went to a friends church wedding and evening reception, brought 3 lenses with me, kit 18-55, 35mm f1.8, 55-200, all DX lenses, ended up using 55-200 90% of the time, the 35mm 10% of the time..as i was only the 3rd photographer, I specialized on candid shots which the 55-200 did very well, took...

at one of the parties i attended, my sb600 suddenly not functioning right, it's firing the flash but it's like my cam is not detecting it, my cam giving slow shutter so pic is overexposed, i also noticed the metering is done by my camera, it supposed to be showing "red cross signs" for the flash...

thanks guys, ill take into account what you've all said..

Hi would like to ask if this is common? some times i get not so sharp pictures even i use low ISO of 200-640 with shutter relatively fast for a 35mm f1.8 prime in broad day (~1/80-1/500), aperture f1.8-f3.2, i know the acceptable shutter for handshake is 1/focal length for full frames?not so...

i have but im using d5000..here's the video i shot on my friends wedding: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgczEKBvp8c i used only 35mm f1.8 for all shots (pictures and videos)..just don't pan it fast so you won't notice the jelly effect..the only weakness i see is the jelly effect when you...

i think it's the trend nowadays, newer models keep improving the video function, i guess it's because of the sensor size and the ability to change lens, i know of professional wedding videographers that are actually using and recommending the canon 5D mark II for video use on wedding events...

hi e69087, if you have a lens that has manual focus override (like the 35mm f1.8 af-s or the 18-105 af-s), you don't need to worry about switching to M, there's an M/A switch that will let you autofocus but can let you manual focus override any time :D but if i use the kit lens, then i use that...

thanks!! video will not play smoothly on a laptop if you have shared video card because it is high def, sometimes the audio and video are even out of synch..it plays smoothly on my desktop though because i have a dedicated video card..you can convert it using movie maker or any other video...

hi liulangMAo, the video is not useless, in fact, coupled with the flip lcd i find it very very handy and powerful tool (note that with dslr you are able to change lens thus video possibilities are endless). i attended a friend's wedding and brought only the d5000 and only 1 lens, the 35mm f1.8...

Hi guys, just want to share with you a video I made for my friend's civil wedding here at singapore, me and my wife were invited as witnesses so I thought this is my chance to make perfect use of my new toy hehehe..all pictures and videos shot by nikon d5000, having only one cam both for...

My "winning shot" for motion theme, sigh the lady uploading my pic said it was nice so I was hoping it be shortlisted at least and be posted at the wall hehehe:

hi newbie here..how about other electronic gadgets like laptop,ipod,psp,cellphone..how are they any different with the dslr? do you mean to say the also need to be put in a dry cabinet? tnx

thanks guys..I'm not the main photographer btw so no pressure on me :) .. guess ill just bring along th 35mm just in case but i'll use the kit lens as my main lens..

Hi fellow csers, newbie here, would like to seek your advice on what lens to use, i currently have a 35mm AF-S and 18-55mm kit lens..i am planning to buy a flash (currently leaning towards sb-600) and I will be using it on an indoor wedding event..as I do not want to change lens, I am thinking...
