Sorry din get back to you sooner. I haven't been to Changi broadwalk, so I dunno what's there.SEXiao said:
If can afford get a bigger dry cabi. So that upgrade eqpt don't need to upgrade cabinet.
I don't have good impression of 3rd party lenses except Sigma. Then again, I am only using their wide angle, don't know about their tele though. I used to have a Tokina one touch 80-200/2.8, later sold it and got the Nikon one-touch AF 80-200/2.8 instead, the quality is worlds apart.

Thank bro, will slowly save up to get a Nikon lens..... think I got the 'N' bug from bro espn, kind of like 'N' lens only....
........... Now trying to save up for the 200mm micro and 70-200VR (not so fast).... till I am fam with my d70s first..... for now..... it's BBBBB flash system (prob go for the R1) and a tripod..... think I do macro must get...... today go shooting all blur blur, like camera short-sighted like that............
.............. anyway that day at CP the uncle there already told me do macro, must get tripod, monopod not so good...... looks like another trip to CP again..... No lah.. because Nikon is traditionally a lens maker. In the early days, they were making lenses for Canon, until Canon decided to make their own lenses, Nikon started to do their own bodies. So optics wise, they are much better than Canon. Nikon is the world leading manufacturer for semiconductor submicron lithographic equipment.SEXiao said:Thank bro, will slowly save up to get a Nikon lens..... think I got the 'N' bug from bro espn, kind of like 'N' lens only....

I think that's why I jump from 300d to a Nikon D70s....
....I was shooting macro with the canon 300d (that time, don't have an entry level Nikon DSLR yet) and did not like the result a bit...... i know my skill play a part and I got a long way to go, but when I was using a nikon slr shooting macro, it wasn't that bad..... so now that I am back to the dark side, I decide to go back to nikon.... :thumbsup:.... and now, I got better image (although still way off the standard that the bro here can produce) ........ No regrets going back to Nikon.......... :lovegrin:
And ya bro espn, your MTL, BBBBBB...... if you see this thread.... I looking for tripod lar.... I know you will ask me to search lar, but at least give some guide........... I am ready to BBBBB a good tripod that can last me a long long long time, maybe next time can pass to my son type..... heeeee.......... but it must be light lar........... budget around S$300-500 can get boh???
Anyway some info on what I have and what I intend to get later.............. have: N70s body, 50mm, sb800, 12-24mm, 105mm........ going to have(hopefully): 70-200, 180mm, 85mm, 17-35mm something like that, R1 flash unit....
