Which Subaru WRX STi is best?
I must be lucky because my hawkeye still have zero problems. From what I've heard so far, all the rumors say the BRZ STi will not have turbo.- choka

Which Subaru WRX STi is best?
I have a 07 WRX and I agree with what alv4426 has to say. I won't buy a used one, knowing how I drive it, and how most people drive these cars. That being said, it's been 6 years and I have zero major issues with mine so far, so obviously I drive like a grandma.- choka

The NIKON Thread (Talk About Nikon Stuff here)
I really wonder if you want to buy a bundle because I still see a lot of junk in that b&h bundle. The only useful stuff there is the SD card and the filter, and (arguably) the spare battery. (for me, personally, i would only use the nikon battery) How much is it cheaper than buying them...- choka

Did you look at B&H, adorama, buydig, etc? Do you want everything included in that bundle? IMO the WiFi adapter is useless. You might be better off buying what you need individually instead of buying them as a bundle? If I were you, I'd get a D3200 with the kit lens and a fast prime...- choka

The NIKON Thread (Talk About Nikon Stuff here)
Sigh. Yet another discussion about Ken? Sigh... so here's my 2 cents again. My advice is that you should NEVER read kenrockwell. I do not think he has a deep understanding of the craft of photography and has a lot of false information which he think he's right in his dreams. For the...- choka

Quote: That is also true. D200 vs D800 then. D800 is still lighter and basically wins in every aspect.- choka

What do you shoot? Why is 1/200 sync speed vs 1/250 a deal breaker for you? You try to overpower the sun all the time? Are you sure you absolutely need 1/8000 shutter speed instead of 1/4000?- choka

why not get a d600? it's much cheaper than a d800, it has a similar body to that of a d7000, which is much lighter than d200. it's full frame, with all the modern features. with a pro lens like 24-70 attached, it might not weight much more than a d200 with a 18-55.- choka

the 18-55 is a consumer lens with variable aperture. The 24-70 is a pro lens with constant 2.8 aperture and much better weather sealed. It is not an equivalent to 18-55 DX- choka

Quote: You mean d200 without battery VS d800 with battery? :P From everything I read online, the difference in weight between the 2, with battery, is just around 20 grams or so. (d800 is 900g with battery, while d200 is 920g with battery) I actually have both of them and they feel...- choka

URGENT!!! AKG k702 vs k701
The only difference is really the color and the detachable cable. The cable won't make much difference to your father, so just buy it based on price and color preference.- choka
