Even worse, but I'll have to admit the image quality of the Pentax is quite good.

That's why it's that much better than the Nikon. Though I'm still sticking with my NEX system as it's that much better for the same price.

Lightroom will keep all of your edits so you can go back whenever you wish. Photoshop will throw away all of your edits when you quit the program.

Anyone know where I can get a Manfrotto 323 RC2 System Quick Release Adapter with 200PL-14 Plate but jus the Quick Release Adapter?

Everyone is selling it with the plate but I already have the plate from my tripod and don't need 2 of them.

It's but just the bottom part.

^^^ That part is not available retail - you'll need to have it ordered in as a special order as it is considered a spare part. That particular part number is R308.90, and should cost about $30. I just checked Manfrotto's Canadian warehouse inventory and they do have it in stock. Shouldn't take more than 2 weeks to get it in.

For 323RC2 part numbers, download the below .pdf:

If it costs $30 I might as well just order both of it right? It's like $30ish for both pieces already

^^^ Yep. it'll only be about $10 cheaper - I would keep the other plate as a spare just in case you lose the original or use it on a second body.

who here has used extension tubes? thinking of increasing my macro's capabilities. no optics means no loss of IQ, right? i'm looking at a set of Kenko's, around $150.

little demo with the tubes. need a lot more time to use them but this is with the 20mm only. getting in closer is awesome, but not cropping too much is proving to be awesome too. i can hardly wait to do a stacked subject.

^ It's 399.99. For the price it's not bad but if you want a more versatile travel shooter the 18-200 is better but that's at 900 bucks a pop. Though one thing I'm not a fan of with this zoom is the aperture; 4.5-6.3. At 399.99 I can't complain much and I'll be heading to the Caribbean next week so tons of sunshine there! I do hope they make a G lens zoom with a F2.8 for the NEX. ( I'm dreaming I know ).

Maybe I should just save up money and buy an A77 so I have an excuse to buy A-Mount lens.

Anyway, from some test shots I did, the quality seem pretty good for the price.

Well you could always go fast a-mount lens + the new a-mount to e-mount adapter but it's really not worth it. Got some pics of it on the Nex?

^ The E-A mount is like 450 man. I might as well buy an A77 or Buy an NEX-7 lol. The adapter really caters to people who own A-mount camera(s) or the SUPER 35 FS100 camcorder.

Yeah I'll post photos soon!
