It depends on what do you shoot most. If you want fast lens you should get lens like C70-200mm f4 L.

QUOTE(vincent_audio @ Jan 25 2008, 01:33 PM)
the canon 55-250 IS is a good one though... but in your case i will suggest you to take the sigma 18-200 OS which i think is slightly below RM 1700
*
maybe i'll listen to your suggesstion..... will search for price lower then RM1.7k

QUOTE(goldfries @ Jan 25 2008, 05:30 PM)
i PAID for it. surely i know the price la. smile.gif

yes is RM 1.7k. i bought at Bintang, shop at BB Plaza. BINTANG ah, not BINTANG MAJU.
last i heard YL also selling at RM 1.7k already. not sure, please call them for details.

on the other hand i met another 18-200 OS user the other day at outing and he bought is for around RM 1.8k i think. and that also he only bought it last month or something like that.

so the price varies, if you see RM 1.8k - please don't go thinking that i quote wrong price la. smile.gif cos really, even when i buy at RM 1.7k that time there were shops selling more than RM 1.8k.
*
what do you think about it (18-200 OS)? performance wise...picture quality...etc

Hmm key word = SAVE UP :-)

does anyone know how much would canon charge for fixing something? Service price etc??

Too bad the 70-200 2.8 L IS vs 2.8L price difference so much lah.. ~USD500 difference!! Out of budget.. :-(

Y'day at 1Iutama, I saw fotokem selling the 2.8L for RM6k and the 17-55 f2.8 for RM5.9K  Wah Gila man.. Tot it was ~RM 4K for original set.

Anyone want to buy 55-250 f4-5.6 IS ??/???? whistling.gif

@viking : Regd the trancend 4Gb 133x CF card I got for Rm160. I tested burst mode Raw+L and I can take up to 11 shots in succession using it. Same speed as I can get using my Kingston 50x CF card. So there you have it.. No speed difference AT ALL using whatever X CF when in the camera. Only makes a difference when you copy it to the Laptop/PC.

That one wait a while loh.. Save a lot man.. 133x 4GB = RM160, 266x 2Gb = RM160

how much u want to let go brows.gif


QUOTE(myjunk @ Jan 27 2008, 06:15 PM)
okay.. my re-con from LYN that day searching for new CF card. I've posted this a few posts back..

4B 133X CF = Rm160 (Trancend) last one from Sri Computer.
NO one else has the 4GB 133x. Also majority never sell CF (some even say have to do special order)

Normal price Kingston, if got stock (I search everywhere literally!!!)

4Gb 133x = Rm149
4Gb 50x = Rm122 (typo previously)
8GB 133x = RM340 (+ or - a few ringgit)
16Gb 133x = Rm662 ( "            " )

Kingston brand prices..

4GB 266x = 260
4GB sandisk Ultra II (dunno what speed is ultra II) = RM229 from fotokem/fotoshangrila (see the pinned thread)

Never considered Sandisk ultras cos their prices also ULTRA!!
*
sandisk Ultra II = 66x (~10MB/s)..... 1x means 150kB/s

wondering... why take picture with RAW instead of jpeg?
IMO... downside using RAW,
1. we need to use photoshop to view
2. more space for picture conversion to jpeg later
3. duplicate picture
good side maybe a lots also....
