you know you want it
hahaa

Want to ask...If got 3k budget to buy some lens..which lens are worth to buy? Second hand also can...Currently I have out of lens and hope someone can helps me choose the lens...Only Nikon not sigma or tamron..

dx ? fx lens ?
dx then get 17-55 lo. Add in another 500+ can get already.

Dx...Well I'm actually got enough money for the 17-55(I had funding "bullent" in 2 years) but the problems is I still a student and how ppl look at a student that using big and professional lens??

what you shoot more ? can you cope with prime lens ? how about non fixed aperture ?

i think u'd better get a lens that'll suit FX as well..who knows u'll upgrade it?
er..better get the primes..50mm 1.4? or 35mm 1.8g? cheap n u'll like the bokeh u'll never have in zoom lenses..haha.
i hear some ppl say 50mm 1.8g has better color than 50mm 1.8d..
ur choice is either 50 or 35 lar..

dont care la what other people say,iv seen a girl using a d3s shoot her friends at hot air baloon fest. at animangaki that day saw a kid using d800+70200.
ur the one using the equipment, not others. so use the best!! )

one step nearer to D600
and my source seems very very reliable for the price

last time i recall your source said D800 around RM7-8k?

I stop photography for 1 yr and a half already. D800 launched for 1 yr and a half already ?

Hrmm...I didn't plan go for Fx in future 10 years...What I think is gear doesn't means everythings...

10 years ? quote for this. I doubt so

I also have the same thought n say won't upgrade to ff when I first bought my d5100...
But now I already change my mind n regret all my lens were for dx only...

Haha...Cause I need do something in 10 years and quite wasting money... Such as House la..Car la...and Girl la...So won't upgrade to Fx in a short time..

this is usually what people say. then soon fx bug will come haha
but hey, u might be different

"Might be" Hahaha....So what do you guys suggest lens for Dx??

It happens... I never thought I would be using a D700 just 1 year after using D90 either... LOL FX force is strong.

i also want house, now paying for car edi.. pandai2 budget la haha
it depends on whether u will upgrade later or not, cos believe me fx glass is expensive. to resell dx then go fx will cost more man
but if ur confident u stick to dx, 1755 2.8 is a great all rounder lens. if u want low light then get the 35 f2/1.8 or even the nano 28 1.8g

but if u think ur gonna go fx in the future... this one really depends on what ur gonna use ur stuff for

+100

10 years? give you 5 years max la
just like me using d70s already bising wan get new bodeh

Who knows in 2 years to come FX become like rm4000?
bt for me, 17-55 isnt really great after all..it's okay, bt not too great.why? cz u cant get nice bokeh like prime lens..n if u want landscape, u cant go super wide angle.
so..lets say rm3000.. jz have a 1855 kit lens or 18-105mm (if u havent sold it). and get 35mm/50mm prime. then get wide angle lens maybe 11-16mm? only thing lagging is super zoom lens..haha..i dun use the lens so nvm..btw i start to like the 18-105..maybe like it more than my tammy 1750..cz the extra zoom.

ONLY way to prevent from FX bug is avoid seeing sharp and bokeh-ish picture.. later u'll ask urself, why i cant do that?? lol

same here..when i bought d5100 my uncle say i'll outgrow it..din believe it..bt now i think wat he said was true..maybe cz i handle his d700 adi.
