Question about comparing lenses?

Tarheelnga wrote:

Thanks jeep_daddy. So, will it be a waste of my time to try and do the comparison? I am just having so much of a focus issue with my 600 Tamron and my 7d ll. Just want to make sure it is not my lack of photography experience that is causing the problems.

There is a known problem using the Tamron 150-600 with the Canon 7d2. Contact Tamron for instructions.

NPPA Calls On Photographers Disqualified From WPP To Share Their Shopped Photos

TheeGambler wrote:

Photojournalists should present the truth, "as is." They should not present their own "interpretation of truth," as they want to see it. They have been known to "stage" photos to press their own agendas. Ethics for this group need to be well-defined.

Since the major news organizations no longer present the news 'as is' but present their own 'interpretations', why would we expect their photographers to do things differently?

The optics on Sigma's new lenses is world class good. If you don't use a Canon camera, getting one of their lenses is a no brainer. Unfortunately, Sigma has never been able to reverse engineer Canon's auto focus programing to work in any consistent manner. Read this review -

http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Sigma-50mm-f-1.4-DG-HSM-Art-Lens.aspx

His comments on auto focus are repeated by user postings all over the web. If you decide to buy one, check it carefully and often during your review period. Folks who have got a good one love it, but some of them report going through 3 or 4 copies before getting a keeper. Others just gave up.

Question on sealed body vs. not

blankmange wrote:

from the Pentax website, advertising the K-50:

"Ruggedized features: Fully weather sealed throughout body, coldproof"

Pentax ruggedness and weather sealing is the reason my shooting partner bought one. When the camera stopped working (push the shutter button, nothing happens) Pentax ask her to return it to them. Every two weeks for almost 4 months Pentax would tell her she would get her camera back in 10 days. 4 months is along time to have to rent a camera for every shoot you need to do.

Question on sealed body vs. not

HertzSone wrote:

In my early years I shot with an SRT101 and then the first generation Rebel. My assumption is neither one of these was a sealed body system. I am looking to buy a dslr and note some are resistant to dust and moisture, others not. Will the body not resistant to dust and moisture be similar to the old film cameras of the 1970-1990s? Is this something to be concerned with for a non-pro, enthusiast shooter who can choose when the camera is exposed to elements?

Camera manufacturers do not sell 'weather sealed' products. They are advertised as 'weather resistant'. If you send your camera in for repair, and they find moisture inside, it is highly unlikely the repair will be done under warranty. They will say, 'sorry, you got the camera wet'.

Color and The Sensor

Phil Wissbeck wrote:

I recently read that the digital sensor has a prejudice for the colors blue and green of the spectrum. Is this true?

You need to google the words 'bayer filter'.

Lytro has had this technology for several years. It will be interesting to see if there are any disagreements over who owns the rights to the tech.

EOS Utility issue....

As soon as I switch to live mode shooting the AF-MF switch icon goes to MF and I can't get AF enabled in live view remote shooting.

Anyone have any idea?

Which live view focus mode are you trying to use for AF?

Keep in mind that the two 5d models announced are not the replacement for the 5dm3. The 5dm4 is expected to be announced in the late fall of this year if you believe the internet rumors.
