.4G prime lens with it if I opt for D90.

In dillemma and would like to see comments from Nikon users in here.
Thanks.

this is just my opinion, go for the D7000

go d7000 + 35 1.8g
a 50 on a crop sensor becomes a 75mm edi, 35 on a crp becomes more or less 50mm.

Hi guyz. May i know what is the estimated price for 1 year Nikon D90?
My friend want to sell me his D90 for RM2,500 (i would try to nego more).
Is that worth it compare to Nikon D5100 or Nikon 600D?
Help

i suspect your camera have a contact issue.
try this:
1. remove battery and wait at least 15 mins- to clear any leftover static
2. take a small pin
3. open the contacts at the bottom of the camera where the battery grip contacts
4. slowly take the pin and 'polish the contacts, be sure not to get 2 areas into contact of each other
5, take a dry tissue and clean and oxydization or dirt that may be accumulated or removed by the pin
6. put battery back into camera then followed by the BG, then battery into the BG
7. pray that it works well before you switch it on
8. belanja me the next time we meet......

good luck !

Advance amateur and mid level beginners? Sound no big different to me
Anyway, generally for photographer and people that plan to start join the event, which camera would be better?
I like D5100. The only think that hold me is no built focus motor. Which is why i strongly consider to buy my friend D90.

Which lens do you plan on buying that requires a D90 to AF?

I think i'm gonna stick with original lens for a while which is 18-105mm kit lens.
I'm planning to use this camera for long time anyway. If i ever plan to upgrade anything, i just hope i can just upgrade the lens only.

Yes you can. All new lens have AF-S (SWM) in them, no worries of not being able to autofocus. Only issue is when you use older lens then yes that will be troublesome.

spam 2day D700 pic b4 change to D800 xD

when your D700 is up for sale, can you post it here first for your faithful nikon companions first......
and possibly some additional discount would be high appreciated....

Added on February 12, 2012, 7:14 pmhaha, just like to use different variety of words to make things alittle more exciting.....

actually it depends on your passion and knowledge, you may outgrow the entry level dslr in no time if your interest are high

some say if you buy a built-in motor camera body, you will save alot if you buy lenses that are non-motorised- true. but on the contrary, newer lenses have better quality, up dated electronics, lighter material.

suggest you look at the range of lenses you plan to use, then look at the difference in pricing between the type of lenses, and in the end if you decision is towards the non-motor lenses, then go for the D90/D7000, else the D5100 would suit you well when you use the newer AF-S G lenses., btw nikon has been updating the popular D lenses( non motor) with AF-S, so most of the lenses are already covered

btw what kind of photos would you mainly be taking?

Hey guys,

is it my cam, settings, or lens because when I take photos of subjects in front of reflective stuff like zinc fence and even leaves, the subjects well exposed but the background ruined the photo, overexposed, but some of my friend's other cameras won't have this kind of effect... so... :/

thanks for the tips. i just sent it to Nikon earlier today.

canon = good for calculator? underestimating aint so healthy.

Got a big problem wants to ask u guys...if the lens got motor build in, plug in with camera got build in motor can use??

so who wants to do this for nikon kit lens?
http://www.petapixel.com/2012/02/09/how-to...canon-kit-lens/

Added on February 12, 2012, 9:41 pmOh my haha! Because at 1st when I used it as a backpack the shoulder straps felt like it will fall anytime! Maybe because my shoulders aren't broad and I'm small in size.. That's why I didn't like the feeling of it!

Now I'm in Penang! Using the X method straps. It really is comfortable! I guess I wont be selling this bag after all. Haha! What I have inside is a book, 13 inch laptop, d7000 with bg, 70-200, 16-35, 50mm, sb700 and a gitzo 2931 been carrying it for almost 3 days now and shoulder still feels alright, but compared to the Kata 222 ul, the 222 feels much comfortable maybe because due to the shoulder straps made out of Eva foams..

Hopefully mine would last me for 5 years before it tears apart!
Penang has been raining alot lately and the weather is really hot in the afternoon..
