For extension tube, whats the different between:
1. MACRO EXTENSION TUBE RING for NIKON DSLR & SLR, RM40
2. New AF Auto Focus Macro Extension Tube Set for Nikon DSLR (Metal), RM290

Any differences?

Great shot man, how did you do it without reflection of yourself?  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

by standing on the side tongue.gif
it helps the edge of the body there slants down, so dont get full head on reflection.

lol now i have 2 nikkor, 1 tamron, 1 sigma.  sweat.gif ROJAK when i cant get a Nano.
i think sigma AF now vy reliable d la. just test b4 buy the best thing to do. if only it has weather sealing, 50mm 1.2L and 58mm 1.4G wont be selling vy well. haha.

nano can get 28mm 1.8g tongue.gif
but then again in the age of PP, it can make the nikon 50mm 1.4 look magical...

Really nice. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try looking around if there are any stores carrying this model.
Thanks but i'm unsure it will fit my pad/tab. Kinda preparing to go for a trip so I need a slot to store my device.
Would be nice if I could get something decent for RM400 or lesser. Just Googl-ed for Kelly Moore and they do have very sleek designs but towards the feminine side. Saw only 3 products for Male, very nice but comes with a hefty price tag > USD$199.00 ... ouch haha
*
TT10 can fit tab, but i wouldnt want to as there isnt much padding.
u didnt say what lens u want to put, which obviously is the main deciding factor what bag to get...
so anyway if its not a tele lens, go for something like lowepro photo sport shoulder.

For 28mm and 35mm prime, which one is more suitable for general use lens? It is for DX camera.
*
both also are general use, just depends on what u want to shoot...both also kinda similar since on DX its obviously 42mm and 53mm...just one is obviously more than double the price being a FX lens.

else can also consider older AF-d 24mm 2.8, can find used around rm700-800...

gotta replace my aging D50 (got it on 2006 laugh.gif ) and the now defunct 18-55 first gen.
*
wah still keeping d50, only entry lvl body with built-in motor so can still use older af-d lenses.
if u still want to stick with DX, no doubt go straight D7100...
or wait later in the yr when they announce D7200 or D9000 or D400 or wtf damn nikon gonna call it whenever they release it tongue.gif

hahaha...dont want liao la..
looking at telezoom, that what i missing now

70-200 f2.8 - out of budget
70-200 f4 - need to save more but highly interest on it
70-300 - zoom power over image quality, considering it

*all nikon
*
70-300 provided its the VR version has pretty good image quality, but seems QC varies...i was lucky i got a good one.
eventually i replaced it with 70-200 and tc2.0 tongue.gif

Is it recommended to have a cpl attached full time in front of your lens?

Planning to get a filter for my lens, uv filter seems pretty worthless, thinking of just getting a cpl and attach it 24/7
*
depends what u wanna shoot.
cpl only lose 1-stop, not bad if u shooting outdoors.
