Oh photography has all along been his hobby but he has stopped indulging in it for some time but he wants to pick it up againOriginally posted by Fatum:hubby picking up photography = less shopping moolah for elindra .....![]()
Well if he's into insect porn he is welcome to test-drive my gear. But if he 's into landscapes and stuff sorry, I don't own a wide angle lense.Originally posted by elindra:Oh photography has all along been his hobby but he has stopped indulging in it for some time but he wants to pick it up again
It's either a new PC for me or a new camera
I want new PC![]()
S$4,999.99 is under 5 grand tooOriginally posted by av98m:Just under 5 grand?
Or he can try Kopi's camera which will be even more expensive.
But seriously, what will he be doing with the camera?
well ... you can do the standard thing wifeys do to keep their hubs inline and with hold marital access rights until he gives up .....Originally posted by elindra:S$4,999.99 is under 5 grand too
Assuming it is something like yours, what would it cost?
Gee, I think i'll work hard at talking him into buying a normal digital camera
Alas, I'm not that evil and I don't control his finances like how alot of women do. Maybe stupid on my side.Originally posted by Fatum:well ... you can do the standard thing wifeys do to keep their hubs inline and with hold marital access rights until he gives up .....![]()
$12,000 !!!!!Originally posted by the Bear:actually, i'd recommend a D2x with the works... what does he want to take? insect porn like av or long range shots?
the lens has to be VERY fast for the D2x..
and he'll need a flash booster too... to power the flash..
all in all, about.. say.. $12,000
I'm still gagging.Originally posted by the Bear:muahahahaha
okay.. so no dSLRs then.. or just the workhorse, D70 or D200... both are pretty good
all kinds of lenses and booster, D200 will set you back.. maybe $6k to $7k
D70 is cheaper.. it's not as fast so no need for boosters.. maybe $4k
the other thing would be to go for the nikon 8800 or the sony top-of-the-range one.. they're good too

Nothing in the 2k range so I can arrow that to him?
Ahhh this is a better priceOriginally posted by the Bear:okay okay.. here's one..
Sony DSC-R1
click here => It's a Sony
retail = $1,699... i think can get cheaper
i go look for the Nikon one..

Ahhahaha ok 2 for him to compareOriginally posted by the Bear:guess what? the D2Xs is out!
anyway, the N8800
click here => Nikon!
retail about 1 1/2 years ago was $1,788
the guys from Ikea just called... back later
