Grey set = AP

it is cheaper by few hundred but u wont get any warranty from Nikon Malaysia, so it is a bit risky. If u think tat ntg will happen in the 1st yr then u can also try the grey set for cheaper price

ok...thanks for u guys advice ^^..

is 100mm focal length make a whole of difference??

bcuz i do have in mind wheather to get the 55-200mm vr or 70-300mm vr..

and also for the kit lens, which type of filter i should get??and the price expected.
for the telephoto, is a lens hood enough or use both filter and lens hood?

Buy a 18-135 and a 70-300 vr la.... For normal usage UV filter enuf lo or u can oso go for CPL

Hey dude since when u so interested wif aunties huh brows.gif

If you got the bucks , get the Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 , 70-200mm f2.8 Vr and 12-24mm lens .
Thats more than enough actually.

Filter is much more reliable than the lens cap aint hood.

there makes up a total of around RM10k......

Oh my gosh , Rm300 for a lens ? I'm glad to buy any lens at this price man , guess you doesnt do your homework.
Did ya know that the UV coated in front of the lens will gone if keep cleaning with those chemical ? Not to say to avoid scratches.
I dont think eighty bucks is expensive for a lens.
If doesnt want to secure your investment in your equipments , what for getting dslr ?  laugh.gif  tongue.gif
P/s : My apologise if my sentences offended you.  smile.gif
