i tot you can bring to nikon service center then they reset the shutter for you free?

i hope i can post some pictures of the concert as i will be sitting rather far away. Anyways, i was reading the manual and found out that exposure actually brightens a photograph. So i set it to the highest. Is that a good practice?

visited photo selangor at petama today, and my impression is
the saleswoman soo ganas

anyone here got a lens hood for d40 kit lens?

where can i find battery grip for d40 also? ( searched all over ady )

eh? really? i once check got official one?

the one photo selangor showed me is the different type of lens hood.
i was sorta confused that the d40 kit lens will rotate externally when focusing.
the one they showed me the other one, like got to long upper and under section

i've hunted yl for months
just no time to go there.

i'm having some difficulty remembering what settings is for what kind of photographs. Helllppppppp

i wanna ask,will go YL or Jone next week to buy my nikkor 55-200VR.
hmm,should i take my camera+lenses for some maintenance or cleaning?how much they charge?how long will it takes?
please teach me this,not really know a thing of camera maintenance.

few month ago,my uncle gave me this lenses.
it was his old days with Film type SLR camera before it get stolen,he manage to find this when doing spring cleaning at his house.haha.



now,he really left me a thousand question,it fits in my D40,i didnt even know a thing bout this lense man.
forget bout autofocus,the aperture u have to set your own on the lense,range was set at a distance.

for the white balance,my advice is you try to use a D40 to shoot a target but with the different setting.
see the different yourself.
they all come with a same point,to make your pictures characteristic looks more natural.just like what a human eyes see.

The white balance mode is there for compensating the color of the light to get the correct color shades. Why is it called white balance then? Coz they use white as a benchmark. Example - when you're in a room with fluorescent light, the light is actually 'cool' or slightly blue. If you choose the fluorescent light WB in your D40, it will automatically try to compensate by adjusting the image to be slightly yellow, so that it neutralizes the blueish light. End result is your white will be white instead of blue-ish white.

As for the angle thing - our sensors are cropped (smaller) than a full frame sensor. A full frame sensor simply means the sensor size is the same as a 35mm film. The effect of having a crop sensor is you have to take the crop factor into account when looking at lenses. D40 has a crop factor of 1.6 so if you have a 18-55mm lens, the effect is that you're actually getting the equivalent of a 18x1.6-55x1.6mm focal length on a full-frame or film camera.

I'm no sifu, just sharing what I know.

Guys, after one year the d40 was with my hands, 28 of March bids my farewell to my d40, as i have sold it off to persuade my future interest.

Goodbye my D40, u been a good buddy to me.

yeah thts a minus without bracketing..Can i take a raw format photo and adjust the exposure to different setting later? or any other method?

ahh,going to buy nikkor 55-200mm VR soon.
J-one quoted me rm780+filter.
YL quoted me rm825+filter.
later then surf through miyamondo.com and found out that they was selling for RM719.13 without postal without filter.
anyone know is there any places cheaper than this?

y YL have to be so expensive,i bought my d40 at your shop,can't you gimme cheaper meh.sob.

i have a question, are we allowed to snap pictures in a mall? Let's say KLCC for instance?

i dont mean to be comparing brands but i really need some serious opinions..

which one better, just with the kit lens? D40 or A200?
