bro..thats a maple leaf.....definitely not in malaysia i presume?

zies is the ultimate aps-c zoom lens mar... just wondering how will it perform in low light.....hmmmm

yea...i figured... i see that u are using a a700...same!

does the a700 low light performance compensate for the ziess "darkness" enough.....

meaning if u shoot at iso400/800 , in low light, no flash, are the photos "professional"- all other things constant eg : skill, wb, aperture, yada yada


professional - able to be convincingly beautiful(debatably i know), not noisy and sharp

finejava :

24-70..not ideal range for a aps-c zoom.... effectively it would be 35-100?...not to mention its 5k ++ price....ahahha.... my percentage meter will NEVER reach 100% like that haha... and with regards to the others...erm... focusing on a zoom...not yet time to play with the danger-primes yet...

neo_lam.... any personal dissapointments against this lens?....i know the benefits...everywhere got... ahahah.... no worries..if really no light..then can flash mar... or tripod...its still better than the 1870 by LEAPS

..
O_O....
very nice walkabout lens...easy to upgrade to ff also good...but 2.5x the pricing....


very interesting..... u have many dangerous lenses...i shall not ask about the 85mm 1.4 ...... i shall not say a word....


problems would be the range as well as the "no wide shots" for zoom.... can u fit group shots in?

i see.. 5.4k vs 2.5k... ahhaha..great..... ill start with the 16-80..i think the 24-70 is out of my budget..but oh ssm..and oh f2.8...

how is the sharpness at f2.8 by the way?

here i have the comparison chart...

if used on apsc... the 24-70.....will give u 38mm?!?? ....hardly wide actually..

hmmm that is debatable lwliam....i actually dont really like distorted photos...i find them.......weird a bit ahahah...also fisheye is not to my taste...

if i can find the perfect focal range that begins JUST before distortion sets in....that would be my ideal wide!

so it depends on individual pref though...

given the choice(leave money out of the equation)..id gladly take the 24-70.... but funds dont allow....the f 2.8 and SSM would be PWNING!

i can see...ahahah from ur gears...u r just waiting to go FF...i on the other hand...prolly wont go..... i dont see the need...

how much did u purchase ur 24-70? and how do u find the focusing on the a700? fast ah...ahehehehheh

expected of a RM5k lens.... ahhaha..welll im now 10% of my 16-80...meaning only 5% of my 24 to 70... gosh..dis is not going well

shame on u finejava...ahahah....corrupter of the innocent

weh..i still student la... no CC also..ahhaha...all my equipment is HARD EARNED cash... hahahahah....

wish i could though...nvm...i will persevere!....

pss..notice my siggie
