Hard? Your choices are narrowed down to only AF-S lenses. It's making it easier to choose la tongue.gif

even earlier according to latest rumor.
New MBP will be announced on 24 Feb (US time). So roughly Friday here

With SB? Considering that there's the recent announcement of the design flaw in the chip, I don't think it would be a right time to get it hmm.gif

hi all, is it worth if i sell my 18-105mm kit lens and buy tamron 17-50mm for wedding photography?

I believe the Tamron 17-50 would definitely have better optics and sharpness, not to mention the fast f/2.8 fixed aperture, which is very useful for low light shooting. But on the downside, it only extends up to 50mm only, compared to the 105mm of your kit lens.

Perhaps a 35 f/1.8? 50mm could be a little tight smile.gif

heck man new ipad 2 is coming out... plan to get it for photoediting or should i opt for other lens... hmm

If I get one, then it's purely as a photo gallery to promote my own work hahaha biggrin.gif tongue.gif

Anyway, it's also good la if you're a freelance photographer, with the ipad as a digital picture gallery, you can showcase your own work to potential clients. Portable Portfolio on the go yeah!

Anyway, I'm waiting for something better which have at least the following la(important for photogs also)

+ Higher resolution screen. 1024x768 is nothing much to shout about. Would love at least 720p or 1080p laaa
+ SDHC/CF memory card slot laaaa. What else? tongue.gif
+ USB 2.0 input also, to transfer all those pictures(data)
+ Multi tasking?
