darthbaboon, read your blog. You got your Lowpro 350 for only RM 260 ? Very cheap and mind to share where you get it ? Is it widely available through out Thailand ?

QUOTE(darthbaboon @ Aug 24 2008, 10:53 PM) Thanks for popping by mate... and yes I got it from MBK Bangkok in a shop called PhotoThailand... there's a very good selection of Lowepro bags there and they've got many many Fastpack 350s in stock. They had a Computrekker Plus AW for THB 4800 too but I didn't think much of that bag... too big like a turtle shell. That's the cheapest I've found so far... in Panthip Plaza it's a little more expensive than the MBK... that's what I recommend for now but I haven't really been doing a lot of searching. My friend will be going Krabi soon. Any idea Krabi has that shop as well ?

QUOTE(darthbaboon @ Aug 24 2008, 11:42 PM) Uh... where in the world is Krabi? Sorry la brother... I go there business trip to work not to holiday wan.  Ngam ngam ter-come-across good deals then only buy. Added on August 24, 2008, 11:44 pmThanks... the second shot I metered the couple correctly but apparently not the sky (I dunno how to HDR). Anyways I am an "illegal photographer" must fast fast shoot and ciao otherwise kena halau by the official wedding photographer.  Krabi is one of the tourism place in Thailand.  So your fastpack was bought at Bangkok right ? Will ask my friend whether there is any shop selling camera bag.

I'm thinking to grab Sigma 30mm f1.4 to pair with my D40 as well. Ebernie, anything to stop me from doing so ?

QUOTE(zio @ Aug 29 2008, 03:08 PM) fuiyoh 85mm!!! portrait master in da house!  Just got the lens niah and I managed to play Tamron 70-200. Shakey hand kill the photo but still the bokeh is very nice   Added on August 29, 2008, 3:11 pmQUOTE(darthbaboon @ Aug 29 2008, 03:09 PM) I personally do not think that a NEW little Koala bear stuff toy is something to be excited about. Hrmph... I thought you getting 70-200 geh... how come 85mm pulak. This lens I got it quite cheap. I'm waiting for Photokina as I scare the new version will come out This post has been edited by KTCY: Aug 29 2008, 03:11 PM

QUOTE(dinozilla @ Aug 30 2008, 09:49 AM) any idea what type of prime lens D60 can use? with AF-S Poison by 85mm ?  QUOTE(juhjuh @ Aug 30 2008, 04:11 PM) Hey guys, is RM1400 a good price for a second hand Nikon D40 kit? It still has a few months of warranty left, and the shutter count is around 2K+. I'm very new to photography so I'd like to try D40 first before upgrading to better cameras  New set of D40 around RM 1,400++ only.
