QUOTE(soulfly @ Dec 9 2008, 07:39 PM) 16105 is Sony design. It was supposed to be an updated version of the CZ1680 but Carl Zeiss did not approve the design and forbid Sony from using the T* coating on the lens. Therefore it's sold as a normal lens. This means that this lens is as good as the Carl Zeiss 16-80 but without the Zeiss T* coating. As for 18250, it's just Tamron design. so can i say the quality is comparable btwn CZ1680 vs SAL16105?? omg..abit heartpained >.< btw...just a short survey...how many lenses do u guys usually bring..say for a trip?or normal outting?? i currently hving 50mm prime + cz1680.......might get a SAL70300G as a gift..but nt sure whether i would utiliz all the 3 lenses anot..coz my crumpler bag can only bring 2..lol..don wanna neglect any of my lens

QUOTE(kysham @ Oct 8 2008, 12:50 AM) hanafi: Any flash diffuser that can mount of the head of the Canon 580 EX II will fit the Sony F58. Why, because I tried the Lambency that was designed for the 580EX II and it fits nicely on the F58:  That is my hand holding the F58 attached with a Lambency that I detached from a 580EX II. sorry for quoting something old.. found this post while googling.. so, that's for F58.. how bout F42?? can use Canon 420 EX ka??

Don't think so... Signither just quoted a photo where I was holding the F58 with Lambency attached. I was just playing around with it. Not really taking photos with it. So can't really judge if it is any good or not. Should be acceptable, I think? Any Lambency users here?

Lambency anytime for me, but sometimes I felt that it's pretty heavy and distracting. I'm using Demb now. Kinda like it due to its weight.

Stofen Omnibounce for the compact & easy to carry, Lambency for the sheer additional surface area it offers.
