QUOTE(Eiraku @ Nov 5 2015, 10:35 AM) Travel = Sirui T-0025x Carbon Fibre tripod. Light and steady as a rock, without even breaking the 1k mark. That said, being light does mean it has fewer features compares to other "fully-featured" tripods. Like the Manfrotto BeFree CF, if you have the dough (they cost a bit more). Why CF? Light and vibration dampening. Why NOT CF? Expensive ler lol. I thought CF should be a lot stiffer and less flexing compared to aluminium? |

QUOTE(Eiraku @ Nov 6 2015, 12:26 AM) Yes it is... at the same time it dampens (absorbs) vibrations better than aluminium. It prolly sounds weird that something stiffer than aluminium can be more vibration absorbant but that's just how CF is. That said I've yet to have enough dough to get myself my own CF Tripod so I personally don't know how it is in practice lol. hmm... interesting. But the difference would be pretty negligible I think? |

QUOTE(Eiraku @ Feb 14 2016, 11:58 PM) Well, lenses costing multiple times what your body (or any body) can fetch is actually pretty normal lol. Try googling how much the Nikkor 5.6/13 AIS or the ginormous Sigma 2.8/200-500 can cost and you'll get what I mean. But I agree, the 1018 is pretty sweet. From time to time I do end up mulling the sale of my Samyang 12 to get one, if not just for the flexibility. until you see Canon 1200mm f5.6  |
