going for flash.... and advice or model?? i know that nikon ori flash very expensive... worth or not to get 1??
The reason of thinking to get a flash is because going to decrease the value of ISO to get a clearer photo indoor...
and TTL flash are important right.. but TTL and wireless are not related right?

lol @ background

Oh yeah, flare performance is one of the main differences lah. Forgot to mention
But better quality ones like JYC PRO1-D which costs around 50bucks can already match the flare performance of B+W filters, tested side by side 

Can see the cheaper quality filter's coatings are quite dull, while higher quality coatings have a glossy sheen similar to the coatings on the actual lenses themselves.

Fruits? 

Haven't heard of this nor tried before, so can't comment. Bare minimum I would get is a Hoya HMC.

The glass supplier for the JYC's PRO1D model is Hoya also. Used for two years+ on my 17-50, did several comparisons with another guy's 17-50 with a B+W filter and another expensive brand which I forgot d, can't find any difference, neither sharpness nor flare.

Found this bayonet hood for the Nikon 1 10-30mm lens for just 9 bucks shipped from china 

Shipping took 2 months but boy does the hood make the camera look cool. 

Does the front element of the lens rotate when focusing?

I'd say get SB700 or SB910 if you can afford. Flash is a good investment and you will be using it for a long time

I dropped by SB700 from waist high for a few times when in the wild LOL, luckily its still working perfectly   

Waahhh! Most Nikonians here are really advanced with all those expensive glasses. I feel inferior

Now waiting for second-hand cheapo Tamron 10-24. Can't afford the Tokina one.

Anyway, it is another monsoon season here.


I hope I can achieve better look from Tamron. This one is captured by using Nikkor 35mm 1.8G.

i still using D70s 

Dropped my sb900 on cement floor before. Heart sank at first but luckily nothing happen lol

New sigma lens!!
