D90 ug D300S, unsa inyo ikasulti?

[homeryap]

sir, i have encountered covering situations that do not belong to sports but might as well be action category. i am talking about school awarding ceremonies like graduation or recognition. awardee oftentimes walk too fast on stage. i want to shoot fast and shoot the handshake, the moment of accepting the certificate, i want to capture the expression on the faces as well...these things happen in split second. thing is, sometimes, we are torn between capturing a picture or taking a photograph....

mao gani action SLASH sports photography. slash means "OR" diba?

anyway, if you're talking about graduation ceremonies your main concern is capturing the subject at the right time. and if you want to shoot fast then d300s is what you want.

4.5 FPS is NOT enough to capture someone walking in a graduation ceremony?

i never thought D90 had exposure weaknesses to such an extent as to call it a weakness.

Well, let's just say that there are better meters than the D90's. Also, focus on the message and not the word itself. It only means that the exposure is it's weakest link; it's not saying that it's inferior to other model's meters.

sir, i had an F3 with the MD4 grip, with published rate of 6fps, but i still fail to capture those moments id want. i am inclined to think it is lack of skill on my part. that was years ago pa man. so going back to your question, i am not sure impressed with 4.5fps. i am not sure really, i have zero experience on the dark side yet.

I guess, you have to read my post again. "..The D300s outclass[es] the D90 in terms of features..." Isn't that enough to help you choose which of the two you want to have?

By the way, figures of speech nang apples and oranges. How could you choose if you don't compare?

i am thinking a d90 plus dedication and passion to learn the art may compensate...pwede kaha sir? like someone posted earlier..."burn the money lagi"

four pages of opinions...let me report that i am d90 60%, d300s 40% at this point...

get the D300s pero gamay na man lang ug kulang i-utong na lang na (if ever mo-apply sa imo) to a FF body

What do u mean that u failed to capture the moment u want? Blurred? If thats d case then its not about the shooting speed but rather of the shutter speed. Kay even with 8fps with a slow shutter speed kay d jud nimo ma capture kay mu blur man jud na. I had a d40 with way slower shooting speed and still was able to capture multiple segments of 1 action. What man jud ang gusto nimo i-shoot?

graduation rites are very slow. even a bridge camera can suffice it. if we talk about fast; its like table-tennis, jai-alai, or badminton.
