Censor cleaning usually take how long and what's the process like? /sorrynoobhere/

When sensors have dust it is unable ti capture the light therefore Dust spots will appear in your pictures when a small aperture is used! Very annoying >.<

Time depends on technicians and how many bodies ahead of you haha best to ask on thr spot!

I think the cleaning for events one is more 'basic'. Cause I remember my D700 and D90 x2 was both cleaned in less than 1 hour. And I know there's many other bodies lining up too!

brows.gif , spicy nope tongue.gif I'll PM you on this xD

I'm using a D7000 + Battery Grip + Tamron 17-50mm... so it is quite heavy after a while..

I did my research and purchased a Custom SLR C-Loop ( http://www.customslr.com/products/c-loop#.UI6ilm_MjEk ) whenever I am using this outdoor...

It is really handy and also easily removed the C-loop whenever I need to put my DSLR on a tripod mounting...

You will not feel the weight at all even after long usage...

Hope this helps...

that's convenient! will consider it~ thanks biggrin.gif

bored. spam. wish I have more time to shoot. really impressed with d600. def worth the price point. it's a no brainer for people who want to wait the price going down further while they actually can enjoy it NOW.

got my V1, the cute small flash really make a huge difference compare to the built in flash of my J1 (and the stock flash on OMD), very useful in small environment for bounce flash without being bulky, can stick the V1+kit lens+flash in the bag and still lightweight.

however, i couldn't believe my eyes when i start to notice most shots i took looked greenish, and upon comparing to my J1 side by side, bingo, as how CY put it - the hulk! strange thing is the EVF is much closer to the J1 in color cast maybe slightly more greenish, but the LCD is completely different, very noticeable green cast...sigh...

i suspect my V1 stock is newer as it came with newer firmware, while my J1 came with the oldest firmware. don't tell me nikon is going to transform all cameras into hulk? at least include in-camera LCD tweaking and now i'm stuck with a hulk (not that it affect my shots, they look absolutely fine on my macbook, both J1/V1 taken same shot with AWB and looked identical)... =.=

interesting thing is, when i go to the brightness setting, the grey chart seems to look fine on the V1, maybe just ever so slightly greenish, and now it makes the chart on J1 looked like it has magenta/reddish cast. hmm.gif looking at the bright side(?!?), now i have 2 different LCD with different color cast to check (cool that i can preview and enter menu using EVF, can't seems to do that with OMD). sweat.gif

nikon before said in an email response that the green tint is correct, and that older LCDs had incorrect color cast making it look cooler than it should.
btw, gx1 evf also can preview and enter menu tongue.gif

maybe what nikon did was silently inject new color profile into newer batch cameras. i can't say i prefer the green tint more...

strange thing is even in nikon 1 forum where there're lots of active members didn't even make a single noise about the LCD display cast vs the EVF. maybe people trust LCD more than EVF? i notice the OMD EVF also got strange color cast and sometimes so washed out that it looked dirty with *grey* tint. o.O

tho i wouldnt worry too much bout the lcd color cast...the newer nikon AWB is pretty good.
i would think ppl buy the V1 to use the EVF? so wont use the LCD so much?
so after this u going to sell off ur J1? tongue.gif


Added on October 30, 2012, 6:21 pmtmr i think i might drop by mid valley see the nikon roadshow...see uf got V1 at the promo price there.

dunno, at least i believe previewing and zooming using EVF to evaluate is much less convenient but useful under bright sunlight. so i can only imagine under normal situation previewing with LCD is the norm. maybe EVF just ain't so reliable for most people (wouldn't trust the color on OMD EVF either, to be frank).

might keep the J1 for rough situation or video'ing during gigs to build profile, since 2nd hand value sudah gone. biggrin.gif

the promo price is already official, everywhere selling RM1299 for kit lens and RM1899 for twin zoom lens. i probably won't be bothered with the nikon roadshow as the shop where i bought my J1 got *very* special price (more than RM200 off for twin lens), don't think they'll going to beat that? hmm.gif brows.gif

...and again i hope i did not get a lemon, or i'll need to bug the nikon to fix the color profile in the firmware (if it's ever possible).
