Even Zeiss 55mm f1.8 is sharper, more contrast, more 3D Pop in color, but 50mm f1.8 still very worth to buy for it's price

Yeah, it is very windy and chilling on top.

my friend came back from taiwan and airport doesn't allow monopod hand carry on board. end up threw away the monopod in order to get on board.

Yes very true. I was in Taiwan last month. Same thing happened to a guy at the airport security. He was carrying his monopod and not allowed to get on board too. I heard him complaining that other country airport allowed him to carry monopod but not Taiwan.

If i'm not mistaken, it's depends on the airport policy. Every country is different.
Maybe they mark monopod as some sort of "weapon" so they doesn't allow to carry on board haha.

99% International Aviation Regulation doesnt allow TRIPOD or MONOPOD on board.

its just you are LUCKY if they didnt check or stop u. Those who manage to bring their tripod on board, its like saying, wow i manage to bring in a bottle of water into international flight. No different from i always manage to bring my leatherman tools into flight when it is banned.

im always lucky because my tripod fits into my backpack nicely and most domestic flight wont bother.

in my flight back from japan, they dont allow me to carry my umbrella onboard, but being JAL, they are so friendly that they offer me a box (long skinny) to put my umbrella, wrap it(tape) up nicely, THEN allow me to carry onboard

ya,normally domestic flight close one eye

Hi to all sifu here, may I know where can I get reseanable price for Sony a7ii?

Go to your nearest big camera shop and discuss with the boss..Give them time to bring in the stock. pay cash.. You will be surprise what they can offer you.

consider the time and money it takes you to get into big towns to secure the deal.

If you encounter problem with your hardware, your local supplier will be there to service you and that is further savings..

what abt gorillapod?
is it allowed?

If it fits your bag... and nobody notices I guess.

My Zipshot goes into checked in luggage so I'm not sure myself really.

any recommend for HSS flash trigger for my FLV58AM speedlite with A7ii. TQ

except gorilla pod... lol.. to be honest, im not sure... but gorilla pod looks so tame....

Gorillapod yes, I even hang it outside of my backpack.

Tripod I only did with checked in baggage, was wondering whether if I fit into backpack can bring it onto cabin. Guess it's not an option then.

Other than that, if you want to use 58am as your off camera flash, it won't work very well. A lot of steps to take. You can also use another compatible Sony flash to wirelessly trigger the 58am but you've got to 'sync' your 58am to your a7II first.

Not to sure bout phottix Odin II though.

boss like which area is big shop? cause i stay in serdang le...

yes...and dnt have to setup...just adjust the leg

sorry I am from the other side of the country.. try the camera shop in the big malls for a start. They may not carry ready stock or have any for you to play with before purchase. But will be clean off the box.
