QUOTE(albnok @ Dec 9 2008, 05:26 PM) Thanks goldfries for putting the price list, I used to worry that I wouldn't catch the first page LOL. Anyway this post is here too in case of anything that I could say "refer to Page 1!"  Ask them to promote you to VIP. VIPs don't have anti-spam

She didn't move even one inch! Love the one with flash  That's why I need one so bad now  It's the case of want to buy but cannot buy again.

QUOTE(darren84 @ Dec 11 2008, 06:51 AM) Hey guys, just a random question: any unsatisfied user of Sony Alpha? Pls state your reasons here Try talking to Daruma (he has LX3 as well) or those who decided to change system. To me, a camera can't suit everyone in the world but I'm damn happy with my Alpha  Added on December 11, 2008, 7:27 amQUOTE(bysquashy @ Dec 11 2008, 07:02 AM) Try talking to Daruma (he has LX3 as well) or those who decided to change system.

QUOTE(daruma @ Dec 11 2008, 08:51 AM) 1. poor high iso. i would use iso100-200 most time. 400 is max i can tolerate. 2. poor technical service, waste my time sent my cam to service center at the end they can't even find the front focus problem. some more said need send to singapore if they can't do it in msia.  There you go, a proud owner of Alpha

QUOTE(albnok @ Dec 17 2008, 03:43 AM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « craziqbal: I don't know about the 90mm F2.8 non-DI. SpOOkY: It should say DT, DC or Di-II in the full name of the lens to mean that it's APS-C only. vcvx: Sigma DG means it is coated for digital but is full-frame. DC means APS-C. I have a T-mount to M42 adapter, and an M42 to A-mount adapter, but both are being used on my Peleng 8mm F3.5 fisheye (which is technically, natively a T-mount lens.) Ksano: The rear element of the baby beercan may not be big enough and cause a lot of vignetting even at the 210mm end of the beercan, so it's better to reverse a 50mm in front. soulfly: SWEEEEEEEEEET!  Camera Make: SONY Camera Model: DSLR-A900 Image Date: 2008:12:15 21:08:00 Flash Used: No Focal Length: 135.0mm (35mm equivalent: 135mm) Exposure Time: 0.013 s (1/80) Aperture: f/1.8 ISO equiv: 1600 Exposure Bias: 0.70 White Balance: Auto Metering Mode: Center Weight Exposure: aperture priority (semi-auto) Thank goodness it goes for RM8xxx which is way out of my lead. If it's half of that price, I'll give my A200 to my brother and get A900!

QUOTE(kysham @ Dec 17 2008, 06:21 PM) Actually i think you can, since there is no way to check the shutter count and the warranty was not measured against shutter count but against date of purchase....  Let me enlighten you with engineering talk  You can't check it doesn't mean they can't  Added on December 17, 2008, 6:45 pmQUOTE(tanjq87 @ Dec 17 2008, 06:27 PM) so if reaching like 50k shutter count, can just simply burst more picture until shutter die? then change under warranty for free? Added on December 17, 2008, 6:35 pmsorry out of slr topic a bit. i have a sony point and shoot N2, no more warranty edi. under macro mode, it cant focus at all, i think there is something wrong with the macro focusing motor. The focusing speed has dropped compared to when i just bought it. shutter count is 7k+, took like 4k+ photo when i was in US. Do u guys know roughly how much to change the motor/shutter? I wanna keep it cos it's still a good camera, small and sharp! a lot sharper than my 1870 =.= Because P&S uses heavy digital sharpening. You can do sharpening in Alpha as well but the default is off.

I will try to post of the picture if can by friday night. ianho : of course scary la, after see a carl zeiss crack open. :| . secondary is bcos the buckle the clip its soft plastic type not like High Sierra buckle i have. So extra steps if the buckle press open it won't go straight to the floor. The CZ is due to tripod ma BTW guys, I'm back and I plan to get SAL18250 and F58 tomorrow. Anyone up for holiday season shopping?
