I am itching for an UWA... mainly for landscape, not for portraits

should I get tammy 11-18mm or siggy 10-20mm HSM?
price different between the two is RM400 apart where tammy is cheaper

Thoughts of the RM400 difference
1. Would extra 1mm wide and 2mm tele make much of a difference
2. Shooting landscape don't really need HSM, don't see the point. Of course I think the reason siggy put HSM is because so that there won't be gear stripping issues in alphas
3. Don't care much about built for landscape shoot, more interested in quality, both centre and side

What are your thoughts?

PS: No intention of getting Sony because it is just tammy rebadged

hmm... after a quick browse through google using keyword "ultra wide angle", a website pop a thinking that made be re-think should I get an UWA. This is because the reason for me to get UWA is to "getting it all in". Getting an UWA should not be in this case

Need more practice !!

Complete at http://www.chongwaikong.com under 2009 - Model Shoot - Ginyi at Bukit Jalil Park (its a flash site, so no direct link )

why F11?
your main subject is the person, at that size of the person, you should shoot at the biggest aperture your lens can provide, but preferably F2.8 and above
due to setting to F11, the camera will say it is too dark and will set at 0.8sec which will get handshake

ain't the answer is simple
you found these codes from sigma lens
so go to sigma website to find out!!

here, a bit spoon feeding

#1 - Siggy, Tammy, Siggy



#2



#3 - Lenspen Sensorklear Loupe + Lenspen Sensorklear II = RM190

siggy 70-200mm F2.8 RM3200 + UV Filter RM150 = Total RM3350
tammy 17-50mm F2.8 RM1450 + UV Filter RM150 = Total RM1600
siggy 10-20mm RM1850 + UV Filter RM150 = RM2000

all 3 gray

Added on May 31, 2009, 3:13 pmjust shot some in the resort surroundings using 10mm
wow, not easy
move either a bit to the right or left, the horizontal horizon will not be straight. Move the camera to compensate the horizontal horizon also no effect. Have to move framing to left/right
