Guys,

I saw my friend using Wide Lens Converter on his D3000...what purpose of ths thing?
*
specs wise purpose, to make ur lens take wider pics
in reality, purpose is to get easy cash frm newbies

talking about the tammy 1750 f2.8, the unability to focus in low light condition has been overrated.

i am a happy owner of this lens for a year now. i got it when i joined my friend for a shooting themed "drug addicts". as you can imagine, shooting a "drug addict" in an abandoned house in pekeliling with limited light source, our light source was only from the candle. it had no focus hunting at all.

i am very satisfied to say that this lens, with it's price, worth every cent that you spent. during the shooting, the rest of my gang were using 18-105, the result was my tammy, without focus hunting problem + wide aperture @ 2.8, won hands down!!

i know it's unfair to compare 18-105 with this tammy 17-50 because they are totally different class - not apple to apple comparison, but with it's price of slightly more (18-105 RM800 vs 17-50 RM1000), i have never regret getting this lens smile.gif

another point i'd like highlight is, the "slow" focus speed is also being overrated. the "slower" different is only in split seconds, less than 1 second, not that it's slower by few seconds. Even it's noticeably slower, but for me it's bearable. because i am not a sport photographer or wedding photographer where i need to capture the important moment all the times.

dont be afraid to try out the any lens, because you wont lose much by buying a 2nd hand lens (you can find them in lyn garage sales), then selling it after a while. very likely that you will only lose rm50, or rm100, or even wont lose a single cent if you take good care of the lens.

happy shooting smile.gif

Den I wait General Nic answer, he pick Sigma sure got solid reason.... Thinking of getting 35mm but worried the depth of field n bokeh not that nice, will b wasted... so now save up to go 50mm better
*
Sigma is sharper at wide open, but not gonna make much difference
Sigma bokeh is definitely creamier, but doesnt make Nikkor's sux like rubbish la
d reasons i get Sigma is solid built(nikkors feels plasticky imo),
large front element which proved to contribute to less vignetting n better in low light
n 1 more is Sigma has 2 yrs warranty laugh.gif

both r good actually, some choose Nikkor bcos is lighter n smaller for portability
