I've always been using Sandisk~
I think you can try contacting solarwing in Garage Sales, good seller~ (sorry if I misspelled the name haha, don't really remember)

Aiyo, BB1M vouchers don't use to buy SD card bro, use it for external HDD better brows.gif
You'll need it after you start shooting (even so when you start shooting RAW)  icon_rolleyes.gif

So far the only significant thing I noticed between using a fast and slow card is that it lags/ doesn't lag when browsing through photos laugh.gif
Even with a fast SD card, I still sometimes get writing lags if I shoot too fast haha.. doesn't happen with CF card though  hmm.gif
Maybe my SD card still not fast enough

cf card need adapter isnt it? lol sorry newbie here

Capture NX was pretty slow, even slower than LR. Not sure how good is this.
*
so u guys use photoshop/GIMP?

Another thing is..

I'm using kit lens 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 DX VR . And its hard to use low ISO and faster shutter speed. Usually I use around 100-320 ISO and shutter speed around 1/20-1/30sec to get a brighter image. I wondering is there any way i can increase my picture quality by using low ISO? been playing around alot sweat.gif

Err.. you don't always have to use low ISO hmm.gif
if the place is dark, then don't be afraid to bump up ISO ya icon_rolleyes.gif
Modern DSLRs are pretty good at noise performance already, so you won't really lose too much details nod.gif
Current lineups of entry-level DSLRs can perform decently up to ISO3200 icon_rolleyes.gif

Try to adjust your ISO until you get a shutter speed of 1/50 or faster so you don't get blurred shots  icon_rolleyes.gif

if i bump up my ISO , in the camera screen it looks nice. but when I view through my desktop, it looks like theres noise. Not so prominent. just slight noises. u can see the face is slightly grainy-ish. haha doh.gif

Get a 35mm F/1.8G or 50 mm f/1.8g.  rclxms.gif
I think D5200 in ISO 1000 still acceptable. Do some touch up in LR to look better. (Copied advise from [PF T.J.])  whistling.gif

yeah planning to get either one of them soon. LR= lightroom is it?

ChaosSixth, LR5 should be very easy to find, if you know what I mean brows.gif
Of course, LR4 is equally good, if you don't have a very powerful rig. LR5 is slower in many ways, especially if you are doing intensive editing  icon_rolleyes.gif

downloading LR5 now by toron brows.gif

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Mar 31 2014, 03:22 PM)
Slow export might be due to USB2.0 or slow HDD  nod.gif
Upgrading to SSD or hybrid SSD/HDD will improve performance by alot icon_rolleyes.gif

Ops, didn't see your rig specifications just now laugh.gif
Yeah, performance should be decent, even with RAW photos, just remember to set your HDD as scratch disk, that will reduce lag alot laugh.gif

scratch disk? ohmy.gif

I'm not really sure, but based on my understanding, Lightroom and Photoshop requires some space to read and write data... so even if you have a blazing fast SSD but not much space in it, it'll still be slower than a HDD nod.gif
And there are also sayings that there's a limit to how much these storage drives can withstands the constant writing/reading  hmm.gif
*
Then I better install the LR into my HDD rather than my SSD hmm.gif

Any reason for asking?
SSDs can withstand quite high read write. Should not have to worry too much.

You don't constantly do photo editing 24/7 do you?  biggrin.gif

ya lor. not 24/7 la do editing haha
