Rain will loosen the adhesive meh? 

Aren't these things supposed to be weatherproof?

IMO, camera replacement part/accessories most of them the pricing is unreasonable.

Last Sunday i saw the Nikon remote pricing, ridiculous high, just a button for shutter, RM290.
I just use my handphone to remote only...  

DSLR is D3200...but Nikon shutter remote is universal, even u bought genuine remote is same for all Nikon DSLR.

Phone wise, galaxy S4...this phone got IR transmitter, just download free apps from google play then tata...

Maybe i read the price wrongly...

The remote is genuine Nikon part, saw from camera shop.

Maybe just RM29.00, not 290...

50 1.4G i think..  D would be fine too..see which one sharper.
ya right.. i almost forgot bout that. bt that's from crop body rite? if FF i think 1/80 enuf.

haha jelly you all can buy unlimited lenses 

105mm F2.8 VR sifu   
Can also be used to shoot lengloi portraits during car shows also   

i tot u bought MBP 15 inch?
CY sifu has his 85mm 1.4G bokeh king.. i dun think he will shoot at 2.8 for portrait la..haha..

btw i see 200mm 1.8 photos.. bokeh is mad creamy bt then it looks super fake most of the time. 
200mm 2.8 enuf.

the restaurant there is closed, but not sure about access to public
the distance required to use 200mm is crazily far, unless you are doing half body shoot or headshot only

85 1.4/1.8 on the other hand has better balance between bokeh and DOF

found this god lens for sell in facebook

quite cheap i guess

On what body? It helps to remember to use the cross sensors. In terms of speed, not all AF-S motors are created equal. The ones on the 24mm f/1.4, 35mm f/1.4 and 85mm f/1.4 are one of the slowest. 

Didn't have the 20mm f/2.8 before. I still have the AF-D 20-35mm f/2.8 zoom though. Obsolete and Nikon replaced it with AF-S 17-35mm f/2.8 and now the AF-S 16-35mm f/4 VR.

Anyway, nice lens and spend most of it's time on my D700 as my walkabout lens. Now on the D800, I use the 14-24mm f/2.8 and interchange it with the 24-70mm f/2.8.
Don't know if it's correct or not but I guess there are different grades / sizes of AF-S motors. I guess the 24mm f/1.4, 35mm f/1.4 and 85mm f/1.4 are using same motor?

I do know however that the AF-S motor in the 17-35mm f/2.8 and the AF-S 80-200mm f/2.8 are the same. I know the AF-S 80-200mm f/2.8 has blinding speed on AF but I guess the same also for the 17-35mm f/2.8? No chance to test that.

blower blow away the dust? usually they dont stick after you wiped.

Damn jelly your lens collection sifu haha   
I've never really tried shining with torch, but I do noticed that a used (not 1st time) lenspen or microfibre cloths will sometimes add more dust/microparticles onto the lens as you clean

Have to use blower to blow them off...

But seriously sometimes I wonder how dust got into the inner lens even when a UV filter is used 

The 70-200mm f/4 VR is sharp, light and has better VR. The 70-200mm f/2.8 VR 1 vignettes wide open on full frame sensors. But then again, for what you're shooting, you're seldom shooting at f/2.8. So no worries there.

f/2.8 allows you to stack a 1.4x TC or 1.7x TC or even 2.0x TC if you dare for the added reach. The f/4 lens perhaps only allow 1.4x TC before it becomes too dark.

Anyway, if a slight increase in budget is allowed, the newly revised AF-S 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6 ED VR is nice. Great optics and flexibility.

On a side note, you should have gotten a lens instead of getting a Nikon body. Nikon lenses have international warranty.
You're speaking about the external glass surface and not the lens internals? Because lens internals surely got these microdust when you shine your torch.

I believe the "problem" you're having is your lenspen and microfiber cloth not clean. That's the issue with using them. If you want them to be perfect, you need to wash your microfiber cloth or buy a new lenspen when it gets dirty. I get around this by using ordinary lens fluid cleaner and with a soft good quality normal tissue paper. With tissue paper, it's always new and you don't get this microdust issue when you clean your lenses. That's what I do lah.

Anyway, the microdust is a very small matter as it exist everywhere and does not affect anything.

Anyone here bought DF? I went to Batu Caves this morning to shoot Thaipusam and I must say the DF looks sexy in real life (albeit the stupid pricing and low specs )

it does looks good imo, but the looks definitely doesn't worth that much. it's like buying a myvi then put on GTR bodykit on it and sell at rm200k. didn't see any a7 today though tons of 1Ds/ D4 and leica.

but most mirrorless don't focus as well as DSLR and there's not many good tele lenses for them also. that's the only 2 points that holding me back from changing to fuji

speed for stills it's alright, but lets say you want to track something, then mirrorless can't do that well. oh you want to get it solely for travel? then of course you won't be needing a 70-200 

No worries man, I feel the same way as you do
Which is why there are two categories of street photographers - those who prefer short primes i.e. 35mm/50mm; and those who prefer sniper lenses i.e. 70-200 etc.
The former prefers blending into the environment; whereas the latter prefers the candid moment. There is no right or wrong actually, it all depends on your shooting style

I find myself very shy when I try to shoot street shots in Malaysia, probably because I'm also afraid of being mugged apart from being scolded haha
But I had no problems shooting in Singapore an Hong Kong.. maybe the environment will affect the shooting too 

Same here, I believe I will be able to shoot more with a Fuji too since its smaller and less obvious~
The 24-70mm is a great lens, but definitely not suitable for street or candid shots since its so big and catches attention too easily Though I still took my street shots witht he 24-70 in Hong Kong- not that I have a choice haha 

Personally I think with your current lens setup, you won't really need the 24-70 anymore yo haha
