Guys, do you guys buy camera from retail shop like Sony/SenQ? or go for small business entity for slightly cheaper price for the camera?

Thinking to buy NEX-5T these few days, but not sure should I go Sony/SenQ or other shops for slightly cheaper price ~
Anyone bought the NEX5T?
Any good shop recommend in Penang?

Thanks. biggrin.gif

*PS. just saw about memory use for NEX5T.

**quote**
Memory StickĀ  Memory Stick PRO Duo, Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo, Memory Stick XC-HG Duo
SD Memory CardĀ  SD memory card, SDHC memory card, SDXC memory card
**unquote**

is that mean either 1 type of memory card can use dy?
I got 1 32GB micro-SD standby... seem cannot use for NEX5T?
*
For me I'll either buy from SenQ/Senheng or outside shop. SenQ/Senheng offer 3 years warranty, but sell at retail price. Outside shop offer standard Sony 15 months warranty, but cheaper.

Memory card, yeah it should mean use 1 type enough. Takkan force u to use all those cards at once laugh.gif . Micro SD if they say not supported then means not supported lor.

with standard size SD card adaptor, can. of course cannot use micro-SD bro, all camera use SD card as standard except high performance DSLR which use specific high speed card.
actually, my experience with RX1 and RX100 is only an instructional paper inside the box, asking you to register warranty online. i didn't see any specific sticker. kinda clever cause they want you to buy from trusted dealers or sony store. biggrin.gif

thanks man. I just went to Sony store and SenQ at Queensbay. Sony don't have any good offer and discount but SenQ discount RM150 and extra 2 years warranty for member. Will get 1 from SenQ.
Any idea where can i buy good quality and price of battery/tripod/casing bag in Gurney/Penang ?
Maybe some good shop can recommend?  tongue.gif

The RM150 discount applies to all branches? Applies to NEX 3N also?
Must pay how much to become member?

QUOTE(nixonyang @ Oct 12 2013, 11:21 PM)
Theres a holographic sticker underneath the camera, not sure can be forged or not but its one way to tell its ori. Also go for reputable shop la, dont just jump cause very cheap.

Ok thank you

By the way, I've got a question regarding the auto-focus on my NEX-3N. I uses spot focusing most of the time. However, I notice that recently, when I half pressing the shuttle, the focus went to dotted box over the frame instead of the square bracket in the centre. Could anyone advice?

What's dotted box over the frame?

hei, i just play around with my NEX 5T just bought 2 days ago.
some inquiries ~
the macro shot seem not as good as RX100 (i try friends before) and background defocus seem not as good as RX100 as well. izit because the F3.5 (NEX5T) and F1.8 (RX100) difference cause the background defocus differences?
but macro shot i thought NEX5T should be better than RX100? 16mm vs 28mm ?
Pros and Sifu please teach some skills ~~ biggrin.gif

Kit lens memang not that good for macro. U can try to use the smallest F number and longest focal length, better to use manual focus to make it focus properly.

Here's an example using the 16-50mm kit lens, cropped
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


If still not good enough can invest in either extension tubes, close-up filter, raynox or the best is macro lens. This thread may help https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2984344 .

Btw, would be nice if u post some RX100 comparison shots. smile.gif

Depends on what type of photography you mostly do and the effects you want. i juz get a CPL filter due to i prefer landscape and to eliminate glare and deepens the blue sky color.

some said UV filter is to protect your expansive lens, which make sense as well.

I wonder, what happens if the lens really kena scratch? How much is the repair cost?

Testing the kit lens macro capability. Comparison with Canon IXUS 230 HS mid range compact cam and Nokia Lumia 800 phone. Just for fun. smile.gif

The NEX definately got the creamiest bokeh while the IXUS got the best detail on the insect.

did you stop down while shooting with your NEX? NEX has much bigger sensor thus shallower depth of field, i didn't check the original size but on web viewing size the wings on the NEX shot is in focus and sharp while the rest seems not. shooting with big sensor one usually stop down to f8 or smaller to get more area in focus.

also it's also not accurate to compare with different subject where you can go closer to the bee (or whatever it is lol), you'll get as much detail if you fill the frame with dragonfly too. also there's another factor of perceived sharpness - try to shoot with silky smooth skin young model and old man, you'll find the old man shot has more sharp "details". tongue.gif lighting also play a role, the bee shot has better lighting where the angle of light highlighted the texture on the body.

I shot with max focal length and F5.6.

Oh ya makes sense too sweat.gif . But this dragonfly I was trying to focus on the head, where it can't really focus even with manual focus cuz I think it's too small hmm.gif . I got another shot where I focus on the body and it can focus very well.

Not that close. Snapping the whole pic of a phone, just trying. Is it considered as really close? But snapping the pic of camera using the phone looks good hmm.gif

Make sure distance between camera and phone is not less than 25cm, u can further zoom for more magnification.
