Really? That's bad then shakehead.gif

The V1 is really simplistic compared to the V2, no mode dial, no built in flash, no command dial (has a lever for aperture/SS but meh, I like dials brows.gif ).

Looking for the SB-N5, but at the price i was quoted, its HALF of the price of the V1 leh, too bad no third party alternatives doh.gif

Here's a shot I took today using the V1, PP and cropped in lightroom.

Not mine, on loan from my cousin, planning to get one for myself in the near future.

The build quality is awsome, I dare say equivalent to the 12-24 (no moving lens tube, metal body). But the focus clutch can sometimes jam when switching from A to M.
Photo quality cannot say yet, since I'm waiting to get my D7000 this weekend, upgrading from a D5100 which i sold recently. icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

Damn, 1800 only in japan, here cheapest I got was 2200+ doh.gif But is there a service center here in Malaysia to honor that warranty though?

I was quoted RM2300 for the body only, no freebies. Cheapest I got after a week of research on prices. Their shop located at Pudu Plaza btw biggrin.gif

Impulse purchase for a lens costing RM3500?? scary weih shocking.gif

Ehh but they announced the 30mm 1.4 ART for crop bodies , price should be around 1700+ when it arrives here I believe. Not as sharp, but does the job la.

Lenstip has a review already for it, link below

Not sure leh, best to compare MTF from the same site if you wanna confirm.

DigiRev? They have video on the new art version already?

And no its not 1.8, it's a revision of the current 30mm 1.4 from sigma. Looks like the baby brother of the 35mm 1.4 art laugh.gif

LOL if you want useful information, better get it elsewhere.
I've watched many of their videos before but get the impression that most of the videos is just listing the specs out, comparing the "feel" of the camera/lens, and so on.

In the end their videos are there for the LOL factor, nice to watch if you like hearing an asian guy with a British accent brows.gif

DXO test alot of aspects of a lens like vignetting, sharpness, CA, bla bla bla. Quite useful if you're into the technical aspects of a certain lens la.
But their reviews are really technical, not much comment on the real world use of the lens.

For real world uses of lenses, blogs can help but can tend to create confusion due to the subjective nature of the review.

I usually read more than a few review websites+blogs for the lens i'm interested in, then weigh the pros and cons against my shooting style.

Most important is to keep in mind the quirks of the lens you're looking for and see whether these quirks will affect you or not. (AF speed, weird lens design, build quality, whatever you find that interests you in particular)
