Wow, so many replies!!! thank for everyone chipping in...greatly appreciate it. Personally I prefer not to flash my subject as I find that usually it looks odd.. i prefer the nature lighting even when it is dim but with some ambient light source, but sometime really bopiah, I rather flash it...

Haaa.. I also felt so..maybe I didn't explain well. but general idea is I want to find out if the lens shadow issue will still happen when I get the D800 pairing it with 24-120 lens. Sounds like this issue will still happen as long as I use the built-in flash when I use it with 24-120 on D800...

Yeah yeah.. I want to find out more of D800 before getting it.. heee

No lah, the 24-120 is a good carry around len I think, just right for most situation which I can think of.. but I like your idea of using 50mm and use DX mode to tele a bit.. I do not have a FX cam, been using a DX, never thought it that way.. still waiting to get my hand on D800.. so thot of...

Oh what I meant is, if I use SB400, do you think it will cancel out the len shadow issue?? Usually I dun flash, but when the situation calls for it, I need to take care of this stupid lens shadow issue when I flash it using built in flash. if possible I try not to carry a big flash..too heavy...

Thanks..I think that will be the best solution so far..

Hi thanks for the suggestion.. but unfortunately 24-120 will be the walk about lens, so I thot if getting D800, will this problem still exist.. looks like it is unavoidable. btw, do you think with SB400, this might be solved? now I can think of is take a wider picture and crop it

Yeah its because of the lens..

Yeah, thought if they can tilt the angle of the built-in flash may "solved" this stupid problem.

Hi, Please see the sample. Actually, the issue is when I use the built in flash with a 24-120 len, it will cast a shadow at the bottom of my picture due to the len being too big (I have circled the shadow). using shorter or smaller len will not cause this problem, or an external flash. But an...

Hi, May I ask if the built in flash for D800 will cause any "halo ring" issue when using with len filter attachment size as wide as 77mm (eg 24-120mm). Did anyone tried? Thanks

Like to check all of you if your Ixus 40 have some twicking sound from the lens when you tries to focus.. my seems rather loud compare to my S40.. so I am abit worried...

Hi all.. is there some twicking soung coming from you lens when you tries to focus?? my seems rather loud, not sure if its normal or I got a faulty set.. old S40 dun have such sound...
