Hi, everyone, fresher for this thread.

Got A33 1 week ago with 18-250mm lens. My 1st SLR
Sharing:
Though of Tamron 18-200 or sony 18-250 before, yet go through some review condemn a lot on Tamron (sorry for Tamron fans, but this is wat I read),things like slow AF, suck dust etc.

Tested on this 2 lens at the shop, photo shooting hard to see the diff. Yet for movie continuous focus, Tamron took 4-5 sec to focus whereas sony lens 2.5 sec. Hence sony is my choice although tamron offer an attractive price.

cons
sweep panaroma function setting is fixed by sony, apperture, shutter speed, iso can't touch.
short battery life

others - up to my expectation.

Question:
Thinking of 50mm f1.4 or 50mm f1.8? Use mainly for boker.

Pls advise, thk.

Welcome to the club. Invest in 2nd battery or 3rd even. In general f1.4 offers better bokeh than f1.8. If you can afford, go for f1.4 as it's also compatible with Full Frame DSLR (or DSLT). tongue.gif

Agree... Go early. Try a few shots before the moment. Get a tip from the manager on how the event will go. I will normally use F5.6, 1/60, ISO400/800 & flash on auto mode.

evilhomura89 : I kinda like no. 6. I believe you are using "Standard" setting here. Perhaps you can try "other" setting to get a feel on the image taken. Like what shootkk said..Keep shooting!! biggrin.gif

P/S : Saw the same posting in DPreview forum as well....
