Oh I know that answer, D300 i'm pretty sure
Lol! That I have no Idea about, you'll have to wait for teh man to come back to answer that oneThat wouldn't be Tristan's, would it?
Nup, mine's still sitting here waiting for a buyer. I do know someone who's posted in the last two pages who might though...That wouldn't be Tristan's, would it?
Well you know someone now!Everyone uses this argument, which is fine, but in the past three years of taking photos i've never once had a card fail, and know exactly zero people who have had a card fail. It seems like one of those internet scare-tactics to get people not to buy large CF cards (there are lots of those going 'round at the moment...be careful...
I have one sitting on my self at home gathering dust. It was only a 2gb card, but it still failed. I have yet to figure out why.
okie dokie, what do those modes do?? i've only skimmed over the manuel of the camera haha, i've started to use manuel this morning chaning aperture shutter speed iso the usealIntroduce yourself to M, Av and Tv asap
Read it front to back at least twice, then come and ask questions about the stuff you don't understand.
if you don't learn what Av Tv M can do for you, it's equivalent to buying a high end mountain bike and only riding around in first gear
I just lol'd. I constantly wonder a little why the higher end cameras have modes like landscape etc, i just come to the fact that its there to attract customers to the more flashy cameras, so they don't feel out of thier depth having to fiddle with all the settings, I don't think i've ever used any of the landscapeish settings ( i repeat landscape because i can't remember the others
)
In terms of Canon, anything 5D and above (note: this does not mean 7D) is without silly auto modes.I just lol'd.

I've never had the money to got 5D and Above
hence my unknowingness haha. Yeah I was basing my comments around canons, seeings they are really the only DSLRs i've had a good go with.
I disagree, I've never read a manual for my camera... Just play around and see what does what, then google it.

G'day mate; i was in the same market as you not so long ago. I ended up buying a Nissin di622 (i think thats right?) from ebay; set me back about $150. It's a decent flash on body (definitely a step up from the built in flash) but you definitely get what you pay for. It also only has optical triggering when in slave mode (ie. it needs the light for another flash to fire it) which works well in a controlled situation but is a bit of a pain otherwise. I regret not buying one of the cactus (i forget the model) flashes coupled with a v4 trigger; they are simpler, easier and generally more effective.
