If I were to choose a full-frame, should I go for the 5D Mark III or the 6D?

Sis Prunella, curious lang, when did you get the 5D Mark III? (:

[Prunella]

^ Heya, 1st wk of Sept. It's a birthday gift from my husband. I hardly use it. I only tried it twice, methinks. The new generation has a different interface kasi (I can operate my mk Ii and 50d with eyes closed). Still too lazy to familiarize myself with it since I'll only resume shooting/working in January.

[molybdenumstudios]

^ If I were to get a FF, it would be that camera. Well, ma-OC kasi ako masyado eh, lalo na sa features so just in case I might go FF, I'll go for a 5D Mark III. (:

[Prunella]

It's a great camera. It has phenomenal AF points but that's all I can say for now. Mk II isn't bad either (It's been my trusty companion for a while)   but it's old. Mk III is a good choice.

Im going to buy Nikon D3200. Mga sis anong recommended nyo na SD card to use? Brand and class? thanks!

[molybdenumstudios]

^ Secure Digital (:

[kristinebarrios]

^yes sis that's what SD stands for right? May certain brand ba na maganda na mabilis basahin at hindi nagcocorrupt? May nagsabi sa kin Transcend Class 10 daw bilhin ko.

[molybdenumstudios]

^ Apologies. SanDisk pala ang okay na card. (:

[kristinebarrios]

^anong class sis? Class 10 type ba dapat? How about Imation?

[molybdenumstudios]

^ hmm I think so, too. I'm not very familiar about the class thing, all I know is the "fast speed" and the SDHC/SDXC thing (:

My future inlaws just bought me a Canon T3i for my birthday. I am so blessed to have such wonderul parents ( inlaw). Though I have no ide what i'm gonna be doing with a very heavy camera lol. I am so used to a film slr kasi.

Hmmmm... actually carrying a DSLR is only ideal for mostly, travel, special events pero kapag casual lang, I think P&S.

Hi! Yes, I don't use my DSLR pang-casual lang.. I usually use my iPhone pag casual lang :-D. Pag travel? Ayoko na din.. kasi nga mabigat. I have a P&S naman na waterproof which I use pero I am thinking of getting a P&S na may manual settings so that I can use it for travels. I usually use my DSLR pag may funshoot lang.

[whatswithjuly]

me too. i want to buy waterproof P&S for travels. hirap dalhin ng dslr. like when we went to kwebang lampas last week. hirap punta sa cave...takot ko lang madapa na hawak un dslr so i left my camera na lang sa tent. wala tuloy akong pictures.

I totally agree with the weight of the DSLR. Much easier to bring your P&S camera. It's hard to lug around a heavy camera if you're touring and have to walk around a lot. Not to mention bringing all those different types of lenses. And they ADD more to the weight. Though you get pretty pictures it's just a hassle for me especially when you're in a hurry.

hi, sino users ng d3200 or d5100? torn between these 2 -_-

although palabas na rin d5200 pero tingin ko mahal pa yun. beginner here pa lang, never used a dslr.

[whatswithjuly]

d5100 user here. although mas maganda un color ng d3200 kasi meron red, i still prefer d5100 sa features. yun color lang na red ang gusto ko sa d3200 hehe..

Mga sis, ayaw mag-auto focus ng Canon 600D ko.  Actually di naman ginagamit madalas ang AF, pero yung fact na somethings wrong with my camera... So what I did was to 1. exchange my 2 camera's lenses. Nilipat ko yung lens ng 1100D ko sa 600D ko, pero ayaw pa rin mag-auto focus sa 600D. When I used the 1100D, nag-auto focus siya. So hindi lens ang problem. 2. Cleaned my camera para sigurado, baka dumi lang (8 months old pa lang dslr ko) 3. Tried clear settings - ayaw pa rin 4.  AF/AE no lock - wala pa rin...  Ano kaya problem nito? Papacheck ko na rin siya sa service center next week. Nakakalungkot lang, para akong may alagang may sakit.

mga sis tanong ko lang, ano ba mas okey canon or nikon? thanks

[bleucharmz22]

I'm planning to give my hubby a DSLR camera, anong magandang brand for beginner?
