Why wanna break the hood?

albnok : Thanks for the comments. I sometimes do find it a bit difficult trying to align the edges using an UWA. Tilt a little this way or that way and the edges can really run off! Hahaha!

zstan : Wah! You go to Korea take pics of leng lui only ar? I dunno ler but this pic I feel the tummy a bit big ler... better she cover it. Hahaha! Otherwise I feel the shot is a wee bit soft? Hands shaking when in front of the leng lui?

tummy look nice ! sui, cantik, pretty ! 

sifu william, these the pic


all were same setting, zoom range at 80mm, F5.6, shutter 1/125, iso 800, fill flash -0.7

naise!

zstan : If it's ghosting then it should be the same in every shot right? But that's not the case. In some shots it runs more. Some shots it runs less. And yes I do have a filter on but the filter stays on for all the shots.

You mean same grade as SAL18250? Of course that lens will be sold off.

And if happen to go for 17-70, of course the 17-35 will go off in sales thread.

I don't see any good review on the 17-50 f/2.8 just yet.

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.

I'm not bothered with constant F/2.8. If I ever need bright aperture lenses, I would just stick with prime lens.

I just want to replace SAL18250. The focus ring build for this lens is not suitable for video and needed more range than 17-35. HSM is just a bonus, and of course I favor it more than SAM lenses. The Sigma 18-250 seems to be a good option, but heck... I think I would get a telephoto prime lens first.
