  1. now u can market the piece of fabric for $10 each
  2. i like the first shot, i think it works very well in b/w are u still on the kit lens? u should post it in TrekLens for more gurus to comment on, it will help u take good photos when there's someone to point out whats good & whats not as good in the pics
  3. its gas, the yellow and black thing behind the red lever is the meter
  4. trying out some new filters in PS Titanium from Xero anyone can guess what this is?
  5. yes the TTL still works, the water wheel shot was taken with flash
  6. birthday gift for your son? u need the 300mm VR N@Z...don't need another D70 i'm keeping my D70 with or without the "s" going to try and get some test shots with the 200-500mm Tamron with the D70 to see how good that lens is another good "walkabout" or travel lens would be the AF28-300mm F/3.5-6.3 XR Di LD Aspherical (IF) from Tamron, want to try out this lens as well at the shop
  7. the Tamron lens may be a better match for the D70 then the Sigma, but i like the Sigma's F/1.8 feature which allow me to shoot in poor light indoor conditions, the F/2.8 on the Tamron does not remain at 2.8 when u do Macro focus, it moves like a zoom lens extending another full length of the lens body and the lowest F-stop u can get is F/5.6 also heard from a reliable source that Nikon is going to release a new D70 body next month, according to the source, this new body will hav the "s" like D2Hs, has the same specs as the original D70 (same CCD) he suspect that this new body will hav the battery holder/portrait grip option. this is the guy u see behind the counter at Nikon road shows and the recent IT fair, he's also in contact with Nikon technicians.
  8. took some more outdoor pics with the Tamron & Sigma today first Sigma 28mm pics Tamron 90mm pics 90mm Tamron : alley cat the RSAF also got came along with their "super puma" a miniature water wheel that my father bought from Malaysia
  9. the "over sharpening" happen after i resize the pics, did not do any sharpening with any of the pics. i did the resize using "Irfanview" this software givs the samllest file size with losing print size, if i use PS, the pics at this print size will be over 100k or 200k the pic below was resize using PS, can see the difference from here. they are still the same print size, but the file size is different
  10. i don't hav the luxury of shooting at these locations, i'm lucky if i get to see a blue sky...so i just shoot to and from work forgot to post pic of the new lens
  11. took some portraits today taken with 50mm lens, the 3 are siblings, not sure what they wanted the portraits for, but it givs me a chance to pratice
  12. outdoor testshots with the Tamron shot from inside taxi night shots at Bugis
  13. still trying out the Tamron lens, i think it has more contrast then the Sigma
  14. i like the second shot blues, very "twilight zone"
  15. D70 + Tamron 90mm F/2.8 Macro DI crop out the crack
  16. more MRT series forgot to post this one, taken during off day, going to try and see if can get a shot of the train without people
  17. i still like to take MRT pics going to try and get one "empty MRT" shot
  18. no N@Z i did not get the "big gun" but it makes a nice signature, i'm most likly getting the 90mm Tamron tomorrow, then i'll change the signature. Nikonites...Nikonian...NikonSiao...
  19. we are falling deeper & deeper into the dark side...
