Obviously some can't get past that feeling...

Ya. But the scary part is some people actually buy from them.

Looks like the eBay theory holds true. If you list it, there is always a bigger fool out there to buy it.

$360?? Wow that is expensive!

er.. It was quite sometime before our TCSS yesterday.

1st of all skylover, i think the person testing it out was me, together with the SB600. haha

I learnt yesterday (whilst trying to demonstrate the AF illuminator on the SB600), that for whatever settings I used, the AF light only works on the center AF spot... basically if I shift the cursor to any of the 10 other AF points, the AF illuminator will not activate when I half-press the shutter release (to trigger AF).

anyone care to verify this on their cam at the next available opportunity?
No need for the speedlight.
If you turn on the AF assist beam, see whether it comes on when AF point is not on the center one.

hmm... I think my Di866 still lights up even though its at other point. Maybe the settings we used are different in the camera itself?

It might be possible of the different setting either on the camera or the external light.
We can give it a try next time to see what exactly is causing the problem or maybe its a known issue. :dunno:

Yup. AF assist light only works on center AF point on AF-S and single point.

But on AF dynamic, it works.

Same for the D300s btw.

spread loh. I can still list it. and some one will buy it. If I list 300 every one will line up to grab it. and I will still make money. :bsmilie:

But I most probably won't sell. It is too useful a lens. Unless I move to FX... but then I will still have a DX body.

hahahaha... cause sure got desperate ppl wan it ma.. so u r not afraid of ppl not buying.. and beside sure got dumb bo buy without checking the price..

I remember reading one of bro DD123's posts that he can set his D300s to lift mirror (lockup?) and then shutter release to minimise vibration using remote. Can our D90 do this? :think:

 

[daredevil123]

hahahaha... cause sure got desperate ppl wan it ma.. so u r not afraid of ppl not buying.. and beside sure got dumb bo buy without checking the price..

Actually if I sell it at 300, it is a good deal, and many will try to grab it. Since everyone else selling it at 310, 320, 330, 340, 350.

Plus mine is less than 4 months old with warranty too. And warranty registered and verified with Nikon SG already. Plus senior member, a lot newbies will think my lenses have power.. :bsmilie:

Actually I like to buy from senior members. why? 1)they have reputation to uphold, 2) They are usually been around more and are more serious about photography, 3) means they take care of their equipment, 4) they are probably not dealers, 5) they care more about photography than getting $10 more from you.

Wah I can feel skylover camping at the B n S already.... :bsmilie:

Cannot. The closest D90 can do is have a delay exposure. Meaning the mirror go up first, after 1-2 seconds shutter open.

For mine, it is one press to lift mirror. One more press to open shutter.

No doubt about that. I agree with what you mention.
But have to add on something.. A little group of dumbo sure willingly to buy at any cost. :think:
