Same here icon_rolleyes.gif . We need them +power macro lenses to shoot macro from afar. If you ask me, 0cm is just a gimmick and is not effective cos when you get THAT Close, there is hardly enough light to take the pic. Also these Macro lenses have magnification power so you get more closeups. thumbup.gif

The one I got was from Vitacon. Unfortunatly theres barrel distortion at the sides and maybe does not work as well as the original S3IS macro lense (500D)... whistling.gif



The Macro sifus here can advise how to correct it or make it better? unsure.gif

Eeek spider. I wouldn't dare get so near.. unless.. i had macro lens! icon_rolleyes.gif

Original S3 macro lense not much power wor..

Yeah. I wouldn't go near ANY spider except this which are my pets. They are misunderstood really and their vibrant colours actually make very good photography subjects. Too bad the blurry pics at the side....

Not very sure.. mine's the same... the ISO setting in the EXIF data is blank. But it does show the ISO setting in the camera when I press the 'display' button.

Has a front compartment as well as one at either side of the bag.Dimensions (LxWxH) 9"X6.5"X6.5". Price RM39 drool.gif

There is a rearrangeable foam wall inside with velcro sides. Enough room to house the S3 IS Sitting vertically and a few lenses+accessories at the other side. There is a mesh net underneath the cover to house other accessories. thumbup.gif

Kevinyong, it can't be hung on the waist as it does not have anything for your belt or clip to go thru. Its shoulders all the way.

I got it at the Electronics section of Carrefour Batu Pahat(yeah, not KL tongue.gif). Try the ones in KL....Subang Etc.... which have bigger electronic sections than the one here.

dai kor...i think the AEL and auto bracket is different...
the auto bracket is used to set and capture 3 pic with different exposure. the AEL is to let u lock the exposure and/or with the focus as well.

iirc, once you take a pic, the exposure will be reset back to normal

normally the AEL used with the A mode. where u set the aperature and let the cam belance the exposure. once u had see the right exposure than lock it. than re-compose ur pic the cam will auto adjust ur shutter speed to balance with exposure that u had lock.

I think you can add any filter to the conversion lens as long as it's 58mm.

This happens because Canon S3 chose to write the ISO settings without following the normal standard.

To view the real ISO, you have to use their bloody zoombrowser program. Even with that, the pics shot with Auto mode will still see "Auto" written.

Blody lazy Canon programmers! vmad.gif
