I'm using Nikon D5100 , were try to add on some accessories.
Does the extra battery pack useful? I'm not really a heavy user.
But it looks seriously huge and gorgeous to have a bigger camera. LOL.

u mean battery grip?

handy if u have heavy lens so add battery grip to balance out the body laugh.gif

Anyone here selling I am Nikon shirt?

The ori "I am Nikon" shirt is not for sale... those u see on the market mite be fake one..

anyway.. according to Nikon Club Malaysia, only people attending their Photo 1 Class will get t-shirt....

why? becoz the Nikon HK bosses saw ppl having multiple Nikon t-shirts selling them online after getting them FOC...

.. n they r not pleased

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?

QUOTE(celciuz @ Jul 7 2012, 07:47 PM)
Differences is that, the D800/D800E does 6fps in DX mode with a grip while in FX not capable.

Hey guys, Imma be traveling to U.K [and probably going to Scotland, North Ireland, Leeds, etc] soon, I wanna know if these lenses are 'wise' to be brought along.

Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 [landscape, cityscape]
Nikon 24mm AFD f/2.8 [streets]
Nikon 50mm f/1.8 [multi purpose]

No zoom lens as I have no idea what a zoom lens will do during travel.

Edit : Or should I sub 24/50mm with a Tamron 17-50?
*
17-50 for me...

11-16 heavy yo if u r doing alot of walking sweat.gif

I've 'consulted' the TS of this thread. He said Tamron 17-50 non-VC instead of the 24mm and the 11-16.

116 is heavy eh? I haven't bought or held one before so I'm not sure yet... but going places like UK, definitely a lot of walking one.. laugh.gif I guess I'll stick to 1750 and 116 lah. and bring the 50mm I have now since it's small and light.
*
among DX lenses it is heavy la.. ~550g laugh.gif

plus it is very wide so u can expect to swap ur lens often wif ur 24mm or 50mm... (must have understanding travelmates tongue.gif)

btw, 40mm not much bokeh..that's y 35mm is nice..bt 35mm bokeh is a little harsh..bt acceptable for me..

85mm in crop sensor IMO abit tight for street shooting

Hi sifus,

i just want your opinion? What's the best ND Grad filter available around the market? I prefer ND Grad that can be adjustable (like CPL filter). Any brand that tip top for ND Grad filter? I found Hoya n B+W not so much choices around.
