Renting them and trying them out is the smart way to go before dishing out $600.00 on one particular lens. Your making the write decision. Smart thinking. Your on the right track in your thinking.

Thanks, Just rented a Nikon 35mm and 50mm for $30 for 3 days and now am sure the 35mm is the correct lens for what I want to do. The dealer does have the Tammy in now but should have it in shortly.

Thanks everyone for you comments.

If you want a wider than 35mm I would suggest the Samyang 24mm f/1.4 ED AS UMC lens. It seems to be sharp and not overly expensive either.


Thanks, I have a 10-24 and it seems to cover my wide angle needs nicely.

My suggestion is go for the Tamron 35 mm f/1.8 prime. on your DX body it will yield a similar view to a 50-52 mm on a FX.


Thanks, What I think I will do is rent both a 35mm and a 45 and try them for a couple of days.

Is anyone else having trouble updating PSE13? I have tried the chat room support which was totally useless. They told me I'd have to go to the community forum, which I did. I tried the suggestions there and nothing worked i.e. logged in as an administrator, logged in under safe mode (not sure I did this right), and I don't remember the other thing. I just received Lightroom so plan to use that going forward along with PSE13 as is. Maybe the update is no big deal.


Just checked mine - Win 7, PSE13 and it had me update "Adobe Application Manager" which I did and had no problems with that. Checked after that and it told me everything was up to date.

Does anyone use this lens? My questions are: 1. I plan on using it with my D7200 (DX crop) would it be OK for general indoor (kid) photos or is it too narrow on a crop camera? 2. Will this lens be OK for a walk around "street lens? 3. There are very few online reviews of this lens and before I drop $600 would like to hear from a few users

Thanks
Craig

I have the Sigma 50 ART and I'm very happy with it. I think they are going for around $850



Just looked at a Sigma 50 and really like the build of it. Have read a few negative reviews about problems with focusing. Have you had any problems? Before I drop the big bucks would like to hear pluses and minuses about the lens.

I like it! How long was the shutter open?

I was able to make a PDF contact sheet in Elements 13 by using the Organizer. Load all the photos you want then select print, change the Print Type to contact sheet and then select PDF as the printer. My computer is Win 7 and I do have a full Adobe PDF version loaded.

This photo is great- a wall hanger! There is no central subject but a bunch of subjects. It keeps you eyes (and mind) busy looking at it.

As always, a another interesting image from Graham

Wow! I love the contrast between the window and the door. B&W is the only way to go on this image.

Great work.

I had the exact same problem of the screen refreashing all the time with Win10 on my HP laptop same basic specs as OP. Went back to Win 7 and everything worked as before.

Sorry I took so long to reply to this. I've been away from my computer until now.
There IS a program called (strangely enough) FocusPoints. Actually, it's a plugIn to LR & PSE.

Don't remember where I got it, but I'm sure you can Bing or Google it. I'm sure it was someone here on UHH that lead us to it.

I've used it a couple of times but I wasn't thrilled with it.
I'd send it to either or both of you except that it's 11.5 MB so that would be impractical.
Wait...I looked it up. It seems to be only for LightRoom:

Thanks for trying. Does anyone know if Elements Plus has this feature? I have looked but could have missed it.

Is there any way to show the focus point such as shown in Capture NX-D in Elements 13?

I am sure this was posted here before but, if anyone is going to be in St Louis between now and the end of the month this event is a excellent photography experience.

Went there last night and was able to get about 200 shots in. The gates open at 6:00 pm and they turn the lights on at 8:00pm.

Check the website for info.

I used a D7200 with both 10X24 and 18-140 lens (both were needed). They do not allow tripods or monopods but I used my wife's shoulder and that worked good. Started out at ISO 200 and ended up at ISO2500. Would post some examples but don't have time right now.

Just like anything else people have to take it to the extreme and screw it up for everyone else. Take biking, the thing we all did as kids, but now you have to have the $2000 bike and $500 outfit just to ride a bike.

Drones are cool but people do not use common sense and keep pushing the envelop. Flying around airports or over some else's property is not using simple common sense.
