i didnt find any relationship between ur statement with DSLR stuffs.

Agreed

A manufacturer can recommend a lot of things for their product.
Do we have to follow it blindly?

Eg. Nikon/Canon or whatever would also recommend you to use their charger, battery & other consumables. Do you follow?

Follow blindly of course! The dark side beckons....

how much is the diff of the d50 and d70 prices

cheapest found:

D70s RM3450
D50 RM2400

so the difference is RM1050

1k can buy a len right

like that go for d50 better
since not a pro ;p

1k can buy 2 lenses....one is telephoto AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4-5.6G, and a AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D .......so u think urself wanna go for d50 or d70 lo...ekekke

Yeah, get D50, it's good enough for beginner. Light-weighted also, and use SD card!

yaya good

maybe just use the stock len first

Is it for lowlight condition the less aperture the better? example f/1.8 compare to f/4.
telephoto AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4-5.6G good enough for low light concert?

of course, the smaller aperture f no (larger aperture size) can let in more light when u shoot in low light condition while you still can use a faster shutter speed to avoid handshake. Compared to f/1.8 and f/4, f/1.8 can allow more light going to the censor.

In low light condition, shutter speed, aperture size and iso has conquered the main factor. If you use AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4-5.6G shoot for low light concert, you must prepare a tripod since the aperture is not big enough to let u set a faster shutter speed. But slow shutter speed will make the image blur, then iso can help you on this...but i think 70-300 still not enough to shoot long distance concert....

omg.. shinchan also wan2 join the dark side liao...hehehe

u ve already joined?

try this may help u in long distance concert

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

Telephoto lens is just a start. Later you will ask for more... bigger apperture, with VR/IS, then best optics for the lenses...

But it's best to start with ordinary equipment to brush up the skill first. Only that you will appreciate the functionality of those expensive stuffs.

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.

RM3400.. poisoning me

bassist, you haven't even gotten your d50 right?

ya,havent.
any lobang?

hmm.. for now i still in light side playin wif film SLR XD

soon soon i will join the dark side too XD

cheers.
