QUOTE(shinchan^^ @ Apr 17 2007, 09:49 AM) hmmmm ... i don't see why the sb400 will solve the hand shaking ... is it because of the weight ?or because you'll have a more powerful flash (than the built - in) so that you can use flash every time, thus you can go with faster shutter speed ? (thus eliminates the blurry images cause by hand shakes) lol ... anyway I'm new to dslr too, so please advise |

QUOTE(Gadget_Freak @ Apr 16 2007, 08:40 AM) Get the D40, dun worry if u are newbie. The kit lens is very good (sharp and fast AF) and if u are in tight budget, this camera suit u well and probably u can invest on 55-200VR if u can't afford 18-200VR but u lose the conveniency. thkz for ur advice And the D40 is designed for consumer from PnS or prosumer. The JPEG processing quality is very good, better than D80, good WB and good ISO performance. 18-200 is 3k QUOTE(sinister @ Apr 16 2007, 10:36 AM) QUOTE(aba9785 @ Apr 16 2007, 09:10 PM) well...i would suggest that u use tripod most of the time get a good tripod, but it will be pricey then something like Xtend-a-View http://photosolve.com/main/index.html http://www.bermangraphics.com/coolpix/cpsunlight.htm dont forget to use a remote or the self-timer to trigger the shutter button. enjoy photography QUOTE(macg @ Apr 17 2007, 09:29 AM) thkz for ur advice n also thkz for aba for the link, i will bookmark it n read it QUOTE(scotty @ Apr 16 2007, 12:17 PM) if i'm the store owner. i'll sell you whateva make the most profit out of it. aiming to get 1 a100, but hv to wait the price come down abit 1st, else i might end up d40dear TS. get the sony alpha 100. it will help alot QUOTE(g88 @ Apr 16 2007, 11:02 PM) like been said, don't worry..as long you still have hands than you can play DSLR haha~nice say, nothing is impossible if i still hv my hands lolx~thkz for encouraging me QUOTE(shinchan^^ @ Apr 17 2007, 09:49 AM) QUOTE(maelzx @ Apr 17 2007, 11:04 AM) hmmmm ... i don't see why the sb400 will solve the hand shaking ... is it because of the weight ? or because you'll have a more powerful flash (than the built - in) so that you can use flash every time, thus you can go with faster shutter speed ?

with flash, if you're shooting in P-mode, your shutter speed is set to 1/60 which is sufficient to counter handshake with your kit lens.

with flash, you don't need to use slow shutter speed.

i think if you like to do photojournalism, just get urself an external flash so u can use higher shutter speed to prevent blurred images...1/60 should be just nice...u can push it up to 1/100 if you would like to be on the safe side...providing that the person/object you're shooting is moving too...but not worries bout handshake...everyone will have it after holding that heavy camera for a couple of hours...
