i am still in if can get cheap biggrin.gif, hoping to get a second hand one if can get cheap, a forumer might be selling, waiting for news from him
the 1st generation of the 50mm f1.8 is of much better built quality, and well worth it if can find one in good working condition
*

you mean a second hand F1.8 II or F1.8 I? laugh.gif

no one for new units? tongue.gif

and yeah, the first gen had a much better build quality. biggrin.gif

This lens hard to find liao. Like try to catch a needle in the sea.

The 1st manufacturing year is 1989.

So long time.

If u can find it. also not worth to buy.

Better buy 50mm f1.2

I plan to buy end of the year. Waiting bonus
*

wow. how much would it be for the F1.8 I? unsure.gif

if it's price matches that of the F1.2, i'm speechless. laugh.gif

I am interested. Fotokem quoted me RM300.

with UV filter? smile.gif

QUOTE(valho @ Jan 18 2008, 09:36 PM)
actually quite worth it if u can find a good working one, lens last a long time if well taken care off. I myself got the 1st generation 100mm f/2.8 macro lens recently, super sharp lens and good quality built. The 50mm f/1.2 is too expensive though.
*

yeah. it's around RM5-6K right? unsure.gif

Depend lah, 50mm f1.2L got 2 version 1 with USM and 1 wtihout USM. I think so
*

@hornet, so you were quoted RM300 for the 50mm F1.8 without UV filter right? biggrin.gif

how much urs??

my what? unsure.gif laugh.gif

QUOTE(valho @ Jan 18 2008, 10:06 PM)
yeah the 50mm f/1.2 L is around that price
USD120 i think is for the 1st gen 50mm f/1.8
the 50mm f/1.8 if above RM300 expensive already, coz the lens alone got shop selling at 280-290, the 52mm UV filter is just 20+ only coz I got one for my 100mm
just one version i am afraid, 50mm f/1.2 L USM, the previous version is 50mm f/1.0
f/1.4 is good enough already, unless you got a lot of cash to burn smile.gif
*

also unless you already have a 70-200mm F4L. tongue.gif

u are right. The art photo is base on the skill and knowledge.

I know alot of ppl here is just know how to snap photo by press button. But come to technical knowledge all dunno.

Some say buy good lens will get the good art photo.

Not necessary.

This is my view on the camera men.

U need to know all the concept and the technical of the camera.

After that only come to shooting.

Most important thing is practice make perfect
*

agreed. first comes the skill, then comes the equipment to practice those skills. smile.gif

Yes without the UV filter. So when do you plan to get yours?
Yes, I know RM300 (without UV filter) is a bit expensive compared to other shop. That's why I didn't buy yet. smile.gif

Hmm, when people say its the kit lens, people tend to refer to 17-55. Technically thats a lens that comes in a kit, right? cause when i asked someone about their 17-55 and they stoned with questioned looks. Then i had to enlighten up with the word kit lens.... -.- there are other lens that comes in a kit right?
*

18-55mm F3.5-5.6 is the "standard" kit lens that comes with the kit.

however, you can also opt for the 17-85mm IS USM F4-5.6 lens. IIANM it is the other kit option available.

QUOTE(wjie20 @ Jan 20 2008, 02:26 PM)
should NOT. as the post below you, derek has said kit lens, which could mean many other lens.
*

actually, i think it all just boils down to who thinks what is right. to me, both are equally right. both 18-55mm and the 17-85mm can be called kit lens. however, IMHO, the 18-55mm is the "standard" kit lens, as most buyers tend to choose that when purchasing their 400D.
