QUOTE(Chihuahua921 @ Dec 31 2012, 05:55 PM) Hi all sifus, my camera bag is growing fungus(I think the main reason is kena some spill in a party), so any effective way to stop the fungus grow again after i cleaned it? Luckily my lens&body didn't kena.  I have had spores in my bag before, just put it under the sun for a few hours and then bring it in and rub it will alcohol. Worked for mine.

QUOTE(zstan @ Dec 31 2012, 06:56 PM) there's a big difference for me. in terms of clarity and details. and then u have the a99's EVF which is slightly better than a77. and for me i use iso3200 all the time eventhough people claim its a tad worse than the a57. but how are those people comparing anyway? at full resolution? I only know that the a77 EVF is sooooooo much better than a55's. I had an a55 and when the a77 was launched I looked into the EVF and got a shock. Can't imagine the a99's. But the a77 in low light the EVF is still abit at the noisy side I must admit.

Dude c'mon man it's a public online forum. Not everyone is as smart as you to pick their camera. Stop having women temper.  Simple discussion also wanna start argument.

Sorry. Im not actually looking for a camera. Just wanted to know which will people pick because if I were to choose it'll be a tough choice since the specs and price is fairly close. Sorry and congrats on your 3rd child.

QUOTE(jimlim007 @ Jan 2 2013, 11:05 AM) guy, if i bought a variable ND filter 77mm to my 72mm SAL1650SSM, I should get the step up or step down ring? It look confuse to me as I do not know this should start from lens to body diameter or vice versa. Step up. Think of it as stepping up your lens from 72 to 77. Or step down from 72 to 62 etc.

QUOTE(shootkk @ Jan 7 2013, 02:53 PM) Nobody put a picture to 100% and go pixel peeping except for gearheads with nothing else better to do or people legitimately trying to do research on the noise level on a sensor. If you resize to screen or web viewing, you hardly see the noise. Even you print 4R also hardly see the noise. Why so afraid? Every time I go shoot at trade fairs I am using ISO 1000 at least. Go dig up my posts and see if the noise bothers you or not? Lol you cant really say that. I pixel peep to check whether it's perfectly in focus or not. Almost every shot.

QUOTE(shootkk @ Jan 8 2013, 09:44 AM) That's called checking focus.. not pixel peeping. Pixel peeping means you specifically find dark areas and then go "Ooohh... look! Noise! Arrghhhh!!! Help! I'm allergic to noise!!" When checking focus you look to see if picture is sharp or not and you don't actually look for noise. I see. Alright.

QUOTE(goldfries @ Jan 17 2013, 01:41 PM) because 16mm is wider?  I'd go for the wider than the more zoom range as well. Actually that 2mm wouldn't make a big difference right. How much is the 18135?

QUOTE(boyzone @ Jan 18 2013, 08:00 AM) I did sold my 16-80CZ and go to 16-105. Surprisingly the sharpness of 16-105 is better than 16-80CZ. Today I still keep this 16-105 even though I have bring in 16-50/2.8. This is a very good lens for travel ... wide + weight.  Agreed.I only bring one lens with me every time I travel. Sometimes 2. Together with the 50/1.4. Haven't been on a trip with the 1650/2.8 before. Not sure if 50mm is enough.

Just came back from Lost World Of Tambun. Biggest mistake EVER. Didnt do my homework so I didnt know that there were tigers there. Went with only my A77 + 1650. Left my 70300G at home  Anyways, these shots of the tigers were taken with the 1650, with 2x smart tele, cropped. Thank God I have 24mp. #1.  #2.  #3.  #4.  #5.

QUOTE(d4rkholeang3l @ Feb 2 2013, 01:16 AM) my say would be to avoid the a380. a230/a330/a380 series is not as good as the other alphas. nuff said. The sensor is just now up to par, not to forget the funny looking grip which will make ur hand painful after long hours of use. Plus, the body is a little bit too small to actually balance with tele lenses. Lack of buttons, no AEL (if i am not mistaken). It is a very very very basic camera with bad sensor and ISO performance. How I know it? My experience of owning an a230 when I first started photography. Ended up selling it off after 5 months, losing almost half it's value and I settle for older model, the a300 which is much much better than a230. I know some people gonna bash me if I continue to talk about those few models, but my advice is, skip it. You can find cheaper a200/a300/a550 which are way better and can last you longer before your urge to upgrade kicks in. Holding an a230/a330/a380 is like holding a toy camera. Just my two cents  Agree. My first camera was an a380. I wouldn't recommend it at all. I even offered to swap with an a350 that time. Can you believe it? Asking for a downgrade. Maybe get an a550 or a580 would be good. I have an a580 for sale by the way. This post has been edited by Newbieeeeee: Feb 2 2013, 02:15 PM
