pero katulad nga ng sinabi mo... walang vr ang d40... kaso ipon pa ulit ako ng pangdagdag... to go for a higher version...

not sure kung wala ung d40 dude, check mo rin sa reviews....

wag kang bibili ng lens na wala tong otion na to, otherwise
u'll be stock with ur tripod all the time! heheh

It's basically to reduce blurring....

-ditto-

afaik, VR Lens comes out with D60 KIT only....correct me if im wrong

same goes with other nikon models I guess...i.e. d80,d90..etc.
But what I'm stressing is to go for VR regardless of brand or models.
some brands call it differently but the point I wanna stress is the option.
non VR lens is a pain in the ass! hehehe

D80 Kit Lens doesn't go with VR.

baket wala dude kurdaps?

what's the option then?

nyaiy.. nalilito na ako... hehehehe

torvicz wrote:what's the option then?

Prime Lens, standard lens lang...Nikkor 18-135mm

@ ERICK: For starter, I advise you to go for D60.

For me bro..Personal preference and not a professional as well.Ito ay base lng sa mga kaopisina ko.i have 5 office mates using nikon. D40,D300,D80(2) and D90..All of them are good but for me D90 rocks talga. We are always comapring each time na may photoshoot and impress talga ako sa D90.Vibrancy ng color,sharpness and everything. D300 is good as well pero hindi ko ma justify yung price sa output na nakukuha nya.Maybe sa body talga which is talgang pang harabas.D90 kse is using CMOS sensor na and some good other feature as well and the ability sa low light.Pero syempre depende din sa gamit mong lente.D40 and D60 is good na din for starting and amateur photographers like us.Invest more on the lens. Pero ang bottom line-no matter what camera ure using,its really up to the person behind the viewfinder..

Prime lens is good lens talga especially indoor or low light photography.Mas sharp pa kuha nito compare to zoom lenses.Im planning to buy one,50mm f1.4..kso ipon muna.hehehehe..

my friend is disposing his canon 350d. oldie na pro if you're in a budget, mukhang ok na option. he's selling it for 15k. di ko lang alam ung current value pro un ung sabi nya sakin kanina.

yo boks, 15k for 350d? di ba mejo overpriced ata yan..?

onga e, naisip ko lang. hehe.

Erick here's something to consider:

1. D40 18-55 kit lens (P21k)
2. D60 18-55 VR lens (P28k)

or

3. D40 18-55 kit lens (P21k)
+
50mm 1.8fd - (P6k)

i'd recommend go for option 3 kung gagastos ka rin lang ng additional. superb ang 50mm 1.8 for night shots and portraits.

magkano dapat bro para maadvise ko? no idea talaga. hehe

hmm considering na 4 yrs old na ang 350d.. id probably get that for P10k or less.. otherwise id rather get the newer entry level DSLRs, mura na ngayon eh, with more features. although the 350d is still a good camera

thanks bro, posible nga. il tell him.
