Yup. This is particular true when u took pic of those illegal stuff. E.g. selling bag in petaling street.

That day, i went AFA, thats this cosplayer smoke very yeng outside the event place, i thought of snapping the pic, then my conscious came in, who knows that guy got a reputation to protect, since he cosplay as some good guy. hahahah i didnt take the pic. Now regretted. Butunlikely i will use that pic for any body of work, so not important

Sorry but I call them n1nj@ because like this ->

Uncivilised people is uncivilised

just tell me nicely and i wil delete it, give me middle finger

Some people are just "corky" and I stopped street photography since my horrible incident in Petaling Street. I was taking pics of some back valley barber (yeah they still exist in 2002!)

Was having fun with the shooting and the florist shop owner a few meters away threw the broom to me and shouted at me DONT SHOOT DONT SHOOT. SHOOT WHAT.. and he charged to me like a bull. I was timid that time so I just shove my camera in the bag and ran.

I was at the junction towards Pasar Seni LRT station, I can still hear him shouting, "yes keep running! you are not a guy, you have a short ***"

It was humorous and angry at the same time

Back to cars... bwahahaa.

celciuz, after putting 2x converter to ur 70-200 AF slow down obviously kah ?

Use 70-200 for street shoot lo, wont get punch by ppl

depends on what kind of perspective you want loh
70-200 to some point is good, but limited usage

Not that noticeable to me... but color contrast drop is noticeable lol.

70200VR2 + TC-20E III AF more responsive and faster than the 300mm f/4!

But then again, not all lens will work with these TC... its pretty choosy actually... but 70200 VR2 and TC20E III is a known combo that works.. if with old TC20E II performance kinda bad.

Yes, but we must always becareful to avoid anything happen; If you happen to snap some gangster, what happen? Of course, that is one of the bad scenario and most people would avoid it.

Not sure any of you listen to the ladio; There is an awareness ad, in the ad, 2 guys were having conversation about a girl, which one of the guy took with his handphone, and send it to his friend. Then the ad end with something like knowing your rights (for the girl and what she can do; I can't really remember the exact words).

I'm just sharing what I heard on the ladio, what is the new law or what are they talking about knowing your rights and privacy, I have no idea and seems can't find this information. Perhaps someone who got contact or know anything can share.

Finally, it's just a precaution and I'm just sharing what I heard.

Hey guys need ur advice on which lens to choose..
1. Nikon 35mm f1.8G
2. Nikon 50mm f1.8G
3. Tamron 17-50 f2.8 non vc

i'm seeking a cheap lens that can be used in events and also gr8 for taking portrait photos..
Also, i would like to have nice bokeh..
fyi, my camera body is D5100..

So which one is more suitable?

What lens u got now ?

Well 17-50 certainly brings more convenient for sure.

but that two 1.8 lenses definitely win in absorbing light.

your call

i'd vote for #3 then add another external flash to it.. haha~

I m using d5100 also ... 50mm seems just right. I no need go too close also and it's cheap! Got mine for around rm 500+

3, but you're going to be having issues under low light with the Tamron hunting for focus, and also focus inconsistency but it is the most versatile among all.

don't u think d5100 has too much softening? i need to go to the settings to change the sharpness because b4 that all those portrait photos i took weren't sharp at all..(bt they were not out of focus either..)
