From your photos, looks like you can use a little more zoom range at the tele end. Haha. Anyway, If you lower your Jpeg settings to normal instead of fine, you can take almost double I believe with no perceivable loss in quality. But test for yourself first la...

try this may help u in long distance concert  drool.gif

Sigma APO 50-500mm f4-6.3 EX DG/HSM = RM3850

The dark side is strong. I made a mistake earlier saying that boeing quoted me RM2400 for the d50. Actually, they quoted RM3400 for the d70s. So the price difference is RM1000.

For low light shots, you really need a fast lens like f2.8, unless of course you have front row seats.

So where do u get RM2400 for D50? at Boieng?

Photo Shangrilla, Gnd Floor Sg Wang. Look for indian guy named syed, or sayed, or something like that.

QUOTE(richx @ Apr 26 2006, 12:58 PM)
Yeap, I would say the D70 is a better buy than the D50 - partly because the DX 18-70 makes it all worth it.

But I already bought the d50 wor... how? tongue.gif
