Ask you all har, full frame vs aps-c on the same lens, will the full frame be more prone to lens flare at night?

Also, the in-cam hdr function seems to be cropping the photo quite a bit in the alignment?

I think for flare... no diff if FF or APS...... :think:

 

[Far far away]

If money making is as easy as this... lol....

Do a blog, and maybe you can get some attentions???? :think:

Haha... No lah just doing some volunteer work for bros here... Blogging is too much of a hassle for me.

Ehhh... I thought lens flare have got something to do with the lens? Irregardless of what body you use? :think:

Yeah, I think so too. Lens flare and Vignetting are properties of the lens. Just that for the same lens, crop sensors may see less of vignetting due to cropped size. But for flare.. I don't think so bah..

I think it is the lens issue, and FF or APS.... should not have any effect.... :think:

Haha... Have to blog how many times to get 5D3? If too many times I would rather spend the money! Save me all the time and efforts!

That is true about the sweet young thing. Old uncle like us have to show "kar moh" or moobs... Haha...

However for cameras, dunno how effective the SYT strategy will be. Just like cars, I would rather talk to a guy who know his stuff about cars rather than a SYT who try to :deh: you into buying. Sexist I know but such cases are aplenty (think SCDF and CNB).

I also dunno.... must think of something that can blog and gain attentions, and get Canon interested... if Niko wanna offer you D800... will you jump ship??? ie. you cannot use Canon ever???

You should Kah mor no use... must show $$$$.... lol....

SYT deh is not uncommon.... seems the most common strategy, and I usually do not trust sales men or women... I do my own research before I go and buy anything.........

Thanks, where did you get yours?

 

[zurichdo]

I think most shops are having stocks as it is being replenished fast. Only thing is how much they are pricing it. Walk around Funan if you have time and ask around. Shouldn't deviate much between the friendly neighborhood stores.

really? the understanding I have is, Canon is still ordering 2nd batch of 5D3 from Japan leh.

 

[alpha1ma]

That would depend on this country right? Safe or not safe..how many photos you taking a day..how much you walking…how heavy bag can you carry etc...

yup going to US west coast.

prolly be taking quite alot a day. 500 a day i guess.

still looking at which bag to buy. prolly have to get a backpack over sling bag.

 

[alpha1ma]

Haha... Forget it.. Camera are tools to me and to blog about the goodness of Canon just to get a free camera plus NEVER use a certain brand ever is like selling my soul to the devil to me..

Yeah I appear naked also no use! Probably need an ironing board and hot iron to iron out all the wrinkles first! Haha...

Yupz same here! I do my research first than go and buy. Sales pitch seldom has an effect on me..

Not sure about how safe the US west coast will be. Been to Boston before wth my 60D and 17-55 then and walking about in day light is ok. Have to check where are the "bad" neighbourhoods and avoid those place at all cost! Probably backpack should be fine in the US cos unlike Europe which have a lot of petty theft (backpacks are one of their favourite), US probably have a lot more hard core robbery so it doesn't matter which type of bags you use.

Something to share! Apparently the Nikon D800 scoresthe highest DxOMark score ever. Really cannot wait to see how the 5D3 scores!
