Well, develop a habit of shopping for prices. I've already "registered" a list of useful phone numbers on my HP whenever I'm on a hunt for lenses.

Tokina 11-16mm was on my consideration list before I went for my current UWA, hence I'm quite familiar with the current prices... When I saw you lao nua at 1069... my expression went: :bigeyes:!

Second Tok 11-16mms can go as low as 800 to 850 I think... Consider hard hard..

Used to be you can get Tokina in HK for around 800-850.

But I rather get in SG. Then no problems when you get it serviced with CP, who is the agent for Tokina in Singapore.

ok i saw tt. I tried using it but... I failed. I don't know how to do it.:embrass: going to organise PP outing? haha

a screen capture on my office PC. I used your photo from the D90 outing... hope that's ok.

original image:

notice that the sides are lost, so need to allow additional space when shooting...
I'm sure there are other better options. It's not perfectly straight as well. Near enough if you're not too fussy...

Safer no doubt, a peace of mind. I'm sure ZCA will tell you that lenses are tougher than they seem - very true... but nobody can vouch for QC issues... The worse of all, we don't get to enjoy any recalling program like automobile users... :bsmilie:

I don't need to tell DD123 anything... He's the one who has been 'preaching' stuff to me :bsmilie:
in the end, it's all about peace of mind.

The only question you have to ask yourself is: "is it worth my while to get this lens from ____ ?"

You can try PTLens. It comes as a trial version for 10 images I think.

Other software with distortion control:

GIMP (Free)
Photoshop
Lightroom 3
PTLens

I'm using Photoshop, but I wished NX2 had it so I don't have to switch programs... Yes, I'm a lazy bum... plus my PC is about 4 years old... so it's major PITA to have multiple programs running in the background... :bsmilie:

I also don't know how much. I didn't check. Ok lah i know. Coffee or tea? Or me?

Er. You know when you select perspective distortion? You will have the 4 corners that you can shift around. I shifted them to the corners of the building. Smart right...

Seriously guys, it's only a simple coaching, no need to go that far as to offer your body... :bsmilie: OT again guys, keep to the subject!!!
