Oh, i don't know about that, Don. I use MF for landscapes from time to time and birds ocassionally, for macro quote often, and for 100% of shots with my tilt-shifter (which is MF, obviously). I'm...

Thanks for posting that, Walwyn. It's a real eye-opener. Most of us (some of us?) had a fair idea that this sort of scumbaggery was around on the web, but seeing it all written up in one place like...

Another difference is that, most of the time, fast lenses (say f/2.8 instead of f/5.6) are better quality lenses. There is no law of optics making this so, it's economics. Manufacturers rarely spend...

One thing that I have noticed in my trawling of the fora (not this one!) is that there are quite a few Canon owners who are total dipsticks! These turkeys can't be doing the company any good, and 99%...

Sticker shock: Nikkor go ballistic
I'm an all-Canon man these days, with a couple of Canon flashes (580EX II and dual-head macro flash), four Canon cameras (yes, I use all of them), and a pretty fair selection of lenses, from 10-22...

The retro upgrade: 24-105L to 18-55 IS

I, Tannin, voluntarily and of my own free will, being of (probably) sound mind and no more than usually unsound body, just upgraded my Canon EF...

You might do better to wait until the new Nkon 500/4 VR is available. Yes, it's disgracefully overpriced but when you consider the cost of swapping systems you might come out about even. (And if...

Faced with a choice between those two, I'd go with the Sigma. The Nikon will soon be replaced by a current-generation lens with IS, and might be a pretty poor investment once the new model hits the...
