Sigma 100-300 F4 - Need your opinions!
Please let me know what you think. I shoot a lot of soccer and baseball and have an opportunity (which may just be for today) to purchase a used Sigma 100-300 F4 Nikon mount for $750. Of course, money is tight, but I can probably stretch to make it. I'd also like a second camera body (I have a D300) so that would probably… -
Re: Beginner/Intermediate Canon Starter kit advice
Good advice so far, and you have obviously done your homework starting right with a less expensive body to allow more budget for better glass. So, I will add my voice to the chorus here. Since you're trying to do it right, don't bother with the consumer glass, wait a bit and get the 70-200. That line has a well-deserved… -
Re: Sleeping with the Enemy—Trying a D700
I have also been a long-time Canon shooter and recently got very pissed that my 40D couldn't handle low-light situations, so I bought a D700 based on the glowing reviews I had read. I could have bought the 5D2 for the same money I spent on the body plus 1.4 50mm but wanted to see what the Nikon was all about. All I can say… -
Re: Buying on ebay
Perform Due Dilgence e-Bay can result in some great deals IF you do your due diligence as suggested and check the ratings for the seller; know what the prices for new & used equipment are averaging and correspond with the seller if they're not a mass e-tailer; Set your upper limit and don't exceed it by getting caught up… -
Re: proof colors in PS RAW editor?
Listen I never said they were exact or that I didn't wish they were closer, and if every last part of my computer could be made color-aware and every external blu-ray player and cable box and directv box could load in ICC profiles it would be awesome but they can't, and the fact is if I measure the primaries and… -
Re: Switching to full-frame - A LOT of questions!
For portraits you'd need a 24-70 and there are a few choices out there I personally use the Tamron 24-70 F2.8 VC which is 900 and they have a newer model that's 1,200, there are also other 3rd party choices around this price range. The Nikon model is 1,800-2,400 depending on if you want VR or not. For something close to… -
Re: I want to buy a bridge camera
Rats. I was hoping that someone who owns one of these cameras would reply. IMO, the Fuji Finepix S1 would be a great daylight camera, with a very large zoom range and a long telephoto capability. The primary weakness, compared to your other two choices, is a rather poor high-ISO capability. It has weather seals, if that… -
Re: Abusive Comments and Thumbs Up/Down
I should like to add my experience to this thread. Over the last 18 months I have had 8-10 pictures in the "All times" list" However every times my pictures have been there a day or two the suddenly disappear. At one time I was able to follow the culprit in action. Every 10 to 15 second I could see my picture drop in the… -

FS: 40D Body Only-w/orig. box, 2 batteries, +extras
Hi there, I have been looking at upgrading to the 5DmkII (haven't we all! :thumb) so I am going to just throw this out here if anyone is interested in getting a 40D for themselves, as I hear they are still pretty popular! I picked up my 40D new in April 2008, and have taken about 22,600~ photos with it since new. I have…
