using Uniross since Dec 07, and untill now, still performed well for me, can last 3hrs full event..

I'm unsure whether I got myself a lemon set or what. They can only hold their charge for 1 day. The next day it's empty. I bought 2 sets of 4x Uniross sad.gif

How long can the battery last?

Maha or Imedion? I doubt Maha can last that long. If Imedion, maybe.

what's the price range ya?? how about 2x?
Depends on ya need. If you need something which can give you the longer range but don't mind sacrificing the IQ, get the 2x. Else if you want slightly longer but better IQ, stay with 1.4x smile.gif

ryzan76:

Teleconverters;
- multiply focal length
- multiply aperture number
- multiply maximum magnification 'faster'
- keep minimum focus distance as well as ability to focus on infinity
- have glass inside
- are more expensive
Extension tubes;
- change the minimum and maximum focus distance
- do not have glass inside
- do not increase magnification greatly
In short, Teleconverters are meant to give you longer range. Extension tubes are meant for macro purpose

sidewinderz,
And if you think the Minolta 70-210mm F4 beercan is expensive at around RM9xx, remember that the Canon 70-200mm F4L non-IS is more than twice that price.
Comparing the price of a used Minolta 70-210 f4 with a Canon 70-200mm f4 L USM is a joke. I thought I've mentioned to you before 70-210 and 70-200 is totally different league or you simply can't differentiate the numbers? A used Minolta 70-210mm f4's price should be compared with a used Canon 70-210mm f4 Macro which is around RM3xx-4xx only nowadays.

So tell me which is expensive? smile.gif

i'm still undecided either to get an UWA or get a Tammy 1750 as kit lens replacement.. last time im more towards 1750, but since i already have a flash, been thinking to get a Siggy 1020 as i can explore n learn other style of photography with an UWA.. kit lens already a good lens, and with a flash, i believe it can do wonders.. what say others??
*
If you want to explore something new, go for Siggy 10-20mm f4-5.6 HSM. You'll to play with UWA + a little fishy effect.

On the other hand, if you want to get a lens which is good for walkaround + good low light performer, go for Tammy 17-50mm f2.8. Also, with 17-50mm f2.8, you can cover events and weddings easier due to the big aperture.

guys..when u all go out for shooting...do u mostly on n off ur camera when u not using for a moment..or just keeping it in suspend mode?
If you have extra battery and you have nothing important to cover, go ahead. Else just off it so that you won't crying later on when you missed out good moments due to battery juiced out. smile.gif
