QUOTE(skyther @ Nov 17 2007, 01:46 AM) BTW, once you get a D50 or 70 you will find that the D40 sucks... you'll take a long time to get used to the lack of direct controls and top LCD. D50 should be dirt cheap now. D40 will take better pictures with less hassle but once you understand how to use an SLR you'll find the D50 is more convenient.   |

QUOTE(skyther @ Nov 17 2007, 02:46 AM) 20D? Why 20D?! Seriously, if I could afford to start all over again I'd go for a 5D + 24-105L... the moment you look through the viewfinder you're hooked... Put to M mode and put the shutter speed to -- (which is the remote control bulb mode).. The ML-L3 remote is useful not just for self portraits but long exposure as well especially if you have a lousy tripod... so your hands don't shake the camera when you press the shutter. Only downside is you can't use bulb exposure with the IR remote unlike the wired remotes  BTW, once you get a D50 or 70 you will find that the D40 sucks... you'll take a long time to get used to the lack of direct controls and top LCD. D50 should be dirt cheap now. D40 will take better pictures with less hassle but once you understand how to use an SLR you'll find the D50 is more convenient.

QUOTE(MR.Shiney @ Nov 17 2007, 07:14 PM) shieyt, i really2 dun wan 2nd hand unit... Can or cant autofocus with D40 depends on what lens loh, if its Nikkor AF-S or Sigma HSM lenses, then no problem pairing with D40 at all. If not, then you'll have to manual focus loh. If can find a good condition D50 or D70 or D70s, go get them if you dun mind owning a used unit. my cousin oso worried that the d40 cant autofocus it can, can it? aiyo... choices.. hmm. maybe i'll stick to d40. or get the d50.. warghh! im so confused |
