this from a china website i think its a roadmap of the Nikon models to come...take a look here D80

flatlanders

yes, but the background is faked but i did take the background shot from the same spot

anyone guess which station this is?

MRT series is back still mrt, but part of my "alien" series on TrekLens see more of aliens here not all of them are mine fixed link problem with TrekLens, moved to Imageshack

i think there's only OP/tech for that, they hav a strap similar to my pro loop but its for bags. i hav Roadwired straps in my shop, they are quite similar, the roadwired straps hav a small pocket and they allow add-ons for handphone clip

get the 80-200 blues, F2.8 with ED and internal focus, ultra sharp...it has the focusing speed of the Sigma 70-200 and the sharpness of the Tamron 200-500. this is a must hav lens for Nikon siao... its going out of production soon, Nikon is pushing the 70-200 VR lens which is over $2k i got the last one @ Alan photo so now no stock sorry for the OT for camera bag, i use a Lowepro Stealth reporter 100AW, will take D70 with kit lens plus 3 prime lens or 2 prime lens + flash (my prime lens : 28mm 50mm & 90mm) for the camera strap, i'm using Op/Tech pro loop, its not really ment for carrying the camera on your neck, more for shoulder carry, has good padding and feels more secure then the original nikon strap which hurts your shoulder after a whole day of carrying the camera around

selling off my under utilised cmoy2 amp this amp was built with prototype Cmoy 2 PCB, ac powered, 3.5" stereo input and output. minor "scars" from rebuilts and upgrade price is negotiable...PM me for details, thanks

got a chance to try out the new D70s yesterday first touch...it feels no different from the D70, the 2" LCD is also no bigger the the D70's 1.8" the menu color looks nicer, performance wise, i can't feel any difference in the AF speed or write speed of the new camera... the major differences are : 2" LCD menu color rubber eye-piece, (nicer shape) port for external shutter release via cable color of the shutter button (black) everything else is exectly the same as the D70, including the features in the menu. now just need to wait for the release of the D70s firmware so we can upgrade to 70s

selling my under-utilised DT331 cable was modded, detatchable cables - Canare L-2E5 with 1/4 inch Canare stereo jack just check with Hung Bros today, list price for DT331 new is $199 interested members please PM me

my almost empty train shot redone

i'll check the price again maybe i remember wronly the $700 could be the Sigma 24-70mm...

i remember asking the 28-75mm f2.8...its about $700, not worth the price as the kit lens has the same range, and since its a walkaround lens, u don't really need the F2.8...unless u're walkaround indoors i was also considering this lens...but i think a big zoom may be more useful now since i hav the kit lens a good walkaround lens might be the Tamron Di II 18-200mm f3.5-6.3, but this lens has a plastic mount, i hav seen the lens and the built quality is no good, very rough and noisy, i think it was around $600 for super wide, i prefer a prime lens thats bright, maybe F2 or F1.8 for indoors, but the Tokina 12-24 @ F4 still produce very good results in low light conditions indoors with high ISO setting...a lot of people has advise me to get this lens, they say its a good buy/investment...including the Nikon people

lens test for today Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 Tamron 200-500mm F5-6.3 Sigma @ 70mm Sigma @ 120mm Sigma @ 200mm Tamron @ 200mm Tamron @ 420mm Tamron @ 500mm i find the Sigma a little soft...but it has better features then the Tamron, floating lens elements...the lens stays the same size when zoom from 70 to 200mm, the AF was also faster then the Tamron, this lens is heavier then the Tamron, the built quality is also better, it feels like a DX lens while the Tamron is more plastic, both lens with metal mounts

hdb shot i desaturated the building leaving the sky and laundry

both headphones had been sold thanks for the interest

pics as promised

bump still selling the W1000, price reduced the sporta-pro was sold will post new photo tomorrow

a few more shots from todays wet outing

not a good idea to get your camera gear from Orchard area N@Z... so far T.K. foto in Beach Rd givs me the best prices, even better then SLS the Tokina for example, $1090 is very close to what i can get direct form my suppilers who also deal in cameras...

i'm also trying to get my suppliers to find messenger bags to stock up in my shop, i now hav LowePro & Tenba bags, but they are for camera. will ask around for cheaper but cool looking messenger bags to sell in the shop let u guys know when i hav good news

oops i thought we were talking about camera bags sorry...didn't read the title

new gear update : Lexar 1gb 80X CF card Manfrotto 484RC2 ball head did any of u guys get new gear for your D70?

the focal length was at 12mm, i also took a few at 24mm and they don't look that much different...

the "guy" is the MRT stuff its "his" train so cannot PS him
