QUOTE(celciuz @ Jul 4 2010, 01:53 PM) Sigma silent? Sure or not... As far as I know the SWMs are the best for Nikons. I can't even hear my 16-35 focusing at all! I tried Sigma 24-70 2.8 on D700, I can't hear the focus sound.   |

i dun care if d AF is noisy as long as its fast n not noisy as Tamron's, lol
but i can say Sigmalux definitely AF way faster than Nikkor 50 f/1.4G faster more silent than 18-55 18-55 when focus have 'screeching' like not enuf lubricant  |

50mm f/1.4G is slow, slower than the 50mm f/1.4D also anyways LOL.
50mm f/1.4D on D3s -> VERY fast... |

Yes... haha those AF-D really shine with a good high end body! No wonder some of the pros don't want to change to the AF-S. Really fast the D3s twist the 50mm f/1.4D. Yesterday went to shoot event friend brought his new D3s, 14.7k!!! Arghhh, but lucky I'm immune.. gonna wait for D700's replacement xD.

body motor AF is fast, but still short of few advantages SWM offers, such as less noisy AF n full time MF override

My friend the funniest lor, only got 50mm to use with his D3s. Nikon's most expensive body(excluding D3x) pair with Nikon's cheapest lens oh wait, is 50mm 1.4D rite? mistaken for 1.8D This post has been edited by General_Nic: Jul 4 2010, 02:23 PM |

guys i saw this brochure from nikon times square. Did you notice nikon d5000 they put "nikon DX-format CCD image sensor"
i think this catalog is misleading. Anyone notice this? This post has been edited by vexus: Jul 4 2010, 07:17 PM |
