Hey folks, Sony Stores @ KLCC & The Curve are doing promotion on select e-mount lenses as shown below. The discount offered is quite attractive.

Zeiss 16-70 good price? Any where lower than this?

With no haze, its fun to walk around everyday 

I got the SEL55F18Z and the SEL1635Z under this promotion by PC IMAGE at Wisma Saberkas, Kuching.



I bought the SEL1018 which went well with the A6000 but exchanged it for the SEL1635Z when I upgraded to the A7RII.



Just sharing for what it's worth.

anyone know which seller in kl offer the best dual lens package for A6000 ya ? White colour body as well

Is there a big difference between a5100 and a6000? Is it necessary to get 6000 over 5100?

Recommendation for wide angle and macro lens for a6000

WA:
1) Cheap and Wide = SEL16 + ECU1. Unfortunately hard to get nowadays and optically so-so only, but this is the cheapest way to get to 12mm WITH AF.

2) Cheap but not so Wide = Sigma 19mm. Unfortunately not as wide, slightly muted contrast and Sigma-ish (read: slightly cooler) colours. Otherwise very good, though prices have gone up lately.

3) Sharp and Wide but MF = Samyang 12mm NCS (not the FF fisheye). Unfortunately MF only... no AF. But it's small and sharp like nuts. But... you know... no AF.

4) Sharp, wide and AF = SEL1018. Unfortunately F4 only... and expensive. Fortunately the only APSC lens usable (kinda sorta... only 12-18 usable) with Full Frame (A7 series) cameras, so good investment if going to FF later.

5) Sharp, wide, fast, Zeiss AND AF = Zeiss Touit 12mm. Unfortunately a Zeiss, so one of THESE gets you either (4 and 1/2) Sigmas or (2 and 1/2) Samyangs for the price. In other words, kidney-pawning.

Macro:

1) Cheap and fun = SEL30M. Unfortunately useless for bugs because of very, very close Minimum Focus Distance. Also, edge sharpness is only about average and f/4 isn't really that bright.
2 Big and expensive but peerless at what it does = FE90M
Unfortunately, not build for small crop sensor so the lens is relatively HUGE. Otherwise the king of the macro crop.

Well... IMHO anyway.

Where else can I get the SEL1670Z for a good price? I can only find around 3k.

Erm... SEL20 cannot be 15mm what... 20mm * 1.5 * 0.75 = 22.5mm. How you get 15mm

Need some advice. I have decided to upgrade my Sony a550 but undecided on what to upgrade to. Thinking of these few ones after doing some research:

1) a7s
- low-light capabilities & great video (no need 4k yet)
- silent shutter mode
- 12 megapixel only (downgrade from a550 14MP?), but I seldom process or crop my photos
- Damn expensive (but not a big problem)

2) a7ii
- higher megapixel and better photos than a7s
- Noisy shutter
- Cheaper

3) RX100 mark iv
- Compact and convenient but not full-frame sensor (quality of photos not that good?)
- waste my existing F58 flash (planning to use on a7s/a7ii)

4) Any other alternatives?

My photos are mainly family photos but half the time need low-light capabilities e.g. dim-lit restaurant, fluorescent/tungsten lighting etc.

For lens, thinking of the FE24-70z as I usually take portraits, half-body and also scenery with people in it.

Don't fire me for buying full-frame just to take family photos.  I consider these as treasures and memories that cannot be replaced.  Kindly advise. Thx. 

Guy's what do you think? Isn't it a little over price on A7-II series? more than RM10k.

Comparing a7 and a7II. The difference so huge. I'm a a7 user and was shocked the price the selling.

heh heh new haul

Instead of being brave, I'm being lazy. Cleaning and maintenance of the camera in Sony Center, how much would it costs in average? They do it on the spot, or it gotta camp overnight at the center? Thinking of KLCC at a later time when I'm there to collect my iPod warranty claim from Apple.

Correction of those spots with an editor; how ahh? Right, I'm being lazy again, I'll Google for it later, LOL!

SONY still have its promotion going on?

Of course, Sony could have made the issue easier with a touch screen and touch focus on the A6000, but I have touch focus on the 5T and TBH, between the laggy UI and the resistive screen, I don't really use touch focus often to begin with.

Ironically, however, I shoot more with the Samyang 12 on the A6000 to begin with. It's the 5T that I shoot more in AF with lol.

saya angkat dua-dua kaki setuju! botol tu!
