D7100/Tamron 150-600mm.

Just some fun shots. While I was photographing a young surfer (I posted the pics yesterday), I noticed a girl who was also photographing the young surfer. I accidentally took a few shots of her while I was just panning around the rocks in between surfs. Her camera is definitely not a Nikon & I don't think it's a Sony. Ummm, I wonder what it could be? Downloading is recommended.


You ... 'accidentally took a few shots of her...'? Is that what you told your wife?

Nice legs too - on the tripod !!!

Hey...can you see if Ciro and Sals is still open?? Thanks.


Sorry, didn't see your post in time and we walked down the other end of town. Everywhere was still open - pretty well hopping actually. Ciro and Sal's sounds interesting - I'll try it the next time I'm down there.

Hunts often do special deals that doent appear on their web site. Call one of their stores and ask. However, if the offer was on a paper flier they staff may not be aware of all the details.
Hunts are a great outfit. You can deal with them with confidence.

To me the 18-105 is a G (expensive) lens that is only aps-c (primarily). If I ever want to full frame the lens would not be very useful.


If you think the 18-105 G is expensive - forget about going FF !! Been there, done that. FF is not worth it, if cost is even a consideration.

I've bought numerous used lenses - mostly on eBay. I will only buy on eBay if I can get it for several hundred bucks less than used on KEH, but mostly because I can't always find what I am looking for on KEH or the other recognized used dealers. I have only had one problem - a cheap 500mm telephoto. It was worse than my low expectations, but I had no problem returning it. All of the others have been in excellent condition. If you resell them on eBay you will get most of your money back.

Just read this from Sharpshooter on another post this morning and thought it might be helpful.

.'...there's a new guy on the Hog named Snake Oil Salesman, you should PM him, he's done 350 weddings, the pics he has posted are incredible, should be able to give you some killer ideas about shooting angles and he's an expert on shooting African Americans in case there are any there...'

I considered the K-1 for a brief while, but couldn't find anybody who stocked them. Also, the Pentax user group sites were overwhelmingly pessimistic about Pentax's future. Seemed like it was great value for money on paper.

Besides the 28-70 mm is an fe lens. I have an a6000 apc-s


The FE lenses will work fine on your APS-C A6000. However the FE lenses are bigger, heavier and more expensive than the E lenses. They do give you some 'future proofing' if you think you might eventually upgrade to a Full Frame A7xx or A9, but you would be sacrificing some of the benefits that probably attracted you to the A6000 in the first place - price, size, weight. Also, the plastic body of the A6000 is a little flimsy if you mount it on a tripod with a heavy lens. The 28-70 is only 10.5 oz so that shouldn't be a problem, but 28mm (42mm FF equiv) is a bit long for typical wide angle landscapes.

I had the 50mm f/1.8 OSS. It is a fine lens and great value for money. However, I found it too long for indoor people shots which is what I really wanted it for. I sold it. If you want to try out the 50mm length you might consider buying a legacy 'nifty fifty' and a cheap manual $10 adapter. The Olympus OM 50 f1.8 is very light and compact and sits very well on the A6000. There are plenty of them on ebay for $20 -$30

I think you would find the Sony 35mm f/1.8 much more useful as a 'normal' lens. Others may recommend the Sigma 35mm 1.8 which is half the price of the Sony, but you will loose 'eye' focus which is an amazing feature for portraits.

For landscape, I don't think you could do better than the Sony Zeiss 24mm f/1.8. Pricey, but worth saving up for. Alternatively, get the 18-105 mm f4.0 OSS G and it will do everything for you.
