    Gigabyte to introduce $60 solid state harddisk PCI card

    hmm..the pci slot is only to provide the power. the card itself work on the sata, which currently is 150mb/s. one may think that 150mb/s is pathetic for ram that can transfer at 2100mb/s. but do note that even the fastest hdd cannot substain at anything near 150mb/s. the idea of using ram as a...

    SLR recommendations ON THE CHEAP.

    f55 is more of a toy, u will outgrow that camera soon. eos3000v is pretty much the same. no point in those entry level bodies. go for something midrange instead, either the f80 from nikon or the eos 30/33 from canon. a brand new f80 should cost somewhere in the range of 600 for a new body. i...

    RECOMMEND an SLr for me!

    wah, how come most people recommend canon one har. anyway, i think you should go for one of those mid range bodies from either nikon or canon. either f80 or eos30/33. the lower end cameras usually don't sastify after some time ~MooEy~

    anyone ever had their canon flash tube break down?

    does non canon camera and p&s cameras count? i have a yashica and a minolta p&s camera with dead built in flashes. both failed after ard 4-5 years and maybe ard 15-20 rolls of film. i guess manufacturers use poorer quality stuff in their lower end point and shoots. ~MooEy~

    D90 ??

    the front and back of the viewfinder dun match la. the back view shows a pro level finder that is only available in nikon's top of line cameras, f5/f6/d2h,etc. the front view shows built in flash. makes no sense la. ~MooEy~

    Define a good tripod.

    hmm..i'm currently on manfrotto 055, but i think it'a little overkill. depending on budget, grab one of those manfrotto 190 tripod if u dun wish to spend too much now, or grab a gitzo cf and make it a one time purchase. if u ever get a slik, make sure the head is removable, most of the...

    Would you risk your life?

    if u stand near the tidal wave and shoot, u might get 1 award winning shot, at the risk of ur own life. but if u stand far far, protect urself first, u can go shoot the aftermath of the tidal wave. as for me, i think i will just rush in and die along with it, pray that it will become an...

    sb50dx compatibility with d70

    quite amusing in that way. i think cheapest choice would be a sb24 running on auto mode, cost ard $200 used. better just get a sb600 for 360 and enjoy the ttl. nikon seems to be enjoying chopping all the nikon users. ~MooEy~

    Sb800

    search the buy and sell forum for nikon ef-500, only 3 post, and they are posted years ago. nobody uses sigma flashes for nikon camera, esp the digital bodies. i do have the ef-500 st, but that's for a film body. ~MooEy~

    d90

    i would have believed the f4x, if it's not for the wierd positioning of the ae-l button(that button is suppose to be infront, guess they never paid much attention to the f4 in the first place) and lack of front view. nikon used to have a bulk roll film back for the f4. no surprise if they...
