I sold my 600D and am the very proud owner of a new 6D. I still have my Sigma AF 8-16mm f/4.5-5.6 DC HSM which is for cropped sensors. After some investigation as to why not to use lenses made for cropped sensors on full frame, I decided to give it a...

Thanks for reading this.I really like taking photos of things like insects and little lizards. I found a really cool praying mantis yesterday in the garden and took a few shots of it. I used my 70-200 with the 1.4 tc which was pretty good, but obviou...

I've had my DSLR for about a year and I'm hooked. I take it everywhere with me. I'm looking to replace the kit lenses I have with something that's going to keep me happy for a long time. I've been eyeing off an EF 70-300mm f4.5-5.6 L IS USM. Or possi...

I'm kind of new to the world of DSLRs, but it just occurred to me from what I know, that nd filters should really be a thing of the past. I mean nd filters are just there to reduce the amount of light right? This is such a basic thing to do when deal...

@ cicopo. Thank you. That's a hell of a lot of information.@ ebiggs1. Thank you also for your insight. From the information I have researched so far, I was leaning towards the sigma 1.4.I'm not buying for a while, so I have plenty of time to learn mo...

I think I've found the lens for me. It has all the features of the $2600 70-200 f2.8 IS, but is only $1100. It's the sigma 70-200 f2.8 ex dg os hsm. Granted its sharpness towards the corners isn't right up there with the canon, and it doesnt have the...
