Oh okay. So i dont need to worry about the autofocus in a300.

but im interested to know what is the function of putting a built in motor for sony's lenses when the motor is already on the body? a waste in my opinion..or maybe it has other functions?

putting the built in AF in lens to provide more speed in focusing...thats why it called SSM (super sonic motor)

Hehehehehe. (: I heard Matin also not bad wor.

1. D60 - what is the cheapest external flash i can buy and price?

2. A300 - what is the cheapest price? and what model.

3. btw, a300 flash shoe isnt the same as other manufacturers and thus not compatible with most flash except sony's right?

4. the flip viewfinder can be turned up and also DOWN to take pics right?

lol.. just realised my VG is out of warranty edi

for Nikon..there is a reliable 3rd party flash..nissin di622..which works great. around RM500 or cheaper in some areas. Or get original nikon flash sb-600 RM800 i think...
for Sony...juz stick with Sony...cheapest the F42..RM750...

i think still got 6 months extended warranty right?let me check for u lah..ok?

LoL...the first poison ever for new DSLR user....THE EXTERNAL FLASH GUN....

ya ka?? coz the screen-shot that you gave me last time state until Feb 26, 2009 only

1 year old F42 for RM550 , still worth it?

its oni for 1 year period rite? wait aa, still loading my mysony website..damn slow la this maxis BB!

really worth it, but need to lokk at the condition first

yup.. that's for one year only

update, signither , still in warranty, until August 26th 2009, u want the latest screenshot?

nice

and, yes please

Yea would look at the condition 1st. How to really check whether it's in a good condition?

so a sum of the pros cons

D60
+ Better ISO performance
+ Lighter
+ More lens & accessories choice
+ Focusing sound more silent
- No live view
- AF-S lens costs more money
- No built in AF-S and VR

A300
+ Live view - can take pics while viewing LCD
+ 9 focus point VS 3 focus point of D60
+ Built in anti shake
+ Have a flip out LCD screen for better view
- Less accessories and lens options
- Heavier
- Sony has lousier ISO performance

am i right on all the points??

got it bro?


check the normal wear and tear condition, test all the button, and the zooming function, mount to the body, test wireless and the head , and pay for the good price!

Sony also got alot of choices in accessories ma. (: Harder to get only since most shops sells Nikon/Canon related stuffs.

yes quite right..but the term i bold'ed...is a bit too harsh here..especially u r in Sony thread lol and i dun quite agree with it. i think it should be the same.

not hard nowadays, most shops carry sony stuffs, so dont worry about it..unless u are not photographer, but lens collector...
