Hi All, I recently acquired the SIGMA 15-30mm EX lens, and would like know if any of you Dynax 7 owners have had anything to share about your own combination of Dynax 7 body and this 15-30mm lens, such as sharpness, distortions, and such like? I understand there is some fair amount of...

Hi People, I am very keen in the SIGMA 12-24mm lens but am also taking seconds glances at the 15-30mm model for Minolta. Can anyone tell me where I can get to buy these two lenses at reasonable prices? I heard a lot about the 12-24mm being NEW and not in Singapore yet, but someone in this...

Hi All & Greetings to Seniors, I recently bought a batch of AGFA color print films, rated at 200, and went shooting both outdoors in late afternoon lights, night shoots ( long exposures ), and indoors using a dedicated flash gun. My systen is a Dynax 7 and the flash is the 5600SH. Lenses are...

Hi All, & Greetings to Seniors, I read in both Owner's Manuals of my Dynax 7 & 800si, that the cameras will and can be operated within these temperature ranges : -20C to 50C ( that's pretty much like in the Sahara under shade at 50C ). Are these claims by the manuals, credible ? Or do I...

Hi All, & Greetings to Seniors, Recently got this lens ( Min 50mm f-1.4 ), and would like some feedback, comments ( don't hold back, feel free to be critical ), and why is it so cheap ( S$350.00 ? ). Is this the right price or should be cheaper ? All comments, feedback, remarks...

The following are not a total mystery to me - however, I often seek second opinions : 1) How good, is the 800si Minolta body ? 2) Why does the Minolta AF 50mm f-1.4 costs S$350.00 only ? Or could I have gotten it for cheaper ? Well, I look forward to some feedback from you all...

.... the one I made on the eve of last New Year. ( note : crude and corny joke )

Dear All, Greetings to Seniors, I am about to go pick up a second body as backup - so feel free to give me your feedback on the 700si, which I feel is what I have set my eyes on. Regards, CJ

Dear All, & Greetings to Seniors, I recently had to go buy a backpacer Lowe, because my ol shoulder-style Lowe gave me a numbed right arm, and tingling fingers fr two weeks or so. Doctor's advice - don't carry anything one sided too long. Or is it my age ??? So, comments please on the use...

Hi All, Greetings to Seniors, I think, if one's pockets are deep enough - then nothing but the orginals will do. However, I do so have just a few deep pockets ( though how I wish I have more ), I'd still try and save while I indulge in this hobby - I feel third party lenses are cheaper...

HOT AS HELL ! The weather is so HOT - I can't seem to find my mood to shoot ! Excuse me all... Regards, CJ

Hi Al & Greetings to Seniors, I am considering the above lens, and would like some expert feedback on its quality and performance. Your kind information will be much appreciated. Regards, CJ

Hi All again, About not being seen... How about this : I go buy that SIGMA 50-500mm APO lens, then go hide somewhere and blast em from half a mile away? Regards, CJ

Hi All & Greeings to Seniors, How can I not look conspicuous with a bulky SLR with verticle grip and zoom lens and a large Lowe bag by my side ? I don't understand why people in SG here are so camera shy, or photographer unfriendly. I'd like to know if shooting candid shots of people is...

Hi Everyone & Greetings to Seniors, I am not rich, neither am I poor. So, just average with some tendency to save a big wad - and splurge. My recent investment in photography equipment since April came to around S$4,000.00. I wouldn't kill myself, but I think my wife or mom might... if...

Hi All & greetings to seniors, It crossed my mind that I have read somewhere - in one of those rediculously priced photo mags - that one can effectively substitute studio phot0flood heads with a 300-500w garden floodlamp. Is this possible ? If it is, I found a hardware store that sells...

hi All, & greetings to seniors, I was wondering - anyone living in Jurong West Extension area mind joining me in burning some night shots in and around Nanyang area ? - I'm targetting Nanyang CC building. Looks rather pretty by night with all the lightings. And traffic trails...

Hi to All, Greetings to Seniors. The list of places to shoot can potentially go on endlessly. But what erks me is - how do we get to these places ? Public transport ?? How else of course. But, it would be rather unproductive, and achingly slow and time will be consumed by travelling...
