tama si baiskee- mag manual ka muna tapos pag na master mo yun then you could appreciate the use of digital photos-ika nga mag umpisa ka sa piano bago mag-organ. i have been shooting professionally for the last 12 yearsx and i use nikon system. right now i only use the coolpix 5000 kasi retired na ko at madaling dalhin

btw if you are going to use a hi tech camera-the camera makes the decisions for you- nawawala ang creativity mo, whereas sa manual malalaman mo talaga kung para saan ang mga numbers na nakalagay sa camera-at kung ano ugali ng iba ibang lenses, kung nalaman mo na yun, then ma-appreciate mo ang digital-downside is talagang magastos ang film based camera

sobrang mahal ng mga D-SLR, the cheapest is around US$1000 (Canon digital rebel). overkill for amateur photography, imo.

you can make do with a fixed-lens 4.0 or 5.0MP AF camera na may full manual control... karamihan ng mga high-end prosumer cameras pwedeng full manual operation. among the best are the Canon G3 and G5, Olympus C-5050Z, and Olympus C-5060WZ. nasa mga 35K-40K yan.

pero meron din namang mas mura na digicams na may full manual control, like the Olympus C-4000Z and Olympus C-5000Z. nasa mga 25K-30K ata yan.

ultimately, it's the photographer, not the camera.

OT: may G3 pa ba dito? phase-out na daw...

G5 na halos nakikita ko..di ko naman type body design, parang lumang instamatic.

pag bibili kayo sa quiapo na lang sa hidalgo laki ng difference ng price sa mga mall. galing kami dun kanina yun unit na gusto namin would you believe 5k ang difference sa price ng mall.
yun c8080 ng olympus good buy yun ganda ng review 43k sa quiapo pero as advertised in newspaper 49300k laki ng savings mo.
pareho lang ng warranty sa columbia pa rin.
pero di yun ang bibilhin namin.

I'm partial to Canons since i use a G3 for my work and it serves its purpose really well with the adjustments i make. I prefer it over my old Finepix 4800z

Try to check out also dpreview.com

ssaloon,

busy sa OJT e hehe

**hybrid** · May 25th, 2004 05:22 PM

djerms,

na try ko canon G5 before, it's good, but the price is too high, P40k+

I use a Kodak DX6490, 4MP and 10x optical, it takes nice pics and it gives you partial manual control, wala lang manual focusing. price is just over P30k.

most digital slrs go above P60K na, but it gives you ultimate control. sana magkaron rin ako nun

if you've decided what camera to buy, PM me I might get you a lower price, we carry most of the popular brands

**Djerms** · May 26th, 2004 08:44 PM

Waaaaah, sobrang daming choices, but thanks for the info guys!

I am quite interested in the Fujifinepix na sinabi ni Ungas. Php25,000.00 ang price. Hindi pa ba digital SLR ito?

Sobrang pasensha na kayo, talagang amateur ako eh.

**boybi** · May 26th, 2004 08:50 PM

Djerms, ok nga yang Fuji Finepix S5000. parang entry level na SLR na. ang mura pa ng price. ayaw ko lang dyan, as i've said before, is its storage media. medyo may kamahalan pa ang xD card and hindi pa gaanong supported. mostly digital cameras lang ng fuji and olympus ang gumagamit nito.

**mbt** · May 26th, 2004 09:06 PM

djerms,

fixed lens prosumer-level camera yung S5000... it's not a D-SLR. if you're considering this camera (ito yung ultra-zoom camera ng Fuji diba?), you should also take a look at the Olympus C-740 at yung later models, C-760/C-765 ata... ito yung 10x ultra-zoom ng Olympus.

**Ungas** · May 26th, 2004 09:10 PM

Mini-Digital SLR yan, point and shoot system din. But you can manually override the AF system to your advantage.

Tulad nga ng sabi ni boybi, downside are the mem stick and other filter parts. Bagong labas pa lang kasi yan, kaya kakaunti pa lang ang may gawa. Expect more accessories to come by late this quarter pa siguro. But if you want external flash na may hot shoe, S7000 lang ang meron.

**theveed** · May 27th, 2004 12:57 PM

Yung Olympus ni Blackmagic ok din... pero miss ko padin mag film SLR kahit luma... iba padin ang pics.... the speed, the ease of focusing and stuff... hassle padin sa digital... but mahal matuto sa film... unlike sa digital, instant gratification.

meron po ba mga gumagamit dito ng pentax optios4i... ok kasi.. sa size... 4megapix and may optical zoom pa... ang kinakatakutan ko lang ndi po active yung distributor dito.. baka walang service center or baka mahal ipaayos? ok po ba ito sa tibay? or sa picture quality? what can u say about this cam? inaalok kasi sakin.. 19t with 2 lithium batts eh.. tnx in advance for ur answers..

btw.. what other alternatives ang maganda bilhin.. pag budget ko.. less than 25t including na dun yung 128 or 256 memory card... i was also looking at olympus c-50 eh.. but ang mahal eh... btw.. all i need is 3-4 megapix lang naman tlga.. with optical zoom tnx

**Ungas** · June 9th, 2004 01:46 PM
