My EOS 450D

After send it to canon service center for this problem, they clean the sensor but the sad part is it is not dust on the sensor but fungus. To change the APS-C sensor the quote price will be 1k plus and that make me said "double u. ti. af", better buy other dslr than change the sensor. So right now i need to bear that smug when i take picture whether by healing brush the picture or crop it until have enough money to buy 60D...or maybe 600D. i need to do more research for this two dslr. I just bought a YongNuo YN468 speedlite at the price of RM 360. The detail about this product is here. Buying this speedlite also because lack of money T_T. But by having this speedlite i want to learn taking photo using flash so that i can generate some income from taking maybe wedding shoot. To get experience, first i need to tag along with the OP of the wedding. Tag along most of the time you don't get money but the experience is what i looking for. I will have annual dinner from the company i'm working with and that i think will be the first experiment for me to use flash on people. Why i said that? because I already using the flash for bugs with my DIY snoot. Later on I will show my DIY snoot (how I made it and how it look like) and couple of bugs sample picture by using it.

p/s - if someone wonder the bugs picture that already inside my flickr, it from a program call "a day with a pro - macro shoot" from Digital SLR magazine and i one of the lucky person being selected. Taking those picture using Canon 100mm 2.8L macro IS + Canon 580EX II + snoot from sifu + my humble 450D. Thank to Canon giving me a chance to use their equipment.
