hi D800/D800E users... i have a question smile.gif

can i install a FX lens on the D800 then manually set the camera to DX mode so i get the FOV of a crop sensor (105mm -> 157.5mm)?

the DX mode will produce 15mp pictures rite?
*
If if produces lower MP photos, isn't it the same if u shoot at full MP then crop it?

D3200 la as a start or D5100 if got more budget (but they are more or less about same price dy). smile.gif
Else, D7k for sure .. hehe. D3200 i think about RM2200-2250 with kit.
What's ur budget anyway.

For D3200 and D5100, both have flip out LCD like Sony NEX F3?
yea budget is also main problem as i dont want to spend more than RM 1.7k for that biggrin.gif hehehe....

Hey.. after reading all the reviews from the internet, i have finally make up my mind to go with Nikon D5100.
Can anyone please tell me that im making the right decision so that i could purchase it tomorrow with no regret  tongue.gif
Btw.. there's this FOTO EDAR shop where located at BB Plaza offering me RM1900 with kits lens.
Is this shop recommended? because this is the cheapest price i can get so far and im afraid that it was AP nor Ori

Last question, HOW AND WHAT is the MUST DO thing when purchasing a DSLR?

inb4, im totally newbie  biggrin.gif

why d90? bcz of built-in AF motor on the body which will help u save more $$ when buying lens if u improve too quickly..

WHY D3200 and WHY D90?
please specify the reason  icon_question.gif
*
D3200 has more pixels..which will help a lot when u wanna crop ur photos , giving u more details..
D3200 has better control in video mode that is the same as D800 or D7000( i forgot which one)
bt d3200 a little more costly..

Just go with d5100, the d3200 more megapixel not really important since u arent print large image, the 5100 flip screen is way better than the d90 and d3200

Only go for d90 if u have the budget.

Go with the one u like, all dslr can capture beauty image, depend on u wan to learn or not only. Go shop hold both, feel it urself which suit u , buy it and keep on shooting =D

more MP is important if u wanna crop.. thumbup.gif
difference on rm200 is fine..bt im using d5100..not much complaints bout it though.. thumbup.gif

35mm and 85mm f/1.8g.. icon_rolleyes.gif
street use 35mm and 85mm.. portrait use 85mm.. thumbup.gif
btw, 40mm not much bokeh..that's y 35mm is nice..bt 35mm bokeh is a little harsh..bt acceptable for me..
