D90 Poison Club - TCSS Part I

[kriegsketten]

Woowoo! Samyang samyang 35mm f/1.4:http://www.dpreview.com/news/1009/10091610samsyng35mm1p4.asp

Tough luck Smiles88. Got ND110 but cannot use... Boy, what a fix! Me, have Lee holder but no Big Stopper... Me and you play the waiting game... Btw, have you tried Ebaying? Should be plenty there!

 

[ZerocoolAstra]

Yeah boy, sorry, should have welcomed you back earlier! Time flies so fast! It's almost like you've never been gone! :bsmilie:

hahahah damn. I thought I'd be missed.... :bsmilie:


D90 did wonderfully, all things considered. 1 entire trip on a single battery! Carried the spare for nothing... hehehe. Charged it up on the last day (make use of nuclear electricity )

D7000 looks tempting, but I'll hold my horses since it isn't exactly what I'm looking for (small FX camera). Maybe if someone buys it and tempts me.... hehehehe.

No lah, I know you're gone for a while... but didn't expect 3 weeks to be that quick! You did mention 3 weeks? Didn't you notice? In your absence, this thread kinda slowed down?

Me damn tempted! But too early to say man... need cooling period... maybe by then I might not be that hot for it as now... :bsmilie: Time being, I'm convinced it's a good cam to go for!

Wah sian! J3:16 also don't have the step up ring I want! If I'm really desperate can use 2 step up rings. But like a bit gong leh

curious i tot all step up ring the same? wat is it that u wan? a particular brand?

 

[Smiles88]

curious i tot all step up ring the same? wat is it that u wan? a particular brand?

Yup. All step up rings perform the same function. It's not a particular brand I'm looking for. It's the diameters. Usually shops keep more stock of step up rings of 1 step, eg. 67-72mm. But in my case I'm looking for 67-77mm.:cry:

Kriegs I looked on ebay, but I don't think it will be shipped in time before saturday. Right? Haha. May consider getting it there as it's still cheaper. $0.99 USD + 2.99 USD for shipping

Mass sales vendors all don't have meh??? This I can't believe (not you, but the situation), you sure you've checked with all of them? Maybe because 67-77mm is a very popular size...

Hahaha didn't quite notice the slow-down...


D7000 is certainly a great cam... To me, it feels like the injection to the Nikon line-up which 7D brought to Canon... kind of a game-changer, or so to speak.
Button and dial lay-out looks like Dxxx series. Anyone can confirm if the exposure mode is changed with pressing of 'Mode' button + turn of command dial?

 

[SnagIt]

For I think don't need such high ISO performance unless you shoot handheld at night a lot. And the new camera still considered expensive (1700-1800). Save money and buy more pro glass lah.

Wah like tt will shag leh! If exposure is 10 mins?

Er. I think I saw the dial on the left has A, P, S and M together with U1 and U2. There are I think 2 more options. But I forgot what they are:embrass:

either you can buy from DD123, or be very nice to him (maybe buy him some snacks) and ask to borrow from him on the day

It depends... for instance... you go shoot at the river walk in the evening... you want a passing boat in the river (to keep the river more interesting and less empty)... but how can you keep the boat sharp yet still shoot at small aperture?
