Ken Rockwell never starts, he continues

LED light, i use it to illuminate the path when I move around :S

best if no cloud, but sometime a little bit of cloud will be interesting as well... very much depend on your composition... if you ask me, light pollution is more problematic than cloud... :S

so need to be at a place where with totally no light?

i only tried the v1 before... I prefer the color rendition from 12-24 nikkor
the only benefit from the tokki 11-16 is the 2.8 I find that it always gave me blue tint

best is totally dark until you cant see your own finger without a torch light, and the line of sight to your shooting direction as low light as possible.
the place where I shot the photo, i can only see shape of my hand barely.

Sifus,

I have a problem, When I switch on my Nikon D90 On the LCD "Err" is flashing.

dust problem? shud i send the body n lenses to service centre?

Kindly advise.

Guys, wanna ask bout the tokina 11-16mm de quality control, anyone had anyproblem with it?

http://www.tokinalens.com/support/warranty/

LOL !! DAFAK ! where u find this? ayam oso duno bout this @@ must be still new to photog ><

IMO color rendition is abit moot if you PP alot.
Read some tests about the new coatings, not much difference, flare is one of Tokina's weakness, and it's still there in V2 unfortunately.

Hi sorry for late reply... I think you have to play more with the setting to get right exposure on your moon photo.
What lens did you used?
There is some tips how to shoot moon that I wrote here:
//forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2348828&view=findpost&p=60013625

Pixelpeep? hmm so overall not much diff one rite? without PP-ing

but flare not counted bad to everyne rite? for me abit flare still okay.. the effect nice to me

the V2 and V1 just diff is motor and coating only? how bout canon eh...

@ japan just rm200 diff, so i got the V2 instead... in msia rm600 diff @@

i mainly used it on D7000 with video... not much things can do to the color grading :S
that's why prefer 12-24 ways better

oo okay, i shoot photo so shud be no prob ba..
diff very big meh ._. ?

if you shoot in RAW, there are more latitude to 'process'
video is pretty much highly compressed jpegs

but then, if you can afford, just go for the 12-24 nikkor. better in every aspect in general use.

That's what my cousin told me about the difference between his canon 10-22 and tokina 11-16,
says got difference in color but honestly i can't see any.
Maybe need to upgrade to something similar to his dell ultrasharp to see it

Doesn't bother me that much though, flare issue also, I just consider it artistic flare.


What about white balance adjustment? Possible to do that for video right?

Sometime is not convenience/or no luxury to manually adjust WB to fit the situation.
I shoot AWB 90% of the time.

oo.. i normally shoot raw... nikkor x2 the price eh 12-24 stil got meh? DXO mark don have the review one? weird.


haha... yea lo @@ diff not much ba.. ltr lemme check see

the 12-24 is priced waaaaaaaay out of budget for most people including me

RM3500 vs RM1800(tokina V1) gets you better build quality and color and some additional perks which is not worth it for people looking just for the perspective a wide angle can give like me.

Besides, 11mm and 12mm is very noticeable when compared side by side, even more so with sigma's 10mm starting point, cheaper too.

LOLLL.. this is hilarious!!!

the nikon de 12mm is lesser than real de 12mm @@

btw i got v2 for rm1800
