I asked from Foto Edar previously, it was RM470.

BTW, I so very itchy and went ahead and gotten a new lens. (plus a couple of extras)

I'm not a happy camper of the new Canon 55-250mm IS lens which I got for Rm850 From Pertama Complex, International Camera Center IIRC is the name.

(Foto Selangor was willing to sell at RM840, but after I asked him for the price of a UV filter, I balked, he was asking for RM75 for Hoya UV)

End up I bought from the shop above which gave me better pricing on the filter. (and I ended up buying a better UV filter as well)

55-250 RM 850
Hoya +4 Close Up RM38
Hoya Pro1 UV Filter - RM100 (this may be a stupid decision though)

Being the 1st time playing with the IS feature, I'm already liking it a lot.

RM470 eh, guess it hovers around there.

Yeah.. I went by motor one day and round the town asking for prices. Best I got was RM470 in KL. (incl YL camera)

Liking it.. I can handheld 1/15 w/o blurring under low light condition.

Unfortunately, I found out (after) that I can't use/buy a 1.4 teleconverter to use with it. Not compatible. Sigh.. Otherwise... 500mm with 2x!! (then again, a 2x converter should be like Rm2K or something eh..)

You can play with it during the next outing next week.

According to another guy who has the same lens, and he mentioned that it's better than his old sigma 18-200 OS.

got to play with D300 and A700........again.......... and as usual Sony users keep on promoting Sony DSLR.

LOL. Hey goldfries, never really came across on you too. Probably you should replace the pic on ur avatar with your real pic. tongue.gif

Yeah! I saw the D300! It was Nicholas or something right who's the owner? Not really sure, but was glad to have seen that cam. And yeah, as usual, Jason and Albert going around with their A700 again. LOL. They were persuading me to get the A200. Sigh.

Btw, there were quite a number of canon users too. brows.gif

This lens has 7 aperture blades (circular) which is better than my 50mm f1.8 which has 5 aperture blades and is NON-rounded.

if you are using a true macro lens you won't be able to zoom and how close you need to get to the subject depends on the focal length of your lens. a 60mm macro means you need to get closer, and a 100mm you can be a bit further away and so on.
Macro lens have different magnification marking on the focus ring, so if you want a 1:1 magnification, you just turn all the way to 1:1, and move closer to the subject until it become sharp in the view finder.

looks like the outing this weekend we will get to see some new gears rclxms.gif
