very2 good for night shot! recommend me..budget 2.5k digitalcamera...

Type of camera/lens/accesories : DSLR
Budget: Around 2.5k below
Your Location: KL

Type of photography u want to do : Landscape,Potrait,Candid,Travel and etc
Any specific models in mind? : A65 and A57
Any specific features u want? :

Hello! Can you all recommend me a camera that can zoom very far ? Hope you guys can help out. =)

Type of camera/lens/accesories : Compact Camera with Super ZOOM
Budget: RM500 - RM1200++
Your Location: Seremban, Kuala Lumpur
Preferable brand : Fujifilm, Nikon, Canon
Type of photography u want to do :
Any specific models in mind? : Nikon L120, L810, L510, Fujifilm HS30XR
Any specific features u want? : Zooming up to 21x, good and clear picture quality

If that is true, I wouldn't mind choosing between the 650D and 60D if the rumored 70D is selling above 4k(at least with kit lens). If it's around RM3k when it launches with the rumored features, I'll have a Skrillex hairstyle in an instant. However I don't think in the camera world there is a fixed date for model launches

I was not very sure of that, but the reviews through DigitalRevTV does sort of show the way you mentioned them Is it the same for video then? I don't mind the Auto Focus technology cause being around machines I wasn't really a fan of automated features, even car transmissions. Also by any chance, do you know how it will perform compared to the Nikon D5100? I got a friend who has it and it shoots videos pretty well

The only thing I remember that 650D wins over 600D is the touch screen, other than that I have forgotten cause I just narrowed down between 650D and 60D.

Hmm.. thank you for that advise, maybe I should start researching about the lenses too then. I've only been researching about the body noobish mistake

Sony RX100. Not selling in Malaysia yet. Haven't played with it yet but from the interweb and reviews.... it looked like a winner.

Don't know superzooms but HS30EXR is supposedly king of the hill now though not at your price range and that ORB issue (google)

There's really nothing much between Canon and Nikon... one can argue till the cow comes home but at the end of the day, its just which brand's interface and ergonomics that you prefer. I don't shoot video but seems like a lot of folks go either canon, panasonic GH2 or NEX's for video.

Anyway... at the end of the day, getting a 550D or a 7D, a D5100 or D7000 or a A77 won't make your pics, video or low light performance any different but a different lens will.

Basically i just started slr photography as all the while im using compact dsc camera. It gets really annoying as i could not take clear focus of the picture i want.

See the above post...

So... imo.

Canon 600D (cos got flippy screen=less backpain when on tripod and cheaper than 650D) or Nikon D3100/3200 with 18-55mm kit and keep the balance for ultra wide angle len (UWA) like a 2nd hand Sigma 10-20mm f4-5.6.

can anyone please recommend me a decent digital camera? budget below RM1000.

Thank you The last thing I have to do is just try it myself

Type of camera : M4/3 Camera
Budget: Below 2k
Your Location: KL
Preferable brand : Olympus, Nikon , Panasonic, Canon
Type of photography u want to do : Macro details, Potrait and all around for newbies
Any specific models in mind? : Olympus EPM1 - EPL3, Nikon J1, GF3, LX5
Any specific features u want? : Fast auto focus, Variety choice of lens, Reliable, and of course AS CHEAP AS POSSIBLE

I'm newbie in photography.. I like DSLR but its bulky and decide to pick M4/3 cuz can get same picture quality in compact size.. Interested in taking a snapshot of Gunpla's, Potrait photography, Landscape, Streets, candid snapshot.. For Nikon J1 some of my friend said it was not worth it cuz the quality is almost like EPM1 that cost 400bucks cheaper.. read it on the internet got problem on J1 battery life.. I've tried GF2 and quit attracted to the design Some said for stable body can choose Olympus but for fast AF can go for Nikon.. I like fast autofocus cuz i'm "Happy Trigger" type and like to snap a candid.. Any suggestion for below 2k budget Compact Digital Camera..

wait for Sony RX100

Sony won't be too pricey?

About 2k i guess. but if you are looking for fast Autofocus your only option is DSLR unless you are willing to invest in fast lenses.
