Need help with wide angle lens for indoor photography

saparoo wrote:

Thanks Jerry. I've looked at that one also, along with the Tamron 10-24. Just can't decide which would be best at lowlight.

I use the Tamron 10-24 to photograph interiors of properties I manage, you may need to use flash occasionally.
It is a good lens for the money.

Need Help Finding A Wide Angle for a Canon T3i!!!

KMarcell wrote:

I have been looking for a wide angle lens for my T3i. I have an attachment one but it's horrible, but I can't seem to find a wide angle lens that's not under $1,000. Also would buying a fish eye lens suffice for a wide angle as well?

I have a Tamron 10-24 on my T1i and am really happy with it.
I use it for photographing interiors and landscapes.

Photograph Courses

Advice needed please.
I am at a serious mental photography block and am considering taking an online course by Mike Browne to get my photography juices flowing again.
The course is the "7 Building Blocks of Photography" at $130.00.
I like Mikes delivery and have watched most of his you-tube videos.
Have any fellow hoggers taken this course?
Thanks in advance for your advice.

Canon 70-200 f2.8 L AF USM vs.Sigma 70-200 f2.8 EX DG

I have been looking at the same 2 lenses for a while and finally went with the Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM. I could not afford the heafty price tag for the Canaon F2.8.
I did a lot of research on line and found some very good tests on YouTube by Matt Granger, here is the link.

SWMBO gave me the go ahead to buy it as a Christmas present.
I went to a local camera shop to try the lens and bought it there and then.
I am still getting used to it, but feel it is a great lens.
I have tried it on my Tamron x2 convertor, it looses auto focus but I can live with that for now!
