The *Official Photography Thread*

Thanks, I was a tough decision between that one and my submission.

 

My goodness Ben, those are amazing. That lens is my next buy.

 

All are very nice...this one is my favorite. Just realized I wasn't following you on Flickr.

 

Cedar Waxwings. Nice shots! I love seeing them around. Check out the birding and bird photography thread if you're into that, too.

 

Thanks. I just enjoy anything in nature to shoot. Birds are fun since they are challenging and provide good opportunities in the city.

 

Also got some pics of this red tail hawk a while back with my old camera.

Everyone feel free to hack away at any of my photos. Critique always welcome.

 

Well..im sure those people that complain are hold stuff to the highest of standards and have all shot with the 400L prime and such. So they have something to compare it too.


that said. Your new stuff is pretty damn awesome with that glass!

 

Some really great shots with that 100-400.

 

A couple of new surfing shots

The guy on the yellow knee board is supposedly the 1st or 2nd in the world. He was incredible to watch. He is good friends with my buddy who I went to photograph and hung out with us all day.

Awesome texture in the waves! They look very 3-D, which is really cool

 

i mean for like a profestional who has gotten to actually use all the L glass. You've had one lens. So for all you know it is softer then other macro L glass. You haven't got to try it.

compared to the tamaron you shoot with normally. Hell yes is a lot better.

But for all you know the 100-400 might be softer then what a professional would want.

Not saying you don't have high standards. But your not a professional in the industry and don't have the experience most those people do that write those reviews.

Far as im concerned. Its L glass. Gonna be freaking bad ass no matter what! haha

 

Thinking about picking up the New Sigma Art 35MM F1.4.. im torn between that and teh Sigma 24-70.. Wish I could get the nikon ver of that $$$ is tight.

 

what up y'all...

had a busy weekend, but managed to put that 40mm 2.8 pancake lens to work... for a $200 lens, it has paid itself off 100x over...

used the Canon ringflash for this set inside a shower...

Yeah I would say its paid for it self.

 

hahaha... shush... i really am itching to get back out on location...

 

right?!

i am glad i gave this lens a try before dropping money on another 24-70 2.8L

although i still may get one anyway...

 

Sub'd, I'll add some pics soon...

 

thats where im at, I kinda want the 24-70.. but I think I would rather get the nikon ver... so I may just get the Sigma 35MM for now.. that thing is sweet.

 

exactly... with today's competition companies have greatly stepped up their games...
