approx 50mm - 70mm range, with wide aperture.

want to ask something about AF points.. those DSLR with more than 1 focus points, how much do you utilize other points other than the center point when shooting? is it a deal breaker when looking to get DSLR?

hello everyone, i just bought a new camera. the seller advised me to charge my camera up to 8 hours or 1 day before using it. my camera is gopro and it is a li-ion battery. pls advise me

highly recommended lynda.com for basic to advanced photography skills, as well as ps and lightroom skills.

unfortunately need to pay USD25. if your computer can 'memorize' the videos, then its worth more than that.

Any free course around? I am having a Samsung NX300 camera at the moment.

I think you might learn from here http://www.malaysiatraining.net/2011/11/di...y-training.html

Hope it might help you.

Hello guys, I's not sure whether this is a correct thread to ask this.

Between mirrorless and DSLR, which one is the best in term of :

1)Ergonomic (Big body is tougher?)
2)Picture quality( Will focal length affects picture quality?)
3)Long term usage (future proof or not?)
4)Ability to fit several occassions (weddings,jungle,etc)

I've read several blogs but I'm still clueless on which camera should I get. Used to own a DSLR but not mirrorless.

I've found this useful and easy tutorial for portraiture
basic points are

"Here's a checklist you can follow for your next shoot.

Hair is behind one shoulder, in front of the other
Chin is forward to create a strong jawline
Arm is lifted from the torso
Waist doesn't have any visual extenders
Shoulders are turned
Iris is seen over the whites
Nose doesn't break the line of the face"

Hey guys! I'm looking for a pre-wedding photographer that covers KL area. Any recommendations? Thanks

There are a few existing thread about mirrorless vs DSLR. U can use the search function.

1) big body not necessarily tougher.

Olympus mju series (SW) are small but shockproof. Mirrorless Fujifilm XT-1 is well built, magnesium body, so does A6000, magnesium alloy.

I understand "ergonomic" as comfortable design, functional design, and user-friendly system.

From experience, some mirrorless cams are dun have good grip and can be uncomfortable to handle for long period but many can be improved by adding handgrips.

2) Picture quality (image quality = IQ) is depending on sensor size, lens & many other factors, which can be very personal. Different people, different level of qualitative expectation. Mirrorless IQ is quite good (at least for me).

3) Technology changes every year, or every quarterly, at least. How to be future proof? The limit is your learning curve and skills. It is like buying computer/laptop/handphone. Highly subjective to personal preference.

4) Different lenses for different occasion. Body can be same.

Hi! I have this panasonic GF 6 since last year. and i seldom use. last nite i try to shoot Note5 S pen on the box, i cant get the focus on unless is further than 30cm away. thats also could hardly focus it on. I shoot it in my room with white fluorescence light.

It it the item is too small to focus it on? Kindly advice. Tq

what lens are u using?

the normal lens come with the box.

kit lens macro ability is not very good but decent
try to look up the internet the nearest distance for focus of your lens
you can now take the shot at that distance and crop the photo in-camera or software

Hi, I don't know where to post this so I'll give this thread a go. Don't mind me necroposting.

I have a manfrotto pixie evo:

And my strap is the:

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1169...strap_lite.html

As you can see, the strap comes with an arca swiss plate. If I use this plate on the camera, I cant use the tripod since it uses an allen key.

So my question is, is there such thing as a quick release plate that I can attach to the tripod so that I can use them both together? I am new to this tripod related things.

Thanks for any help.

EDIT: Is this the one I should be looking for? http://www.lazada.com.my/neewer-40mm-metal...ck-7338118.html
