This is my first DSLR that i just bought. Even though this is like an old model and bought it second hand, it still have a good specification and for beginner like me with no money or you can say already broke after buying this DSLR (T_T).
Started my search with this website such as lowyat forum, www.mudah.my and www.mylensdb.com with my budget price. I just found out about mylensdb when reading someone thread in lowyat forum and all i can say it a good website. You not just can seek info about DLSR kind of stuff, but it also directly show couple of online store and price list of the stuff that you are searching for and also the price in RM, so easy for you to estimate your own budget and also to estimate the second hand price like me. One more thing that i like about this website is u can see picture taken by people(thumbnail display with exif info from flickr) using the thing that we looking for. This features can also support more toward your decision because you know the thing you want to buy can take that kind of pictures or pictures that u imagine u gonna snap. Back to the story...
After i got list down couple of model and give a thought, I choose EOS 450D , then i read the review on this model in www.dpreview.com for more detail (DSLR still new thing for me, so there lot thing that i didn't really understand what they talking about in here). Specification comparison, pictures example with different setting and pros and cons what i focus the most. Finally got my Canon EOS 450D with EF-S 18-55mm IS, Hoya 58mm PL-CIR Polarizing filter, Hoya 58mm Pro1 Digital MC UV filter, 4Gb Sandisk Extreme III SDHC card and EOS DLSR bag for RM 1.5k
After getting used to the DSLR, now I already feel like need other lens...zzz. more lens = more money T_T
What I'm interested is to shoot portrait, macro, HDR(3 exposure shot using AEB and combine with software) and landscape. I'm thinking of getting Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II for starter. Because of my poor condition, even though this lens is the cheapest among lens, still I'm looking for second hand that the price should be RM 200.
All my pictures will be uploaded in my flickr.
got some problem with my dslr...see the picture below...someone do give an idea or solution.
