I currently have a kit 18-105. I've been more interested in street photo and portrait shots. I've been debating over the 35mm 1.8, 50mm 1.4, or Tamron 17-50 2.8. What do you guys think? Thanks. |
^ 35mm |
How much do you guys think a sigma 17-70 f2.8-4.5 is worth? What's a better all around lens for the price? Posted via RS Mobile |
isn't the 2.8-4 better and newer? it's either that or the tamron in this price range |

^ i've had a sigma 17-70 before and it was pretty good for the price. the f2.8 is actually only from 17-20mm then it goes up, but for what it costs vs (back then) canon's 17-85 f4-5.6, i was pretty pleased. had a sharp copy too :) some people don't like the "warm glow" it provided though but i was always particular to the warmth. |
i have the sigma 17-70 haha. it was the first lens i bought after i got my first camera earlier this year. im just wondering what would be a nice upgrade for around the same price range. mine isnt every sharp shooting people but its sharp when shooting objects. the pictures it takes are kinda soft. im just asking for a price check because i think i got ripped off. i bought it for $400 and i see some for cheaper but with os hsm but not in the best condition. but i got mine mint with everything in the box. right now im trying to figure a price to sell it for. @moky, i love the warm glow too! i like to increase the temperature when editing on top of the glow haha |
and, the new lens in the bag, Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 ATX DX : http://www.epicdevelopements.com/wp-...11/06/lens.jpg edit: arrrg, dust! :blushsmile: |
Sigma AF 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC HSM OS macro >> Sigma AF 17-70mm f/2.8-4.5 DC macro |
yeah I have the HSM OS and it's a pretty good walkaround lens, I stopped using my 17-40 L because of the OS helps loads at night without a tripod. It's very sharp, maybe you should just upgrade to it |
so i've discovered the Tokina 11-16 does work with my sensor(aps-h), however, when @ 11mm, the hood comes into view! http://www.epicdevelopements.com/wp-...awning1000.jpg |
Seems it pulls extrawide I love my Tokina. Great lens! Poor man's version of the Nikon 14-24 |
Has anyone used the MP-E 65? It seems like a really neat lens Any suggestions for macro lenses, flowers, bugs, small objects etc.? |
Im looking for a little more reach from my 70-200. Anyone know anything about the Kenko MC4 1.4x Teleconverters? Reviews are a hit and miss with this thing. Some people say its as good as the Nikon TC-14E, and others say its shit. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...4_AF_1_4X.html http://static.bhphotovideo.com/image...345/674591.jpg |
What do you think of the Canon EF 35-105mm Zoom Lens f/4.5-5.6 for $30 dollars. Basic use, just bored of my kit lens from my t2i. The only thing is that the electronic is disabled ? Getting it on ebay, and this is what the seller is saying. " The electronics for this lens have been disconnected and the aperture set on full. " So this pretty much means manual focus ? anything else i should know about it ? Spoiler! etc.. |
I'm still looking for a new prime and I'm not sure which one I should get. I'm either thinking the 35mm 1.8D or the 24mm 2.8D. I was leaning towards the 24mm since it's a wider prime and would be interesting to play with one. I currently have a 50mm 1.4D and a 85mm 1.8D as my primes. Also, anyone have any experience with the Nikon 24-70mm 2.8? Thinking of upgrading from my 17-50mm 2.8 to one of them. |

what kind of ultra wide angel are out there for canon full frame? i currently know there are: Canon 17-40 Canon 16-35 Sigma 12-24 what other options r out there? im looking for a UWA that is good quality and a decent price, so the 16-35 is out of the question TIA |
I like the Canon 17-40 F4L on a crop, but i LOVE it on full-frame! |

16-35 2.8L or 17-40L + 55 FD 1.2 + 85 1.2L Or scrap the 85 1.2L and buy a 70-200 2.8 IS MK1? All being paired to a 5D. |
Tamron SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di II LD IF or Sigma AF 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC HSM OS |
^been looking at the same lenses and people prefer the tamron one more |
the sigma lens is the one that's optically better... it's also much more $$. |
Anyone used a Sigma 24 f1.8 Macro before? Looking to get rid of my zoom lenses and use only primes. |
