Added on January 29, 2009, 2:10 amor should i get a minolta 1.4 or 1.7 instead and wait for Sony 50mm f/1.8 with SSM (if the rumors are true )

saw that minolta in trade zone.. still undecided either to get that one or buy a new sony.. read that sony's one got new improved coating and got warranty for sure.. the warranty worth the extra bucks (less than RM300) i believe.. if get the minolta, have to gamble a bit la coz no warranty.. and the minolta is the same age as me la

oh ya.. forgot bout the flare issue.. read it in dyxum earlier

thing is, need to save a bit before can get the SAL-50F14.. but i believe it'll worth it.. hope i can get the money ready before i left for Aussie

moved to SAL50F14 la.. last time wanna hunt for dua titik lapan coz i already ordered minolta's 1.7 from bro soulfly.. but got some issues with custom, so bro soulfly gave me back full refund.. so alang2 i think better to get the SAL50F14 for long term investment

so, in the mean time, dua titik lapan would have to wait la.. maybe on May if have enough money, coz i'm coming back to Malaysia for my sister's wedding

haha.. student ma.. must plan wisely la..

used to and will be

did my degree there for 4 years, and will be going back for my master this feb

try asking bro ament about the focusing screen.. he have some minolta focusing screen, and also mod some nikon's one to fit in alpha..

or you can buy it yourself at: http://www.focusingscreen.com/index.php?cPath=26

those one have been modded to fit alpha but a bit pricey la.. also, need to install it urself..

here's the instruction neway: http://www.focusingscreen.com/work/a350en.htm

btw, here's the comparison btwn those focusing screen: http://www.focusingscreen.com/privacy.php

sorry bro, have no idea where to buy it in KL

i believe F58 would be better.. you can learn a lot more of the photography style n technique from a flash compared to a lens

if set to Auto,
no need to control

if set to A,
scroll the dial on ur right index finger to change the aperture

if set to S,
scroll the dial on ur right index finger to change the shutter speed

if set to M,
and if control dial setup is set on shutter speed,
scroll the dial on ur right index finger to change the shutter speed,
scroll the dial on ur right index finger while pressing the +/- button with ur right thumb to change the aperture

but if control dial setup is set on aperture,
scroll the dial on ur right index finger to change the aperture,
scroll the dial on ur right index finger while pressing the +/- button with ur right thumb to change the shutter speed

it would be nicer if you shoot the flower from side, instead of top.. that's the first rule that i learned here for taking pics of flower.. unless u particularly wanna shoot from that angle to capture the pattern or something la
