Not sure if this is the right place to do this but how do you guys take macro of insects. Do they usually keep still long enough for you to set up?
Nice pic. Want to take pictures of aircraft but usually stuck behind a glass. Was this behind a glass too or did you manage to find some place to take a photo with nothing blocking?

Btw, are you using Tammy 90mm macro lens?

Welcome back bro
Nice shots there hehe~
Time to invest good diffuser to reduce harsh shadows 

Hi guys! I need opinions from nikon users here. I've been reading about nikon dslr in the web and learn the basic knowledge of using it (PSAM mode, composing, lenses, tip n tricks etc) and now i think im ready to do the practical part which is buying the camera and start shooting! Lol. I like to take pics of people, cats, potraits, street and maybe landscape/macro in future. I've never use dslr before, totally beginner. I got few questions that i need your honest opinions:

1. I've tight budget of rm1.5k (can add few hundreds if necessary) so i've narrow down to new D3200 and D5100 plus kitlens or secondhand D3100 plus extra lense and accesories. Which camera should i get as beginner? New D3200,D5100 or just use 1.5k to buy secondhand D3100+kitlens plus 2nd hand 35mm lens and few accesories if got balance, then shoot and learn kaw kaw until good enough to upgrade to new dslr body, which one should u guys suggest? Can 3100 produce IQ as good as d3200/5100?

2. If i'm consider to buy secondhand D3100, i MIGHT have balance money from 1.5k. Should i buy 2nd hand 35mm DX nikkor lens? Since i like to shoot potrait and people, i heard this lens can produce sharp image with good bokeh, am i right? Or do u guys have other lens or accesories that u guys want to suggest to finish 1.5k? Maybe 50mm or 85mm?

3. If u guys have rm1.5k plus minus, as a beginner, which choice would u buy?

Sorry for my england, dont know to english,lol! I've learned to retouch a few photos in lightroom and now cannot tahan to produce my own picture and process it,heheh!

Thank you in advance, hope sifus2 and nikon users here can help me to decide and support my new hobby! Yeay

Hi, is Sigma 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 II DC OS HSM worth it?
Gonna get a superzoom lenses for travelling purpose!

morning spam

can we also share what camera & lens we use when post some photo here?

Might be useful info.

Nice one there mate 
You couldn't get the antennae sharp because of shallow DoF, not flash availability
Shoot directly from the side then the antennae will be sharp
