Sorry went out the whole day doing postal run then went to City Square M and Mustafa for some light shopping...

Well, some underwear ad...selling Japanese flowery panties and bras... My wife saw it and thought I got into some naughty mood... :bsmilie:

CS also got intimate apparel BnS???:bigeyes::bsmilie:

btw kriegs, since you already seem to have researched a lot on your poison, any big difference with the 70-200 VRI and VRII? not counting the nano-coating and what-nots, in terms of IQ, handling, compatibility issues, etc? real-world stuff, not technical. any other bros who used both before and can input?

I think VR I is good enough if you don't plan to move to FF... for me... I tend to go crazy with FF lenses (just in case strategy). Nope haven't used the VR I, guy to ask would be quizesilver - I think he has tried both - coz his friend owned both.

Bro, just see some of the P&P threads also like Porno mah.... kekeke

No lah, it's a normal Ad like one you see now... maybe they saw my note... now I don't see them either... :sweatsm:

 

[kriegsketten]

thanks for the input bro. yep, VRI still iconic in terms of appearance. easily recognizable. but its a trade-off of budget/performance/value for money for me

I recognise both VR I and II... both are equally iconic to me now... :bsmilie:

hmmm.. that's why they have extension tubes, close up lens etc ma.. cos sometimes it's good when for those who wanna try out macro but doesnt wish to get a dedicated macro lens..


hmmm.. so close up.. kind of restricted during wedding.. no?

Well, I understand if you use 50mm f/1.8 to use it as macro coz it's dirt cheap... However, 300 f/4 not exactly a cheapo lens leh... :bsmilie: what's the secondary usage besides macro?

Ask Pasay, he was the one who showed me a pro photographer using the 70-200 for portrait shoots. Actually, though very tight, it still allows you to get closer from afar... Head and upper shoulder shoot with good bokeh also. It depends on your angle and perspective of course. I think any fast prime / zoom is good as long as you know how to utilise the FL well...
