Canon: 17-55 f2.8 vs 24-105 f4

pusamus — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 01:12:17 +0800

I'm contemplating between the two. Mind you:

1. I have 60D and plan to shoot videos
2. I currently use Tamron 17-50 f2.8 non-VC
3. My hand shakes and Im using monopod
4. I plan to shoot videos inside and outside
5. I have 11-16 Tokina too. So it covers wide angle

So, I know 17-55 is bit cheaper (best deal: 3250) vs 24-105 (best deal: 3340). But it got f2.8 while the "L" lens is only f4. f4 is OK if I shoot photo because flash can always compensate that, but the f4 is a "L" lens, the build quality is a killer. What do you guys think?

EU vs US servers: latency

pusamus — Mon, 23 May 2011 12:19:45 +0800

Well, since I used to reside in USA and Europe and I have accounts on both server. Unfortunately , I'm back to Malaysia for good.. I'm planning to go back to Azeroth. But from what I read, most of us use US server.. although the europe is nearer to us than USA (7 hours flight vs 12 hours flight).

Does anybody have info on EU vs US server latency? I need to have concrete info before I plunged my time and money activating either of my account.
