muahahaha... long exposure

u are required to read in depth bout apperture.... u wan them to be clear? use F5.6, it the apperture kacau kacau, because at F2 below, more then 3 ppl, they easily prone to blur, or u arrange ur friend really well, snap picture them by (imagine the line) within the DoF line. multi focus, can, use life view, wide AF, P mode, (ur camera will auto adjust to F4-F5.6 to shoot anyway...

sony alpha A300 and A350 can do multi focus lock,

must be in P mode and liveview mode. its just apperture adjusting in P-mode.

well, cheap CPL, if u get a good one, u'll have better result:

it was a test shot when i first got my cpl.

impossible A300 discountinued,. btw, i wanted to get a 2nd hand A300, Rm1.2k body only, 6 month, under 5k click, worth it?

buy new one ah? i was just looking for a cheap second body...

hi~ u wont go wrong with A300, the pathfinder is smaller, but, honestly, after 2-3 month of uses, u get use to it, u partly ignore the pathfinder to compose (use ur head to compose).

and, i think u got a little confuse with the A200 has better grip because all three A200-300-350 has the excate same body chasis design, just the A300-350 LCD design is tilt-able (And a switch for live view, and live view cropzoom)

55-200 IMHO is better then 75-300, even 75-300 is not excate at 300, around 270, but the range, no diff, u can crop out 10mp of 55-200 still enough to maintain the quality of the photo.

i am using both A300 and A200(friend's one, he just wanna put in my drybox coz rarely use)

i think next TT is when i gonna be in KL... muahahahahaha
(btw, 10 april good friday, u guys hols?)

FYI,

Maxtor Basic External HDD< 1TB, only RM355 at LowYat Plaza.

it's never worth it to buy enclosure + hdd, coz it cost a lot for a good enclosure.

50mm is good because,
it is the cheapest(i think) prime lens, with able to wide OPEN the apperture, to have very shallow DoF, creating nice bokeh for Potraiture, low light shooting, and cover simple indoor events, product shooting and ermm more... lol

btw, because it was prime, the sharpness is there, sweet spot.

just say, the most affordable low light + uber bokeh + indoor event lens

see the CAP word on my explanation? hehehe is could open WIDER then beercan, thats why (i think that was the key to the reverse ring marco theory)

no la, because after chatting with some interested buyer, i got the info that kl is selling 1050-1.1k low price.... wahhh i got mine at 1699 old price... sure sakit hati let go at less then 1k... unfilled warranty...

got, the lens hood is hood style, twist but no lock, soft twist to tighten it only.

and my cap is old cap, with sony word encrave on it, not the orange A word.

morning kawan kawan~

yo, well, i have a little disagree with that. that is old term of portraiture, new term for those are called 'head-shots' usually used for portfolio stars, artist, etc, as i am doing this weekend for halo cafe (20 over singers)

portraiture has been evolve so much since the introduction of prime lens and digital ages coming in, and the 'art of portraiture' has changed... some portraiture can be taken of a whole landscape with a tiny "model" at one edge.

eye contact is not a must for good potraiture, for example, google strobist or creative lighting's portraiture, u notice a lot good portraiture or headshoot not necessary made eye contact

my 2cent.
