haha buying 400D+IS lens since 450d will not arrive here soon.. lol
*
just to let you know ya 17-85 though is a nice lens, but at 17mm the distortion is the worse, other than that is a nice walkaround lens to have. I have been thinking of getting another lens to replace it but cannot find one with the same focal length, mostly is 17-50 or 17-55 haahaha

hey guys, noob here.

i agree that upgrading from 400D or 350D to 450D is bad move.
But how about people like me who don't have one yet? I mean, I'm still saving to get one of these, so the earliest boleh dapat pun by second half of 2008. Will the 450D be in msia already by then? What price range do u guys think it's gonna be aa? If less than 3k, of course I'll take 450D straight. If not, maybe 400D is enough already, extra dough can spend on better lense.

But I do like the features on 450D. Spot metering, bigger lcd, bigger pixel, sd card some more. Live view also not bad.

So what do u guys think best for me? 450D or 400D?
*
if by the time you save enough to buy and the 450D have reach our shore, I would say go for it if within your budget.

Haha. USM dun cost alot isn't it? Yeah probably they prefer an all rounder lens like the 18-200. But i can see the the image quality from the 55-250mm IS is great.
*
not sure how much USM add to the price, but it does cost more than normal lens

QUOTE(arshad @ Jan 24 2008, 03:39 PM)
ahaha. what is USM? 800 so cheap sure or not..but then mount plastic =_+
*
ultrasonic motor, faster and quite autofocusing, dun worry too much about the plastic mount since the lens is light, and the built is pretty good. personally tested it out so it's a good lens for that kind of price, and having IS helps a lot with that kind of zoom range.
but you do lost the wide end if u use this lens though since it start at 55mm

I don't see anything that starts with 3xxxxx. Are you referring to the lens number? Is there any issue with that?
*
it's either on the side near the mount or on the mount itself, it's a serial number. Those that start with 3xxxxx suppose to be slightly better than the 2xxxxxx

Anyone knows how much does it cost to set up a mini studio at home? something like two soft boxes and a white background? very interested! haha..

sometimes shoot raw, sometimes shoot jpeg, raw can capture all the detail and you have more option to tweak it later, jpeg tweak too much the image won't look nice anymore

*sigh* everyone got bonus and start buying stuff already, i need to get either a flash or a replacement for my kitlens, 100mm f/2.8 is good, but indoor it's a bit too long sometime

you want a cheap  flash but almost the same guide number with 430ex and supports ETTL-II, i'd recommend the sunpak flash. only 600+

yeah looking at either third party or canon one

QUOTE(osxchd @ Jan 29 2008, 04:27 PM)
brother that's the price diff!!! 2 60mm = 1 65mm... LOL...
can act as a normal potrait lens also... read those review...
*
been using the 100mm as portrait lens, but for indoor with a lot of ppl around quite hard coz of the focal length. my 17-85 not good for indoor most of the time so need the help of flash
