QUOTE(jimmyyap03 @ Dec 24 2012, 07:29 AM) 1) Need some advise on flash, will looking for flashgun....will Yong nuo 560 or NISSIN DI622 MARK II can attach with A57 directly or need adaptor for the flash? or F43 flash will better flashgun for it? 2) Need sifu to teach how to use SP 90 1:1 macro shooting....I getting lost focus when i turn to 1:1 macro, unless i get closer to subject, how to shooting 1:1 when far to subject? tq all sifu in advance F43. The others do not have TTL. It's a pain in the ass if you're using flash for the first time and needing to use manual. The SP90 cannot do 1:1 when you're far. It has to be near to do 1:1. |

Added on December 27, 2012, 4:56 pmWhat screen protector do you all use for your a77? The top LCD how? I can't seem to find any for a77. Except for the original Sony one. Comes with a LCD + top LCD. But it costs freaking 100bucks. This post has been edited by Newbieeeeee: Dec 27 2012, 04:57 PM |

Added on December 27, 2012, 5:19 pmQUOTE(steve88 @ Dec 27 2012, 05:17 PM) Im looking for one too... original sony 1 cost rm59. looking for any other screen protector other than sony 1... I've flipped the screen in and kept in my drybox. I don't dare to take it out. The original Sony hard type* sorry didn't include that. Costs RM100. I really can't afford that man. Can I just buy a phone screen protector and cut it ah? Haha. RM5 only. This post has been edited by Newbieeeeee: Dec 27 2012, 05:19 PM |

QUOTE(sengwee1988 @ Dec 27 2012, 05:48 PM) For me, I bought the RM8 3.0 inch screen protector from dslrplaza, fits the A77 screen perfectly, not the entire screen, but the middle part where the image is shown, it fits nicely. Didn't cover the black area at the side though. top lcd didnt put screen protector. Yeap that's the problem with 3" one. I think I'm gonna cut the screen protector. Will update you all once I'm done! |

QUOTE(ieR @ Dec 27 2012, 09:08 PM) buy the sony version, btw, i brought the sony hardtype for 49.90, and i saw the price for other SP also 49.90, when it was 100? @.@ (mine was A99 hardtype, with top panel sticker fit nicely) Huh? Really? I don't know! I saw a thread in this forum selling for RM100. So I assumed its 100 lah. 49.9 at Sony Centre?

Added on December 27, 2012, 9:36 pmOkay my mistake. It's RM59 according to the website. http://www.sony.com.my/product/pck-lm3am This post has been edited by Newbieeeeee: Dec 27 2012, 09:36 PM |

QUOTE(ieR @ Dec 27 2012, 11:10 PM) hard is thicker and seem more scratch resistant... will have spacing in the middle* like pocket of air... it only sticks at corner of the SP... downside is how it react on daytime, the reflection of sky is stronger (not as if i check with LCD when i have EVF) soft is just thin film like normal SP lo~ but tough resistant to scratch also compare to those rm10 phone sticker. I see. Helpful! Btw just wondering. You people with DSLT check your pictures through EVF? =O Then the LCD? Flip in to save batt? Btw, a900 woo!! Don't call him noob la. See his shot of his new toy. Not bad what. This post has been edited by Newbieeeeee: Dec 28 2012, 12:38 AM |

I just did the micro AF adjustment test and my 50mm f/1.4 came up to -15 at f/2.8!! Is that normal? My 1650, 70300 & sp90 didn't need any though.
Edit : My 1650 requires +2.

QUOTE(d4rkholeang3l @ Dec 29 2012, 12:08 PM) that adjustment is for camera, not the lens... u compensate by adjusting the camera Yeah. But I read that different focal length is different one. Just now I tested my 1650 at 50mm f/2.8 is good. Then I used if I'm not mistaken 20-30+mm and it required me to dial in a +2. Maybe I'll just leave it in the middle. +1? 
Added on December 29, 2012, 6:15 pmWhich camera would you all choose between a57/65 and why? The only thing that a65 is better is the 24mp? This post has been edited by Newbieeeeee: Dec 29 2012, 06:15 PM |

QUOTE(8tvt @ Dec 29 2012, 07:34 PM) newbieee A65 result just similar to a77.. and ofcourse the evf is better than a57.. I see. But 57 has 12fps. 65 10fps only. Screen all the same, body same, all same. And apparently 57 has better ISO performance than 65. |

QUOTE(michael9413 @ Dec 30 2012, 07:07 AM) because A57 16MP sensor is more mature than the new 24MP on the A65... haha... it is an old sensor vs new sensor... of course the old sensor is more mature and the new sensor is slightly better now... my opinion the ISO performance of the new sensor is a stop better last time i feel like too grainy on ISO3200 but now still ok ok... never try ISO6400... as William said... the FPS does not means everything... BTW if you read properly you only get i think 8MP with 12FPS on the A57... Oh really? But yeah kind true since I never use burst anyways.
