D5100 user...fall in!! Part Two

[Johnbon]

Hi,
may I know u brought from jb whuch shop?[/QUOT

Foto cls at ksl. I believe angsana shopping centre got few camera shop so may get better deal.

I think price may have gone up cos when I bought my 5100 the shop Guy told me to get 7100 for s$1200 body only
. But read from here a bro said price when up s$1500.

 

[ericshtoh]

How much is the market price for 7100 now? Had walk few shop and they dun have stock

 

[Konspire]

Seriously? There is a 7100 model now?

18-105 is very useful focal length but i don't think Singapore got sell such kit package and cannot buy body only. Btw take note of the crop factor. When selecting lens, remember to multiply by 1.5x to get full frame equivalent.

Bro, sorry to bother, can u explain again regarding crop factor. I understand that dx has a crop factor against fx sensor. Err, i think d5100 is 1.5 crop factor? So how do we see it related to the lens? Thxs.

What u see on 50mm on a dx camera is what a fx user sees on his 75(50x1.5)mm.

Ok D7000.
Around 1.8k if I'm not wrong.
But Nikon is low on stocks now. HQ tio Japan Tsunami, factory tio Thailand flooding. Now moved to Malaysia factory already. Or is it still moving?

You should have gotten the AFS version. May consider the sigma 50mm F1.4 instead.

bro, this one is the one selling at $229 right? i saw it at HN. was wondering about that too but didn't know that it's totally manual focus. anyways, just to share with you, i was thinking of prime lens as well looking at it's wide aperture capability but dunno between 35mm n 50mm. so as i read around, a lot of advice before getting the prime lens is to test the present lens we have n set it to 35mm n 50mm to really know which ones we prefer. i tried at 50mm n felt quite tight and at 35mm is ok. but that's just a thought n test la. i'm still able to cope with my present variable range........mayb u shld try that too...no?

For d3000 to d5100 only use manual cos camera no build in AF motor , higher end d300---d7000 can fully AF . U saw at HN is the one D version no AF motor, but it is fun u have to learn to use it also practise the exposure tis lens is very Sharp , maybe oneday decide to upgrade to d7000 ...one more thing 50mm f1.8 got very nice bokeh than the 35mm ..

Ask TK foto or cathay photo for a quote for AF 50mm F1.8 D... should be cheaper.... So how I prefer 50mm more on a DX camera. Too wide for FX though...
