    18-200 VR thailand made?

    Wah. I will not have access to my thai lens for a few months coz i left it overseas. Anyway from a non-pixel peeper pov, the optics seems the same to me. The vr whining is also softer on the thai version then the jap version, but might be because it is a later "edition". (My jap version...

    18-200 VR thailand made?

    I actually have both the japan and thai made 18-200. Can feel the difference between the 2. Under close examination, the japan surface looks finer. But i prefer the thai one in my hands coz i like the rough surface feel.

    Newbie

    Hmm. The 717, though old, is still a great camera. So there wouldn't be much of a step up if you get another proconsumer. Think about sticking with it till you are ready to go the dslr route.

    Anyone here uses PDA???

    I think he meant shooting with a normal camera and viewing the images on pda. I have not seen any pda with high enough screen resolution to analyze photos. I might be wrong on that though.

    Recommend good hosting service!

    Location will really depend on where you expect most of your cilents/viewers to be. This is like asking if nikon or canon is better. It would help if you mention more about this website you are intending to create. Expected uptime, security, backup features or etc. If it is a small site for...

    Safe to bring DSLR to France during winter?

    Shalln't go into the "my weather is colder then yours" competition. Having said that, don't worry about it. I bring my camera out in the winter everyday. Your battery would run out of juice faster, but that is about it.

    xxxger : what should i do? i ganna ...... ANGRY!

    Yeah, i agree with erizai. The wedding couple isn't the one at fault, and they deserve good work. Don't have to reprint the whole 10 rolls, 360 prints might be too much for a wedding album. Since you have all printed out, maybe select 60-80 shots and re-develop them. Thanks for informing...
