It now costs half the price than one year ago. This camera is incredibly well built. Full metal body, weatherproof, ultrasonic cleaning... No more worries about dust on the sensor. The viewfinder is exceptional too, with... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~158816505476 Tue, 19 Oct 2004 07:03:09 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_158816505476?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_155672940164?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - I didn't know anything about scanners but I needed one as I love shooting with film, but I like post-processing my pictures. So I followed the recommendations of the main reviews and forums I could see and went for this Coolscan. Minolta's scan dual IV... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~155672940164 Sun, 19 Sep 2004 14:49:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_155672940164?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_155671891588?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - I recently bought a used Aria and some cheap used prime lenses : 28mm, 50mm and 135mm. I payed all that about 900$. These lenses are really exceptionnally sharp, and they are fast too. But let's talk about the body. It's impressively small and light... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~155671891588 Sun, 19 Sep 2004 14:40:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_155671891588?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_155669204612?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - I just bougt this lens in replacement of the Nikon 70-300G. This one isn't more expensive but it's a lot better. Colors and contrast are better, and build quality is uncomparable. It's even better than the expensiver Nikon 70-300 ED. Nikon and Sigma... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~155669204612 Sun, 19 Sep 2004 14:11:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_155669204612?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_152790339204?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - I bought this lens because I needed a fast lens for indoor candids. It is very fast. AF is fast too and accurate. But the most important : this lens is SOOOOO sharp ! It's even sometimes TOO sharp for candids... Good for concerts, theatre (if... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~152790339204 Sun, 22 Aug 2004 14:18:01 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_152790339204?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_151769484932?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - I wanted a compact 35mm camera as second body, for b&w shooting. A sharp optical was my first need. There are several cheaper cameras with good lenses, like the olympus mju... But I looked also for something with at least some manual features. This... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~151769484932 Sat, 14 Aug 2004 22:19:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_151769484932?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_150865677956?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - I bought this flash used for my N75 and my N80. It's the best electronic flash I ever used. Not only Nikon's best, but the best of any brand. It has all the features that an electronic flash may have, and it is really easy and clear to operate. The... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~150865677956 Sun, 8 Aug 2004 18:39:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_150865677956?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_150832582276?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - I really love it. Keyboard is very confortable, screen is very good. Autonomy is impressive (5 hours being carefully). I really prefer the point stick instead of a touchpad. graphic card (ATI) has far better color reproduction than an integrated intel... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~150832582276 Sun, 8 Aug 2004 11:38:53 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_150832582276?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_150831271556?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - The A2 is in my eyes the best digital bridge camera on the market. It is well built, fast, easy to operate. Autonomy is very good (200 pictures, some with flash, and you can buy very cheap batteries on ebay) Its 80-200mm zoom is ideal. Comparing to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~150831271556 Sun, 8 Aug 2004 10:50:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_150831271556?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_150828125828?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - I bought this lens used as I needed a long zoom lens for portrait (I'm sparing money to buy the sigma 70-200 EX HSM...) It's not very crisp (I find it even soft above 200mm), colors and contrast are not the best but remember it's a 100$ zoom... It's... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~150828125828 Sun, 8 Aug 2004 09:36:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_150828125828?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_150826684036?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - That's the most crispy wide-angle zoom lens I ever seen. The AFS makes it really very fast too. It's now my all-purprose lens on my f80. The 24-120 VR has a longer zoom, but it's bigger, heavier, more exprensive and less... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~150826684036 Sun, 8 Aug 2004 08:38:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_150826684036?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_150826421892?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aristobal - It's small, light, fast, cheap, but it offers all the features needed for a beginner or an occasionnal user. Canon and Minolta offer more functions at the same price, but I really hate canon's ergonomics and minolta (nor pentax) doesn't have ultrasonic... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~150826421892 Sun, 8 Aug 2004 08:38:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_150826421892?linkin_id=8003929
