QUOTE(cfyung85 @ Apr 6 2006, 11:32 PM) yar actually the noise prob in FZ30 oso make me hate the photos that i took. it ruined all my prom night photos bcos i forgot to set back to ISO 80 from 400 due to the previous night shot hie there, anyway planned to sell away now n sad case is that my dad dun allow me to touch with his sigma tele lens(that nikkor lens...no need to say since he said it is one of the best in its class which i dunno what he meant.sayang like gold). he put it in the air tight container together with all his F100 goodies 24-7 unless if when he wanna take photos2500-2700...is that with the 18-55mm lens or just the body??if its just the body might as well go for D70s since i heard someone in the forum said it cost 3500-3700 together with the 18-70mm lens but anyway i'll scour all the shops in sungei wang, low yat n times square tomolo n c what their package gonna offer  can post some packages and prices u scout from those 3 places. I also intend to go scout for the prices but i'm from johore ( dun ask me go SG.. passport dead!). hehe... |

i went to boeing yesterday afternoon and i get quoted for the following
Canon 350D with KIT LENS = RM2950.00 Additional Original Battery = RM230.00 Nikon D70S with Kit lens = RM3450.00 Additional Original Battery - RM180.00 Extra 1GB CF (normal speed) = RM180.00 1GB CF highspeed = RM330.00 I tested both camera and i found that D70s kit lens does much better than a 18-50mm can do on a 350D. From what i heard from the person, he recommend me 350D due to the DIGICII processor that canon possessed rather than the D70S. The color outcome is differ a lot when a photo taken. Brilliant color i would say on the canon and while on the nikon side, some photoshopped is needed. Tell me what price u get quoted. This post has been edited by Intrigue: Apr 9 2006, 08:35 PM |

QUOTE(basSist @ Apr 9 2006, 02:26 PM) i got quoted from vladimir, forumer here who sell cams. the price is OK since it is RM100+- is reasonableok o not the price? coz it included the Nikon Ori Bag cfyung85. the standard package does comes with a battery. What i put up there is additional battery. hehe.. hope can solve the confusion here. |

QUOTE(cyberkid @ Apr 9 2006, 11:09 PM) Ic, i can buy only in end of April or May, if u can wait...Wonder will it be cheaper if we buy together with bassist as well count me in also la.. i also thinking gonna get either 350D or D70s... still can't make a decision yet though i molest both of them and both satisfied me but currently is more towards 350D due to not wanting to post process each photo. if we all buy together i think will be more cheaper right? If more cheaper then good man.. We can RAMAI-RAMAI go and to count the $$... it would be HUGE 10G for boeing on that very day. i can buy maybe mid april/end of may like that.. now pocket still full of blood after invest ICE in my car ( should have invest on SLR ) |

QUOTE(cfyung85 @ Apr 10 2006, 11:28 AM) yeah...D70s is kinda hard to find sometimes. some shops oso everytime no stock another thing.. i can buy around end of april oso. wanna build some cash n 1 shot sapu everything anyway if between 350D n D70s i would go for D70s since 350D is kinda small but performance wise...very hard to say...but mostly r siding 350D 1 using CCD another 1 using CMOS... 1 6mp another 1 8mp... 1 ISO 200 another 1 ISO 100 (minimum)...  but i still side the "Dark Side" the flash SB600 if 1st hand oso need 800 bucks but can only reach ISO 1000...  but if u got the cash then can spend maybe another 500 to get the SB800 but i think i'll go again this coming saturday n ask boeing c whether they can give discount KAU KAU if we buy lots of camera (different types) or not  Canon lenses is widely available and much cheaper than Nikon lenses and hard to find. yaya... if can then we come out 1 list and let him see and get the stocks ready and go down one shot. BTW, i'm from johore. How about u guys & girls? |

QUOTE(basSist @ Apr 10 2006, 07:14 PM) My fren got jalan to get D50,D70s from Japan. and it is much more cheaper.. How secure and genuine is the jalan? If the warranty is OK from Nikon then shouldn't be any problem for us.about RM2134 and RM3151 respectively and all include kit lens. so the main problem.. the warranty is it apply to Malaysia as well. BTW, one important thing i forgot to tell u guys.. the BOEING sales person told me that CANON 350D is from japan while the Nikon D70s is from THAILAND!! |

buy slowly... since we got so many people... i think the shop that gives the best discount is gonna be rich!
haha.. i'm looking at EF 28-135mm f3.5-5.6 IS USM how much does it cost? No $$ to buy f2.8. so have to look for other alternative. |

QUOTE(ferox @ Apr 13 2006, 03:17 AM) Filter? For landscape probably all you need is a polarizer. what does a polarizer do?And btw, IS there a filter that can actually make gradient in the sky? Make the blue darker and the rest remains and not blueish? |
