NCM outing? xD

Ahh... guess I need to bring my 70200 for NCM outing tomorrow... since heading to MIMC track after that for Porsche Track day... Deploying my D700 since that track so small xD. 8fps ftw!

You just try Lightroom 4 lah, more capable imo.. or maybe CaptureNX because it reads nikon's picture control settings.. easier but less capable..

For the price, it's ok la. The sound not really a problem, the speed you can still compensate, but the main issue is the "accuracy". If you shoot events, the focus accuracy can sometimes really give you problem.

Actually there is another problem, you can google Flash over-exposure for this lens (it can go up to over 1 stop Flash over-expose), but it doesn't seems to happen for every situation. This can really ruin our shot during event shooting, all of a sudden, the flash over-expose over 1 stop, and sometimes it doesn't.

For sharpness wise, it's sharp even wide open; Those not getting the sharpness might have a bad copy with issues.

nah.. local photo club outing

i just found out that kit lens don`t do well on PC Fair , its kinda hard for subject isolation using kit lens , should had used my prime lens instead...zzzz

Ya. Bokeh not that nice too. it depends actually because you don't have much flexible and nice space for prime lens to perform.

Any recommended nice zoom lens to replace kit lens 18-105? I heard 18-200 is good. Any difference between VR1 and VR2?

How about the 24-70 range? any alternatives compared to the mighty nikon 24-70? Old nikon 24-70 lens?

zzz... dam emo la nothing to shoot , lens again failed me , but the cat walk i able to take few of them but not sharp zzz.... anyway standard 50mm should be able to take few pictures , not much space needed also unless you bringing 85mm that is...

well i always have 50mm and 85mm in d bag..
if using Dx good enuff but for Fx then need to use 105mm for catwalk

the good thing is, 85mm on Fx is +/- 50mm on Dx

Uhmm I would not suggest you to get the 18-200.. all in one lens is pretty much -.-"

The older version of the 24-70 is the 35-70 or the 28-70!

Why do you want to switch lens?? Any particular reason??

Hopefully weather will be good too! KL's weather is kinda b****y... super hot in the afternoon and after an hour rain pours like theres no tomorrow

is it? i have been shooting PC Fair with the 18-105 and 18-135 for 4years on Dx and still manage to satisfy myself..
i didnt go much for the bokeh2an cause i just wana shoot girls hahaha
then after that give them my card "check if ur pics is in my fb later"
mission accomplished!!

Because I feel the limitation of the kit lens...not so sharp etc. any suggestion

I duno how the old 35-70 and 28-70 looks like @.@

MIMC track is so crappy and weather too hot. Got bored and went back ._.

haha , i know that skill , my friend always does that and always gets the girl number and FB , haha not bad not bad , btw maybe is something wrong with my composition or what la , but i think i`ve reached the limitation of 18-105 XD , couz i not so sure la , quite hard to get sharp image when shooting in low light , ISO 800 already can see noise abit liao troll .

try shoot at +0.3 with higher ISO
