E-systems will not have this problem

[Hitman]

I read with amusement the following thread,

http://forums.clubsnap.org/showthread.php?t=155455

I'm a first-time DSLR user, so I'm not sure how 'big' this dust problem can be for DSLRs, I'm sure non-Olympus users will have their ways of dealing with the 'dust' problem but I'm glad that Olympus has chosen to take care of the dust problem for the users.

Yup, I'm glad I've chosen the E-System.

Last week, a friend of mine ask me - 'How do you clean your sensor?' after he had his 1st DSLR for 3 months.

I replied, "I don't need, yet!" after nine months!

why? i'm using a canon, and i'm fine with it. in fact, all systems has its pros and cons. I'm fine with the dust problem.

its more of the "ego" in action and the regular practise in boasting it. also a narrower brain thinking functionality.

Agree with u,

When you're at the lower end of the scale, u'll need to find something to boost the ego. Else you'll feel very low & rejected.

If you say quantity is the scale then you are right we are still not on par... but is quantity the scale to measure ? you need to think abt it though..

Hahah...

Of coz quantity alone cannot help one get (non-technically) better pics. But sometimes, we are so obsessed with what our camera can do compared to others that we kind of missed one of the essence of photography as a hobby; enjoy the process. Like wat your .sig says, not everything money can buy.

my believe:

dun let the passion for this art turn into obessesion for the brand.

If its not obsession with a particular system, then what is it pointing others that they are on lower end of the scale...

Every system got its pro's and con's. Talking about a good point available in a camera wont make it better nor being on the lower end of the scale doesnt mean need a ego boost.

Enjoy shooting

Hey folks, everyone is different which is why there are so many types of cameras let alone brands.

Life is simply too short and the world out there too beautiful to waste on this... so go shoot more. Some of us dun even have time to go toilet let alone carry the camera these days... me bladder's about to explode

Hi bariq,

I thought you said you are very busy with a project. Why are you wasting your preciuos time replying to such comments. If you are free, lets go shooting together. You will definitely find your time most well spend then to reply to those comments and bring yourself down to that level. Life is too short for us to waste our time.

Let's go shoot, shoot, shoot.

U've got it all wrong, I was refering to drudkh's comment tt there's no pt arguing which brand has better functions, and is directed at everyone, C, N, and KM also.. And he was refering to hammer_400's post in #3.

I'm not going to argue which system is better. Each has their strong & weak pts. I've seen users from all systems that can take good as well as lousy pics.

[Drudkh]

Chill it ppl, this kind of topic had been argued about since the birth of these different brands. It gets no-where and no point in trying convince anyone. Its all up in the maturity of the person, how open minded can he be and how stubborn he is.

Cheers.

[Hitman]

Oops, sorry people. It wasn't my intention to start any arguments over which is a better system - which is exactly why I post in the Oly forum instead of replying directly to that thread. I wasn't aware that there will be users of other brands to be also reading the Oly forums (bad assumption ).

Whatever systems/brands you're using, the important thing is to know your equipment well and put it to good use. At the end of the day, it's the man behind the lens that takes the picture.

Have a good week ahead!!

u got that one right AReality. even Vivitar lens can take great pics. the images can be picture perfect, only not technically perfect but its still ok, cos the whole message has been brought across effectively/artistically. in the process of taking this pic, is the most enjoyable time.

hey raycsk, nice to hear from u again after such a long long while. better get that bladder check.

now lets see who else has been silence for a long while. i can think of Bailey, tunghk & Xanderman. maybe switch camp already?

dust can still stick to the back elements of lenses

thats true. also cleaning back elements of lens on is easier than cleaning sensor.

i wud also like to point out that the dust buster is also not a 100% sure perfect solution. read the manual & it says that some type of particle will still stick to the CCD, eg, lint. so u still need to change lens as quickly as u can to min such risk.

but having a 90% cleaning efficiency definitely beats nothing at all.
