Read here for the color balance
http://www.alphanatics.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3489

Pre TTL (Through the lens) : A miliseconds burst of flash light will appear to measure the light onto the subject and record back into the camera. Once it calculated it will fire the real actual flash.

ADI: Distance encoder (require lens that support it ). Will measure based on the focal length chipsets inside the lens and inform what the camera body to set for the flash.

Pre TTL better or ADI?TY

i don't mind the 24mm range on the wide end as i rarely use the 18- 25mm range on my kit lens anyway. Most of my shots are portraits and using wide distorts the face. A big no no.

I've tried the tamron 17-50. TBH, not very impressed with the build quality. It's so so only.

i replaced my kitlens with sigma 17-70.. I needed a wide and sharp lens. i dun mind that it is not fixed 2.8 because a flash is still needed for lo-light indoor shots...smile.gif...try the lens..its really sharp

i think i read in lenspen.com that we should not blow air through the VF....hence i did not bother cleaning it...can anyone confirm this?

Besides, how do u guys clean the rear glass of the lens?

WindY2K: i chose the 17-70mm over the tamron 17-50mm f2.8 and siggy 24-70mm 2.8. The reason: I want a sharp lens and i hardly shoot with 2.8 (or lower)for group pics...(FYI, i shoot mostly indoor/party pix). F2.8 is a bit too shallow for me, and 24mm is a bit too tight on my aps-c(a200). i need a lens with a mdf that doesnt require me to get off from my sit just to shoot the person that is sitting next to me, (17-70 mdf=20cm). just my 2 cents...

raist86: Should be around RM15xx-17xx.

WindY2K: The other thing which anybody who has tried the Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4.5 DC will notice, is the insane minimum focusing distance! At 20cm from the sensor plane to the subject, minus the length of the lens, and you have a lens that practically touches the subject! Try it!

Yeah, windy2k, go try the lens and u will be amazed:)....mfd of 20cm is very useful (at least for me). I tried the lens in sg wang boeing

deciding between the 3 lo. 17-50 is tempting, but ending at 50mm, it's a little short. siggy 24-70 pula got a history of gear stripping. Sigma malaysia only got 1 year warranty, anything happen after that 1 year, i can cry.

17-70 fits me the most. Just that, to spend 1400 for it, is it worth it? Since it doesn't have a constant 2.8 like the 17-50.

it happened to me too...but i chose 17-70 to replacement my not-so sharp kit lens:)...i hardly shoot at constant 2.8 too...moreover, its not even enuf for indoor lo-light


Added on January 31, 2009, 8:46 amtry the lens...MFD of 20cm is really very FUN!

some pix from 17-70 as promised
