Hi, My D5000 has a focusing problem. It's out of warranty and I got it second hand. In live focus is fine. Everything is sharp as it should be. The problem is only when focusing through the lens. When I focus through the lens using auto or manual focus, thing look right but when I...

Thanks for the reply. I didn't realise these were shot with a point n'shoot. Normally the mosquitoes went for my girlfriend because her blood must be tastier than mine. When I went to Sungei Buloh I was on my own though and got eaten alive! Fun times. I'd love to go back to Singapore and...

These are excellent. How easy are these invertebrates to find in Sungei Boloh? I was there a few years ago and don't remembe seeing many (but I wasn't looking as I'd no macro then). I just remember many mosquitos biting me and having 100 plus bites on each angle. Mosquitos find my Irish blood...

I don't think it is actually a problem with the camera. Sounds to me like you have long exposure noise reduction activated. When you have this activated it takes a second exposure after your long exposure but this time with the shutter closed. The camera's internal computer then measures the...

Thanks for the recommendation. That's the way I remember my illegal version of quicktime so I'm willing to go for the real version and be a good citizen for a change. Sorry, but what is keynotes? Is this something to do with quicktime? I don't have iphoto. With quicktime can you select the...

Hello all, I am looking for a programme wherer I can play back my time lapse photos taken with a D200. Some people recommended Viirtual Dub (not sure if it was on this forum) but the programme I have on my computer is definitely not up to scratch. It plays back the files without...

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a piece of hardware which I can use for transfering photos onto while I'm away from my computer. I burn onto DVD as well but I like to have the pictures backed up in at least two seperate places. I was using my MP3 player but I seem to have reached the limit of...

Hi. I was in Cathay Photo in Peninsula Plaza two days ago and the had one in stock.

Hey everyone, thanks for all the great information. Riceball Pmed me back and unfortunately they are out of stock at the moment. Their magazines seem quite pricey though. Would still like to drop by if I have time. Nisa, if you are serious I am in Singapore now until Friday. I actually thought...

EL-EN3es are about $85 right? So if AA batteries are about $1 each or so (they're a lot more expensive in my home country at least)...then after 22 uses of my spare el-en3e it would have paid for itself. Good stuff. On another note I wonder how much I should be paying for rechargable 2100...

I have the same question only I'm just wondering about any decent brands of tripod. Isdoo, did Cathay photo or any of the other shops get back to you? What type of price were you quoted?

You guys are funny. Pity no one answered my question. :D Not to worry. I don't think I'll bother with the MB200, just get a spare battery. Cheers dudes.

Sure! Just give me your address and I'll drop by and pick it up.

I'm just wondering what are the advantages to having the battery grip for the d200? Is there any difference (other than the obvious not having to change batteries) between just having a spare battery to put into the d200 when your first one is dead? I know that some people prefer the...

Thanks for the replys, both of you.
