    Video stabilization using pistol grip tripod

    I actually just discovered that these types of tripod exists. They have a pistol grip and usually underneath it is a ball to allow movement. I was just thinking, I can actually use this for Video too since in a way they can work like a gimball? But somehow i cant seem to find videos on...

    Camera shops @ Australia/Melbourne

    I will be heading to melbourne in a couple of days for 1 year and my canon kit lens went bust and I'm left lensless. Going to other countries and not having a camera is a sin. Any reccommendation on shops either at Tullamarine Airport or Melbourne city center that sell good used lenses or new...

    Best walk around lens for Canon cropped body

    Canon showroom means u can use it at that spot like what Court is doing by allowing the consumer to tryout the compact camera? Do they have 50mm f1.8 and 40mm f2.8 for trials there? Important is that it is plugged into an APS-C camera.

    Lens Recommendation for first 650D: Zoom and Prime

    I am also in the same situation. Just got my own 650D after 2 years playing with my friends 550D & 600D. Been using kit 18 - 55mm all this while and now im thinking of either 40mm pancake or 50mm 1.8. Is there any place where we can try out both lenses in store without renting? I believe...

    Canon 50mm f/1.8 Where? Alternative?

    Well looking at the situation, I just got my own camera after years of playing with my buddies and got a push to actually "invest" on my own one, so the reason why f/1.8 was a good option for the past 24hours is because i have a wide range of fstops to experiment with. After @rhino123 mentioned...

    Canon 50mm f/1.8 Where? Alternative?

    Just now my mind was on < f2.0 because I was planning to experiment it on low light condition, but now since you've mentioned it you gave hope to 40mm f2.8 hmmm. Tough choice! I liked how the 50mm 1.8/1.4 works on a Full Frame dslr (Photos + Video). And looks like the 40mm could give me the...

    Canon 50mm f/1.8 Where? Alternative?

    Yeah starting to realise that after watching sample videos in youtube of the Rebel sporting the 50mm lens... I'll take a look at 35/2. For now my mind is mostly decided to get the 1.8. There's no excuse not to because of my budget constraint.

    Canon 50mm f/1.8 Where? Alternative?

    Thanks for the feedback. Yeah my another option is to get a 2nd hand f/1.4 I'll think about it. I will take a look around the shops that you've mentioned when I come back to SG, which is mid April. :thumbsup:

    Canon 50mm f/1.8 Where? Alternative?

    Interested in getting this lens after reading it up on the net. 1) Any alternative for this type of lens for my APS-C that you guys suggest I look into? Mainly because of 200$ budget. 2) Which SG online shop sells it the cheapest and gives home delivery so that I can at least get it within...

    How do you secure your DSLR?

    Peak Design Cuff looks good! Compact and hassle free. The days when you dont need to use any straps, can just plug out. If need to use one hand, not bulky at all and the purpose is still met, which is basically to secure it to your hand incase someone bumps you. Im getting this as soon as I get...
