Ritwik don't buy cheap ones. I had a bad experience with them.
Go some sturdy ones. Search a good one and cheap one and inform me also.

Thanks. :) Your pictures are improving. Keep at it. :)


Stuge and toofan, your shots are simply awesome.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel that toofan's pictures have improved since he got the D90?

@toofan - loved the fourth one. And yes, first one seems a bit too sharp.
By the way, how come you always find such scenic locations!

@toofan,
First image, aren't things too sharp?

And, tell me about the tripods I've posted. Need to buy son.

I used tripod for that shot so may be everything is in sharp focus and when I added extra little sharpness it looking like overdone.

yaar sabhi same hi lag rahe hain. Last wala thoda sturdy dikh raha hai but can say.
But I have the Simpex one. It is easy to shoot with p & s but tough with the weight of DSLR. So no problem for you and its the cheapest one also.

Thanks for the feedback. Actually D90 has given me more control over the situation.

Spending 50+k on something make you more serious about that particular thing after all . ;-)

@toofan I was just doing leg-pulling anyway:))

I have some confusion....
1.does Canon 500D and 550D have inbody focusing motor..never read anywhere...
2.And does D90 have both inbody stabilization and focusing motor...how can it use old lenses
3. And does the metering thing on old lens need any other motor....I read someplace that lens will autofocus but can not use metering

Please someone clarify:cool:

hmm

thats some poor research :p


Sony : Inbuilt Stabilisation: yes
Nikon : Inbuilt Stabilisation: NO = you will have buy lenses marked with VR (vibration reduction)
Canon:Inbuilt Stabilisation: No=> you will have to lenses marked with IS (image stabilistation)

Canon : doesn't have inbuilt body motot.Every canon has built in body motor .So its doesn't need one .

Nikon :D90 => has motor => lenses AF-D ,AF-S(silent) can be used without a problem.

lenses marked with "AI, AI-S, E" won't meter on D90 .Not sure why you wanna buy such old lenses anyway .
