Hi fellow forumers,
I just entered into the world of DSLRs. Trying to learn and gain experience in DSLR shooting. Since i'm just a begineer, i think a D40 would be a good start for me. Here is the current setup im using: Nikon D40 Kit lens 18-55mm AF-S 70-300mm VR f4.5-5.6 Lowepro Off Trail 2 All C&C are most welcome:) Cheers!

Hey! nice play on angles and stuff =P
but i think u overexposed a lil. Seem to be blowing some highlights. The greens seem to be dullish. U have a full RGB histogram, use it. make sure u dun blow any of the channels. I think only la, cos the colors dun look as vivid as it should. Try underexposing -2/3 stops or more. try shooting many exposures on 1 subject then u'll slowly learn which is the best for different settings. Happy shooting and great choice there. =P Tell me if u want examples. =} |

dude, all depends on you dude. Coz the 18-200 is a more all in 1 lens only thing is that you gotta have good lighting else the shot wont be as good. So far the 70-300 mm is great but its not fast enough to me. But never the less the bokah for this lens is great. =))) Its great from 70-250mm at the far end its just too much movement.
The VR really helps when taking shots. I bought my lens from Amcorp Mall PJ. As for the price its RM1850.00 Its not the cheapest but I find the seller honest. Hope this helps.. p/s: at 70mm you need a distance of 6 feet to take pic. |

(below rm1k) i won;t mind paying 70-300mm VR for rm1800below. maybe u can help scout for me the 70-300 & 55-200. i'm based in JB ler... all camera shops cutting my throat. thanks |

You dun want noise? Then you will need a camera with a CMOS Sensor, NOT a CCD. Join NONAC ... anyway, you still have time

nice timing,nice angle. where you put the water in? a transparent cup? maybe you should try to shoot at more angles so that you will have more variety of erm..."impact"...not sure if it is the correct word...on the people who looks at the picture.

hi oriato,
I love your shots. The colour are so nice....I went and bought a nikon d40 after seeing ur shots... but dunno...if I am a lousy at photography or some thing wrong ewith my d40 my pics the colour are so dull....any tips on how to get great colours like u do? I am using kit lens....do you:- 1. Take pics only on bright days? 2. adjust white balance? 3. use auto or P mode? my shots the colours on bright days looks too bright and dull while cloudy days look grayish dull....hai.... Thank you in advance. no diff from my sony t50 point n shoot.... This post has been edited by buffalowings: May 1 2007, 01:52 AM |

For indoor shots, u need to increase ur ISO, or be steady for shots running at lower ISO 2. adjust white balance? Most of my white balance i set it to Cloudy / Direct Sunlight (since most of my shootings are outdoor) i've always like my pics to have the "warm" tone, and therefore the white balance setting has the rite temperature to suit my taste. 3. use auto or P mode? i'm shooting at A mode... aperture priority 95% of the time add-on tips: do try to make use of your AE-lock change ur metering mode from matrix to center weighted / spot to get the colors rite use photoshop to post process ur pics, play aroudn with the levels, curves, contrast & color balance. thats all for now... happy shooting |

QUOTE(nairud @ May 15 2007, 11:21 AM) Do you have their consent to post their pictures up here? I shall go with a simple rule of thumb: Generally, what can be seen from public view can be photographed without legal repercussions. Photographs taken in private places require consent. I'm shooting at a public swimming pool and not someone's private home's pool Some quote from Photographer's Rights... "Members of the public have a very limited scope of privacy rights when they are in public places. Basically, anyone can be photographed without their consent except when they have secluded themselves in places where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy such as dressing rooms, rest- rooms, medical facilities, and inside their homes." "Sometimes agents acting for entities such as owners of industrial plants and shopping malls may ask you to hand over your film. Absent a court order, private parties have no right to confiscate your film. " Hope it clears all your doubts... & This post has been edited by ora-ito: May 15 2007, 09:27 PM |

Yes, legally you're not invading their privacy. Ethically, do you think you're ok with it? They might just want to relax and yet their pictures are snapped and posted all over the internet for ppl to see in their glory.
What if someone shoot you and post it all over the internet? Some forumers here also dont like the way you post your MILF and swimming pool pics. |

Yeah, and I also go with a simple rule of thumb: it's plain creepy dude.
The manner of shooting people from afar with a telephoto lens (presumably without their knowledge, we won't know for sure, as long as you avoid the question). And then posting them up with the objectifying commentary "wash wash eyes a little". Just as you wish to exercise your (dubious) right to take and publish such photos, I can choose to exercise my right to remove your posts. I won't though, at least not for now. I'll let you reflect and think about what nairud and I have said, for a photo doesn't just portray a scene; it can portray the person behind the camera too. |

which lense do you have in mid until you need to change the body?
D40 color is good, the awb is good too jumping to D70s wont be considered as an upgrade coz many cons to offset the pros except for your need - the AF motor |

welcome to D80 family, i advise you to get 17-50 f/2.8 instead of 28-75 f/2.8 since u already have a good tele-zoom lens.

speaking of tele-zoom lens, how do you personally think your 70-300mm VR perform? I got D40xkit + 70-300mm coming this week but not sure whether i should get a 18-200mm instead.
With 18-200mm perhaps i will no longer use the kitlens which is the main reason i choose 70-300mm, and maybe buy another 18-135mm and get rid of kitlens (in the far-far future)... What do you think? |

Good lens to replace 70-200, 18-55 and 18-135, unless if u wanna zoom to 300. to be honest with u... the sharpness at 300 is quite bad... i always limit myself to shoot max up to 250mmnot that sure bout 18-200, i heard it has poor lighting and not that sharp towards 200 normally these lenses are sharp at their midspots ((200-18)/2) = 91mm my tele is very sharp at 70mm and still sharp at 200mm. the quality drops as u zoom towards 220mm and above. the bokeh it gives also are nice for portait.. the models i shot were using my tele and u can put a +4 filter to make it into a "macro" lens like the sample shots i took on the spider. today, 85% of the time my tele is fixed to my body. seldom use the kit anymore unless i'm taking sunsets or landscapes @18mm |

The jumping spider looks to be feeding on another household spider. "Daddy Long Legs" is the name IIRC.

QUOTE(ed7x2 @ Jun 4 2007, 08:50 AM) AWB not always correct 1 , sometime need to adjust according to environment , anywhere good tried That is what lotsa newbies refure to learn nowadays ... "adjust according to environment". New generation photographers tend to leave an average of 60% to software work or post processing becoz it's easier and 'more comfortable' to sit infront of the PC rather than figuring out what to do in promptu, blammin poor quality images to the lens (usually the kit lens) and their noon skills.Rest assured, that unless you're willing to improve on your composition, angle and light play, couple with colour reading skills and mastering your white balance, you can remain as you are for the next 10 years or so. Save the cash to upgrade your PC or post processing software instead. |
