NO FLASH TO START ??

HOW CAN YOU TAKE PIC WITHOUT FLASH??   

ESP in DEC ..   after 5PM .. the sky is totally DARK already ..  and many parties .. nite shots .. etc ..

How ???

Kid ..  get a FLASH !!!  


FLASH can help you to do low light focus too ..  

I hv 50mm F1.8 MK I, 50mm F1.4, 50mm Macro, 50mm L ..   which my 50mm MKI is 20 yr old already .. NEVER have any issue for low light photography..   (MK II should be better or at least the same for low light AF)

Again ..

FLASH FLASH FLASH ..

Anyone   NOT agree FLASH is so damn important ..  come see me !!!!!

CP, you have a metal mount 50/1.8?  how lucky ....

Come on ..  you know me in person ..   3X yr old mid cake ..  of course, 50mm METAL la..  

I am still using it, and take it with me when I go travel 20 yr old lens .. and IMO, can kick many " L " lens users ass .... end up my 50L and 50.4 are more or less collect dust ...

I just want to say again .. " Photo" graphy ..  PHOTO ..  all about LIGHT!!!   LIGHT source is more important then anything!  doesn't matter how high iso nowaday camera can handle!!

  Yes ar ..  I still once a while, using my Rebal ..  still not bad ga ..  better then many " C HING " with D3 tim ..   lol

Catpiano

$370 US = $450 Cad as today buying rate ..  shipping will be another $30 or so ....  then you "MAY" need to pay duty ..   then same price, you better buy here, esp electronic item ..  

However, Canon Canada just increased the price for 5D, from $2,799 cad to $3,099.


DON'T SEE PHOTOGRAPHY GEARS as 玩具 ... that is insulting ...

Catpiano

Nikon is not as "COOL " as Canon ar ma ...  ( in public mind )

D700 is damn good camera ..  most likely better then 5DII beside MP and movie.

I prefer the spec on D700 then 5DII ...  however ..   

Catpiano

Canon and Nikon sale is pretty close now ..  may be Canon sell more in N/A market.

Just like SONY is doing well in CHINA ... " IT IS A SONY"  wor .. so mainlander love SONY .. somehow.

Well .. there are so so many DSLR users now ..  with NEAR zero experience in photography ..  but talk as "RO" too ..  

Well ..  internet world ..  anyone can own Ferrari ..  Lambo .. Porsche ...  ONLINE.. right??

Daimo ..  I think it doesn't matter what Pro use ..  Nikon or Canon or Leaf or Red Dot ...  people look at their OUTCOME .. not gear.

However, GEAR is important for BLOW water ...
