QUOTE(ieR @ Apr 5 2011, 09:26 PM) during the convention, we tested the 70200 HSM (sigma) and when test the 70200G, the speed of the SSM is farrrrrrrrrrr more faster then HSM, it made HSM seem so slow. and due to the sigma's quality sharpness only start at F4 (shoot an event with it, F2.8 is crap) i rather go for tamron even it's claimed slow(website review usually gotten canon/nikon test unit, which has lousy built in motor), but sony's A mount uses screw driven, and newer body somehow focuses faster (some friend claim the beercan runs faster on A55/580 vs older body) ED, Thx for the opinion  Btw, I manage to capture gymkhana via my beercan with A550 body .. it running fast   QUOTE(yuhi @ Apr 5 2011, 09:37 PM) Why is there no love for the minolta's legendary 80-200mm f2.8??? This is super rare item, cost RM3k++  I can't find it until today  This post has been edited by boyzone: Apr 5 2011, 10:18 PM |

QUOTE(yuhi @ Apr 5 2011, 10:19 PM) You can't find it because nobody wants to sell it But some of the review from dyxum forum claimed that the lens is with poor performance  Must be a great lens!  |

QUOTE(yuhi @ May 27 2011, 11:01 PM) Boyzone: I know it might be harsh to say this. But the leaves are damn distracting in all your pics. Hahaha! Try a tighter crop in pic 1 to remove the leaves, and try out B&W for pic 3 to see whether the bird stands out more. |
