i got all you guys' pm - just that no time to go update la. cos my brain now very very very occupied in rushing client's stuff.

http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat...43&changemode=1

ask so much. use Google la.

the emoticon shows a lot how easy i'm going. no?

eric, what's the purpose of that photo? comment ah? generally just snap shot la.

improve your composition. you have a good camera and 2 nice lenses, it's a matter of how you use it now.

doesn't look like dirft.

look like panning shot of a fast moving car.

use A900 also so shy. cover for what? I notice some other people also cover up their gear details, even more power than what albnok did - sticker until even the back buttons.

i'd say, be proud of what you have. mine go around with 350Dino also don't care wan la.

btw, to albert.

cos on photo not as impressive as seeing it for real mah.

meh, not referring to you la.

actually la, albert wan no point hide hide. cos A900 shape is on it's own, how you hide also can see it's A900. the top there is distinctly shaped.

Powered by Sony A200, Canon EOS 40D, Leica D-Lux 4, Panny LX3, Oly SP350

we haven't gone into counting your Sony and Canon lenses. and flash. total also come to around A900 already. probably can get you F42 or something some more.

tested the 18-250 with F58 the other day, no poison........... but i certainly like that the lens was f5.6 at 250. and F58 is nice.

donno when will i get my Alpha.

never had.

will get to it la. got so many people pm me.

good choice. A300 is my target actually. decided A300 over A350.

just that haven't buy only.

i think some of you already know what i intend to buy la.......... assuming got cash fall on my lap.

A300 + CZ1680 + F58 + Grip. so if ever i have this, yeah you know what happened to me la.

what's there to 'fat tat' la? money come in, go out on Alpha.

before that, I need to upgrade my existing stuff first.

I also have intention to Nikon D90 + 18-105 VR + SB800 / 900 + Grip.

so erm.......... yeah well.

ouh darn.

k lor buy twin kit get the tele together.



same reason as why i choose A300 over A350.

let's not forget that lower MP also means faster read / write per pic.

nao wai!

i had a lemon unit before.

seems dimmer at f2.8

and also have contrast issue.

tested another unit recently, f2.8 worked fine and contrast issue it almost non-existent.

same results as you.

yeah eddy han got f58. i play with it liao lor, i go turn it off some more. unfortunately the fella didn't check the flash before using, so made some of his shot blur. haha.
