    FX Body with Effective high ISO's

    In that case, D750 fits the bill perfectly.

    From 30 April, you cannot withdraw your PF until you turn 58

    Makes me wonder if there's a scam going on with PF money or one planned for near future. If they can modify the PF bill like this, I wouldn't be surprised if one day the Govt announce they are seizing all PF funds for improving economy or whatever bogus excuse.

    FX Body with Effective high ISO's

    Yes, the ISO performance of D750 will be significantly better than your curent camera and the auto focus module is extremely good as well. I am not sure what kind of photography you do but if its for extreme lowlight or astro-photography then you may want to look at the Sony A7s cameras, they...

    Reliance Jio Rollout

    So March has come and still no word on public roll out. My guess is they'll probably push the public launch to Oct-Dec. :/

    Budget 2016-17: Announcements | Whats costlier & cheaper

    Xperia Z Series done and dusted - confirmed by Sony executive

    Even I was excited after the X series announcement as I am on the look out for a 4.7-5" phone. But if the german pricing is anything to go by then they are going to be over priced. Xperia X (with SD 650) @ €599 and Xperia XA (with Mediatek P10) @ €299. No pricing info about X performance but...

    Xiaomi Mi 5 launched.

    I'm betting pricing at either 20k,25k,30k or 25k,30k,35k if they feel as all the other phones with such specs are more than twice the prices.

    Fraudulent ACT

    Something is screwed up in their system. Speedtest always shows correct speed and even popular torrent which are probably cached download at proper speed. But Youtube videos (not the popular/desi ones) suffers buffering and many sites do lag as well. Really hoping for some competition in...

    Nikon 24-120 f/4. Pick or Kick?

    Portraits and Macro photography require some very opposite properties from the lens. One needs a smaller aperture for depth of field and corner to corner sharpness with very close minimum focusing distance where as the other requires a bit softness, character and thinner DOF produced by larger...

    Nikon 24-120 f/4. Pick or Kick?

    Oh, in that case get the Nikon 85mm 1.8G. None of the zoom lenses can come anywhere near that beast be it sharpness or low light capability or subject separation.

    Nikon 24-120 f/4. Pick or Kick?

    Its a good lens but a very old design, mainly popular for its build quality, weather resistance as well as decent sharpness. However, its another stop slower than the 24-120mm so not suitable for low light or subject isolation. I kinda get the feeling that you are more focusing on acquiring a...

    Nikon 24-120 f/4. Pick or Kick?

    The 24-120mm f4 is a very good (but not great) lens indeed but consider the facts that it costs much more and on your D5200 it will be effectively 36-180mm lens so you'll miss out a lot of the wide-angle range. The 17-50 f2.8 should suffice for most of the occasions not to mention its a full...

    Nikon 24-120 f/4. Pick or Kick?

    @harshit143 That lens is usually used with FF cameras. If you want great optical quality with VFM, I'd suggest the 17-50mm f2.8 and 70-300mm f4-5.6 lenses from Tamron. Both are critically acclaimed by the users and both have very good Image Stabilization. This way, you get both normal fast...

    Was it not A rated ? This is the reason I'll never watch any R rated movie in Indian movie theater.

    Need Suggestion for Buying Camera Lens for DSLR

    @Steven Dsouza Out of the three lenses you have selected, first two are more suitable for Full Frame cameras and the last one is a telephoto. Since you only asked about one lens and your friend doesn't seem to have a specialty, I'd suggest to get the Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM. It is a...

    Rate the Last Movie You Saw...

    Star Wars : The Force Awakens - Don't waste your money on this / 10 . It basically felt like a fan made film. Lot of overacting, no cohesion in stories most of which is rehashed. Only positive was Han's sarcastic dialogues.
