    Shockproof,water proof like Panasonic ,Olmpus and Nikon..PnS?

    I got an FT-10 from Takashimaya a month or so ago. Got it for 188. The FT-10 is the old gen Lumix waterproof/shockproof/dustproof digital camera. It is decent for it's price, the 14MPX count is over rated. Of course, it does have a smaller sensor than an average DSLR. Still, I got it for my 6...

    Nikon AW100 vs Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX10

    The problem with the Sony is that all it's controls (apart from the shutter and power buttons) are on the touch screen. This makes it twitchy, and less responsive once the screen has moisture. Apart from that, this has been ranked number 2 being bested only by the lumix TS100 (can't be sure -...

    file organisation

    everybody has their own way of organizing files, this depends on what works for you best. personally, my shots are kept under a Nikon folder with subfolders of the Date Shot Was Taken. I have a copy on my working HDD (for quicker access) and two backups on two separate external HDDs. I use...

    Hey guys I nd some advice..

    i have these two lenses only on my D90 and they do the job for me. like what many have mentioned (most speaking through experience), you need to be aware of what you want before getting gears on the fly. the 18-105 is a decent all-rounder, maybe you'll want it a bit wider, but how often...

    EDoF cameras in mobile phones - Yuks!

    i couldn't agree more. i never would have considered (nor will consider at this time) a camera-phone/phone-camera as a primary camera. nokia had relied on their "market dominance" back when phones weren't as "smart" as they are now. as it stands iOS and Android are on top of the phone OS. the...

    Do I still need the 50mm?!

    the 50mm is an excellent walk around lens IMHO. light, sharp and fast. plus, it's cheap enough that you wouldn't mind getting a bit "rough" with it. cheers!
