Lol it was hot. Haven't even load the pics into the computer Then its going to be a long, long process of sorting, cropping, watermarking.. zzzz

temperature la boss. Get your mind out of the gutter!

Ermm US$700 is above the RM2k barrier. RM1k is not expensive for the current f1.4, that I agree. Heck, you can get it below RM1k anyway.

RM2.4k for a 50mm f1.4 AFS is expensive to me. If they are really selling it at US$700.

hehehe 50mm also can do portrait and macro

Lol or you can just reverse the lens

Haha true, but just saying ma 50mm and Raynox can't get 1:1 I think. Close, but not 1:1.

Ehhhh what exactly is a breathing issue? My lens dont breathe! I read it and I still dont understand what he means. You boleh explain kah?

Apa la u. Nikkor 105mm got built-in motor for D40/40x/60 ma Got VR somemore!

Hehe but it indeed good news as the SP90 is a very good lens.

@mindkiller Ermmm I have not noticed what he called this "great annoyance" that he has with the 105mm.

I move my body to the front and back to get the shot I want. I seldom turn the focus ring when manual focusing.

bang for buck = 18-200mm. Everything you need in one neat lil package. Other than fixed aperture of course.

Macro/Portrait would be Tamron SP90 (since ada motor already) or save up for the Nikkor 105mm

maybe coz i copied what you guys said? then i go insert the 105mm in it. Hahaha..

Hanoi pictars coming soon! I filter to 100+ already. Now to cut it down somemore.

Itulah 10.5mm fisheye. I miss my fisheye More than my D300 LOL

Photoshopped for the tilt-shift effect?

Well, I went to Hanoi and well, I had my 105mm so macro of course!

it moved after I took 3 shots I think. Guess he was stunned the first time I blinded it with the flash

I believe it is not 1:1. Could have gotten nearer but risk it flying away even faster. I will say test both out and see if the moving parts of the Tamron will bother you or not.

Sharpness wise, both are comparable. But of course 105mm with VR means you can use it to do a lil more.

Hahaha.. why else would it have stayed on spot?

Thanks for the compliment But my macro still need lots of practice leh. As for using the 105mm during the whole trip, it made me think more. Haha cannot simple zoom in and out to shoot.

wahahaha nikkor lens more powderful poison

@KTCY hrmm new lens?

Lol cant check exif ma. Very thin DOF. 1.8 or 1.4?

Some shots from my latest FRIM outing:

Thanks Err my lighting setup is very simple. Nikon R1C1! Both positioned on the left and right of the lens.

Post post! Underexposed can still save. Some details will be retained in the dark shadows.

Welcome! Welcome! Snap more and post more Just don't do lens cap shoot

But he doesn't shoot macro!

You have become MF junkie

OT: When you want to collect ur Boba? I go sell it then u know

lol not this weekend. And its with me. not at the shop hahaha

but but.. wouldn't the speed depend on your hands turning the focusing ring? unless you mean f2 hahaha
