well i am pretty happy with these results so far. especially cos its a very nice & good tamron 17-35mm lens but at times i jus tink its not wide enuff ... perhaps a 10mm fisheye lens might show very interesting result!
hiak hiak hiak... u tinking wat i am tinking?... =p
i guess there are many version of this clip...
This one is about Hitler & Nikon D3x
Simply cant wait for any longer & i guess i am impulsive in getting my lens range up to 200mm.
Wanted the 70-200mm VR very badly but its price is just too much, thus my other option was to get the Sigma 70-200. But then after speaking to Leslie abt the sigma, he strongly reccomend me that i could spent half the amount & get a lens dats jus as good (if not better & sharper). its the 4th gen of the nikkor 80-200mm f2.8 lens. its non VR & it starts from 80mm rather than 70mm BUT its for half the price!!
After hearing from him, i got back to office & check on reviews on this lens. there are quite alot of good reviews on it & comparing to the 70-200 VR. it has lesser fall-off & no or little vignette issue. & this really seems like a great catch for half the price!
then i made a few calls to the usual shops dat i frequent to check the pricing.. indeed, this lens is abt 1.2K cheaper. so i headed down to the shop with the lowest quote & the rest is pretty much history...
the Nikkor AF 80-200mm f/2.8D ED... is mine!
alright.. now is the time to Stop Buying & Start Shooting!!! =)
i had wanted to get the domke bag since last mth.. & after checking it out at my local retail store i was totally drawn back by the price tag. the F-4AF cost about $300 bucks! gosh.. i can get a crumpler+lowepro or a thinktank+lowepro with that amount of $$.
then i learnt abt domke clones a week ago & started to ask friends about it. some mentioned TK has it.. while another said that OP has it. neway, i did not really spent effort to check with those stalls to enquire if they have it. and so happen that i went to CWS last friday to get the remote shutter trigger then i casually asked the guy there if they have the domke clone. he gladly showed me a bag which looked so much like the domke F2!! The bag seems pretty low & jus to wide for my liking & i din't really like the black+sand color combo. it cost only $75!!! shocking right haha.. the brand is not domke but its safrotto.
Anyway it did not really bother me until on the next day after watching a movie & i din know wat to do.. then the thought of popping by CWS to take a look at the bag & see if they have sumthing taller & less wide, plus fully black in color. when i reach CWS, the guy who served me the day before knew instantly why i am back at the stall! he was smiling to me when i walked up to him & told him the F2 clone was just not ideal enuff.. i want sumthing like an F3X. his eyes instantly brighten & replied me.. "yes yes i have!" & for the rest of the story, i tink i can simply stop here & show-off the pic of my new domke clone bag!
this is actually almost the same as the Domke F-4AF Pro. jus that the padding in this clone is much thicker than the real domke. its actually a plus point.. i feel more "padded" & secured.
below is a pic of wat the actual Domke F-4AF Pro looks like.
well so in the end i kindda saved over $200 bucks getting a clone domke.
