I try not to go to any of these places if possible. I am one of the so-called "prioritised Angmo" and it simply is not true. There is no priority queue. What there is out there is very little quality customer service. If I am forced to buy new I will usually go straight to TK Photo at Funan...

Advertisement Category: Want To Sell (WTS) Equipment Type: DSLR Equipment Brand: Nikon Equipment Model: D700 Price (S$): 2750 Description: D700 body in excellent condition. Purchased 17 Sept 2010 in Holland, so unfortunately no local warranty or packaging. I have the original receipt and...

Hi Madmartian, Thanks. Next time I'll have to make sure I have a longer lens attached. I was just so surprised by them that I didn't have time to change lenses and by the time they were surrounding me I was too busy shooting. Typical! Always the way it happens, but it was fun anyway. And...

Thanks. I must admit I was a little scared when they started coming from behind me too. I was worried the pic was undexposed, but I think it looks ok. Mark

Hi all, this is my first posting here. I was walking around MacRitchie when I came across these guys. By the time I had these I only had my 16-35 slapped on, so it had to be close. And they were. I was lying down on the walkway and they were curious, so curious in fact that the last one was...

Hi, sorry it has taken a bit long to get bcak to you. The issue I can see is that any decent condensor mic (studio-type, big, good for vocals) is going to need a pre-amp to take the signal from the microphone (which is very low level, electrically) and amplify it enough to be able to get it...

There are many choices out there. What do you want to do with it? Vocals? Male, female. Instruments? Do u want to use it for video? What pre-amp do u have? What's your budget? Let's go from there. Mark

I agree with what you say - especially if the depreciation is around the 30% mark on goods which are in 10/10 or 9/10. However, I have seen goods in this condition which are for sale at 5-10% off new, full Singapore prices, which even without the introduction of the grey market is ridiculous...

I have bought from DD a few times and have had no problems at all, just make sure their prices are good (cos they fluctuate, as mentioned). To be honest, I couldn't be asked to buy from people on this forum. Their pricing makes me wonder if they actually want to sell things, and the whole...

I use a sunsniper strap. I bought it after a day of walking around the Zoo with the neck strap and a 80-200 2.8 attached to the D700. Never again! ;) I know there are a few options with the side-type straps - they are all going to be much more comfy than the neck strap choking you. Mark

I second what the previous poster said re the Tamron 28-75, which I used for about the past 6 months. The difference between the 2 is noticable. I use it with a D700 and find the 24-70 balances the camera out quite beautifully. I don't find it a problem to lug around having just used this on a...

LOL, thanks. I wish I was - I would probably be able to make more money so I can afford the 70-200 VR2. ;-)

Hi guys, this is my first post here (took a while to find a topic I thought I could contribute to)... I upgraded from a D90 to a D700 and it was absolutely the best thing I did. It's not about the IQ (cos lets be honest, no one makes really bad bodies anymore), its all about the feel. The...
