That's the one
Yeah! I'm watching SP everyday!!! hahaha
Love it to the max
Cartman is my fav...can't stand his mischief! lol
again you're not getting your facts right
let's make a comparison between sony's flagship , canon's 3rd, and nikon's 3rd
a900 vs 5D Mark II vs d700
a900 wins only in terms of resolution and comes 2nd in terms of focusing system
comes 2nd in FPS.
5d Mark II wins in terms of value for money and image quality, has HD video which matters for visual journalists. comes 2nd in terms of high ISO noise control.
d700 wins in terms of fps, focusing system, and high ISO noise control.
if you ever make an attack at my teachers again, we will have a flame war.

Hi All,
Thanks for the replys thus far. Well regarding Pros using which brand of cameras, I really think its really no point arguing as "beauty lies with the eyes of the beholders". No doubt that Canon and Nikon are the big brothers in Camera, which is why in the beginning I was only thinking of these 2 brands. But when more and more bros comes in and give feedbacks, at least for me I know that Sony is a brand that is fast catching up, so thats why I would like more information on this camera.
Hope that bros here don't take take any comments too personnel, but rather treat this as a forum for us to learn more from each other.
TIA.

In my opinion the D700 is more value for money as it's basically a repackaged D3. No offense to any Alpha users

1. If you learned anything about dynamic range and resolution, you will realize that the 5DMarkII does NOT have the best image quality. It has poor tonal gradation, a tendency to clip highlights and suffered from quite a few banding issues. But that's not something you'd learn in school huh?
2. And if you're that touchy and sensitive about your teachers, then you should not have brought them into the conversation in the first place. And don't you dare threaten me again kid, as I'm not the one who has to hide behind a supposed "education" to compensate for experience.
Interesting. All these are low ISO and non-video purposes, things where other cameras excel far better.
1. The 5d mark II does have better image quality than the a900 , and even if it doesn't i dont give a cr4p. They don't teach us about cameras in my university at all. not at all. because we shoot large format most of the time. We learn creativity over technique.
2. I'm not hiding behind education, i just said i know pros. As for your portfolio, professional, i can't see it anywhere. you seriously want a flame war ? okay. we can meet up in real life, i don't mind, and let's see where the debate goes, huh.
Ermmm...well lets get back to the original topic shall we?
Ts just an additional info. Sony alpha dslrs can use ALL minolta af lenses. Basically this means the Sony alphas have access to a very huge catalog of classic minolta lenses to choose from. These old minolta lenses will work perfectly with the Sony alphas due to the fact that Sony alphas are using the exact same mounting as monolta alpha mounts.
I myself own 2 minolta lenses, which are produced in 1985 and its still working perfectly on my new a500.
With the selection of minolta af lenses and the support of Carl zeiss lenses, the Sony alphas have a very good selection of high quality lenses to choose from.

You don't even know what a flame war is, do you? It's ok, you have a long life ahead to actually learn stuff.
that just sums up that you can't handle the banter.
No, it's something you learn in real life. There's no point debating with a brainwashed 18-year-old. Age will bring maturity.

ahahah
no offence or anything,
but if youre a pro, then why are you hanging around a forum recommending cameras to random kids? ;p
just saying, when i worked at a studio last year my boss was regularly up till 1am working on clients photographs... haha
hahahaha, it's just that he simply can't handle the banter. i never made any personal attack on him, and he makes many on my age and stuff when he doesnt even know me.
Bro, he's juz being helpful la. Why pro cant recommend camera? :think: The Newbies corner is for newbies to get advices, recomm from fellow CSers, pro or not. Lol :bsmilie:
