我一直用開PROSUMMER機(MINOLTA DiMAGE 5)
早排壞左.

原本想平平地買部二手FZ50的,但剛見到350D減價!
(EOS 350D 套裝連一支 EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 鏡頭 HK$ 4,480)
因我估350D二手價應該會比以前平,

而家唔知點好...買二手FZ50 or 350D抵玩d???
影風影和動物多.

另外想買sony A100而家賣幾錢??

I have A100, 350D & FZ50, if u want only one lens for all, the FZ50 is a good choice, its lens is very very sharp, the M.I.S. is also very effective, but beware it's noise control above ISO200 is NOT THAT GOOD, a lot of posterisation (oil-paint like) occurs.

If u want to invest more on lens, flash etc. 350D is very good choice.

For A100, the color is very attractive, but noise control is so so, also the autofocus speed is not very good in dim lighted enviroment, beware!

I suggest u buy a 350D kit & a sigma 70-300 APO (2nd hand around $900) AND a 2nd hand flash 420EX or 380EX.

Avoid use the 18 mm of the kit lens of 350D because of very bad distortion & chromatic aberration.

ALSO don't waste $ to buy the 17-85 for its wide angle is even worth than the 18-55 kit

Although I have both 350D and FZ50, I still have similar problem.

When I have a long shootout and need long focal length lens, which one should be my major camera ?

Grain and ultra tele of the FZ50 are the major contradiction
The 20M byte raw file size per shot in FZ50 is another consideration.

I finally give up to shoot RAW in FZ50, the RAW is just too large (it takes 3-6 sec to save, depends on the SD card speeD). Even though the SILKYPIX jpeg comes out very very good, I must give up!

I use saturation: low, contrast low: sharpness low, noise reduction: low to shoot in jpeg now.

When I travel, I take R1 & FZ50 (as a tele lens AND a movie recorder, I just discovered that very good quality MOV files can be taken with this jewelry FZ50, the movie quality is comparable to JVC's MC200 CF card DV)
