want to check my shutter counter and some exif info's in RAW files.

myshuttercount.com is fine, but uploading the RAW file onto it is a pain.

Celciuz can open a new thread titled "My First Camera/DSLR Picture" and become TS there .. hahaha.
Was that first shot from D90? .. your first camera is D90 ah?

f5calvin, they still look good to me.
To me, I feel like the D700 or any FX body will have edge anyhow.

Anyway, just to add some stuff to the discussion, maybe it is because of the metering?
I have never used an FX body or Nano+Gold ring lenses. . But both 70-200 and 24-70 are already awesome lenses to start with.

From the two pics, below is what i gathered from the flickr EXIF.

d700 pic
----------
1/1000
f/2.8
110mm (110mm effective on 35mm)
ISO 800
0 EV
Shutter Priority Mode
Center-weighted average
Lens 70-200mm f/2.8

d5100 pic
-----------
1/800
f/3.5
58mm (87mm effective on 35mm)
ISO 640
0 EV
Aperture Priority Mode
Multi-Segment (Matrix)
24.0-70.0 mm f/2.8

potentially right too.

awww ... the phone is also nice to play with too ..hehe.

have to live with my aging SGSL ... *sob* ...

- How much r u willing to spend? ---> close up or extension tubes are the cheapest route.
- What kind of pictures r u interested to take? ---> may determine your interested focal length or DOF that u r looking for.
- What lens do u alrdy have? ---> potentially just add close up lens or extension tubes.
- Ready/Willing to use tripods when doing macro shots? ---> VR may help you if u want to do handheld shots.
- If go by macro lens, willing to use manual or do u want auto focus? ---> I'm using tamron SP AF 90 (no VR lens) and sometimes pair with Raynox & tripod ... I do try them with extension tubes too (macro+ET+raynox). But I don't have nice pics to share.. hehe. I'm noob.

There r many options out there. Macro lens, close up lens like raynox or others, extension tubes or ... a combination of these three for a supper macro works! hehe
I'm also a newbie ...

pic spam :

Which one looks nice/appealing to you guys eh?
Was playing around with single light source, editing and tones/colors.

anyone actively using CTO color gels? any suggestion which one to buy?
feel like want to try it.

Just for fun and creativity ... looks cool if the effect done right. And the skin tones looks nice too.

sb700 alrdy comes with 2 gel covers (orange+green).

Ooh cool. I shud get Lee brand is it? From what I read and saw on Youtube, they mostly recommend Lee.

... but I'm not in the picture? (means not all the penang kaki in there yet) ... haha ...
haih no time to join liao.

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

If you don't mind, can check my thread and signature below. I'm selling Yongnuo YN-560II and YN-565EX ... brand new and several units in stock ready to be shipped.
Thanks.

I'm using Nissin Di622MII myself and a yongnuo YN-560. The Nissin is not bad at all for a start and low cost budget, of course can't compete with SB speedlites lor. Nissin Di622MII works fine with Yonguo RF-602/603 triggers too.
*Though I'm selling the YN-560II and YN-565EX, I haven't tried them individually yet. Haha. Just selling as part time. But from the looks, features and reviews, I'm inclined to the 565EX myself.

not sure ..havent put them side by side. But from what I see, i feel they are the same. Because on monitor was warmer (normal desktop LCD) and the other was cooler+bright (LED laptop monitor). The warmer becomes cooler and the cooler becomes warmer. I'll get them side by side and see ...huhu.
But overall, I'm starting to like the calibrated colors more on both monitors.

kit lens keep in drybox ..and sell off with body during upgrade ... hihi.
