sir phrozenkhold,

 

checked the website. and i noticed two kinds of units available: columbia and grey. ano difference nila? bakit mas mura yung grey unit? ano naman disadvantage nung grey unit?

 

thanks in advance!

 

 

Grey market camera units, are cameras smuggled from Hongkong or Singapore, and normally are only covered by a store warranty. Meaning should anything go wrong to your camera, you can only bring it to the store where you bought it from for repairs. Cameras imported though Columbia, the authorized importer, are covered by a one year warranty, and can be serviced/repaired at the Columbia Repair facilities.

hi guys ! i'm new to this photography thing. in fact my camera is less than a week old, i would like to know your comments about the pic that i am attaching to this post. Your criticism is much appreciated. :thumbsupsmiley:

 

Looks okay (is that the park at Greenbelt?), but if you are going to shoot night scenes without flash, use a tripod, to lessen the background blurring. Also, Im sure you were focusing on the "objaydah" in the middle of the fountain, but you could have used the 2/3rds rule: The focus of your shot should be 2/3 of your width/height to allow more background elements, not at dead center.

 

What were your settings? You camera? Your lens?

whats d proper way of storing an slr camera? when not using it...

 

Get a dry box, and store it in a dry place away from moisture or excessive temperatures, dust and direct sunlight. Also, having a moisture absorbent bag helps keep it dry.

 

and its okay ba to use un magic clothe na nabibili sa ace hardware for cleaning the lens?

tnx

 

The chamois cloth? I'm not too sure that's a good idea. You need a good, lint-free cloth, like those used to wipe eyeglasses. Better yet, look it up on the web, since I may have a different idea.

Bro hindi maganda yang magic clothe na iyan. Kung bibili ka ng panlinis ng lens mo, yung panlinis ng eyeglasses/shades ang bilhin mo. Meron din nmang yung specialized cloth(Nklimutan ko tawag e, usually made in Japan ito) na merong built in static para makuha yung mga dust particles sa lens mo...

I just got myself a Canon 30D and just trying to get myself used to it. Okey ba ito for a starter? It's basically just for home use, nothing out of the ordinary use. What should I be concerned about? Any websites out there that has information about shooting techniques and to learn more about the equipments and extras? thanks.

just to clarify - grey units are not necessarily smuggled units...it's just that it's not covered by the warranty of the local distributor...

 

if i went bought a unit in HK with HK warranty, and i brought it home, and want to have it serviced by the local distributor, then they will not service it under their warranty terms...i would be holding a grey unit in the philippines...doesn't mean i smuggled it in...
