lahi mo ug brand way share share... kang juan kang juan kang mari kang maria

Hey bai thanks for posting. Interesting na payts na ang 1000D. Grabe raba sale ana karon less than 30k nalang. Wala raba problems sa pag focus niya bai? Paspas raba gihapon tungod sa lens?



Thanks bai. As mentioned ni motown, ganahan na unta ko nikon d90 pero si misis ganahan sab musud ani na bisyo and ganahan shag canon. Mag canon nalang sab ko para mag share ra mi sa lenseses.

Thanks for the heads-up bro. By any chance, naa bay 50mm na USM?



Mas gaan ang canon for her.

Yeah naay USM ang new 50mm nga 1.4 (kadtong reply ni FranZeno) pero taas gamay iya price. I don't totally agree that mas gaan ang Canon compared sa Nikon, gaan man kaha you mean by literal?

Anyways goodluck sa imo decision and happy shooting

Ako kay I used my 40D to shoot my cousin's wedding.
Sakto ang gi mention sa mga tawo diri sa forum... it's not the body.... it's the lens that matters.

Akong gamit adto na time is just kit lens and the 50mm
50mm f/1.8 --> used indoors; shooting some rings, etc.
18-55mm --> used for group shots na later sa wedding and reception
55-250mm --> used for portraits during wedding (di man gud ka kaduol2x while ga-misa ang pari)

If you researched very well, you will know why I prefer the 40D over the 50D

[arisarnado]

A true USM lens would be nice. Fast and precise mo focus.
Perfect for those decisive moments

(If you're wondering why I mentioned "true" USM, there are
actually two versions of USM )

[Chipmunk888]

awa, sakto lagi ko..as per master arisarnado, 50mm and 18-55m lagi^^


buy na og any preferred body then kuha 50mm =) gamay pa imo gasto.


@ john

about sa weight, depende ra na sa model bro. kuha og 50d para mo dako lawas ni wifey^^ jk

[johnnyblues]

^^ Canon 50mm f1.4, f1.2L and f1L USM

Thanks bai.

For wedding...

Canon 40D with 24-70mm and 70-200mm 2.8 ahehehehe

still dreaming with 5D Mark II together with those 2 lenses above ahehehe

advice pa ni bossing sa akoa.. ayaw pangita sa wala ahehehe
use all that you have at hand.

Good Luck bro and Payr!
hope to see you on IPC one day.

Hope to join IPC sab. Soon soon.

The thought actually crossed my mind. Na research naman gud nako pag ayo ang Nikon models (loving the D90 or if my funds permit, the D300) and I actually already have a list here of things to buy (tripod, filters, mem cards, 3M cloth, lenses, external flash, the works...).

One of my questions sab diay: for every Nikon lens, naa bay corresponding lens ang Canon? Example: Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S = Canon 35m f/1.8 USM IS? Did I get that right?

Yeah naay USM ang new 50mm nga 1.4 (kadtong reply ni FranZeno) pero taas gamay iya price. I don't totally agree that mas gaan ang Canon compared sa Nikon, gaan man kaha you mean by literal?

Yep literally gaan.

Yup yup I did my homework on the 40D/50D comparo's. And thanks for those lens recommendations.

Dako na daw daan ingon sha hahahaha! But thanks bai. I'm already conditioning her mind sa 40D.

[caranzodigital]

lately lang jud, naka experience ko wierd things nga nahitabo sa akung canon kit-lens.

a. kalit lang ug kawala ang iyang auto-focus - pakapin sa akung 40D (mga 1 yr na kapin)
b. giilisan nako ug kit-lens sa akung 400D, naah naunsa man noon nga mao raman gihapon ang nahitabo... magwala-wala ang iyang autofocus - in-short dili ko ka shoot unless ug mag manual focus ko pero pirting blarda ang kuha (
