Don't you guys hate it when someone doesn't reply your pm-s on clubsnap??
Next up, the wish lens! Wait, am i supposed to call this a wishlist instead?
The Tokina UWA 11-16 f 2.8
Again, for those who's gonna flame me again, at least here my explanation as a beginner.
Possibly because of the locations that i want to take a landscape picture, i'm always pretty tight up. i,e can't move alot and yet i want to capture alot more of the landscape. So my Tamron 17-50 f 2.8 would probably have some trouble capturing what i want to capture!
If i need to capture more, then i should get the Sigma 8-16 isn't it? I saw the sigma, i believe its a fish eye lens. Best part? - no filter. I'm a filter person because i believe and strongly believe in accidents happening to your lens. In the event you drop the sigma lens in the lens down position, not only will your heart sink, you'll probably observe nasty cracks on the screen.
Besides, the sigma is f/4.5-5.6 while the Tokina has a constant aperture of f 2.8. Talk about low light, and flexibility!
I believe a 2nd hand Tokina 11-16 f 2.8 and a sigma f4-5.6 canon mounts would at least be 6xx SGD for a 2nd hand one!
Well well, so if i'm gonna get a canon/sigma/tamron 70-300 together with a tokina 11-16, that would amount to 1k SGD wohoooooooooo.
Okay, possibily the most important question ever to end the post - anybody wants to sponsor me this 1k?? I will be willing to shoot for you for free to trade off for these equipments! hahaha.
Or. maybe i'll convince my friend to let me use his Carl Zeiss for a trade first!
So CARL ZEISS 35MM F2 trade for Canon 70-300 + Tokina 11-16 ! =D
(hope my friend doesn't mind if i borrow some cash first hahahah)
Geez, i hate it to the max when someone does exactly so.
Someone wanted to trade lens and while going through negotiations, they just disappear like that. They stop replying, even after i 'nudged them' with another message!
Anyway, the below lens is still up for trade!
I was just pondering about life this morning - whether one could really have two hobbies that they really love.
Can one juggle hobby X and hobby Y at the same time while giving the best efforts for both ?
Can i actually do body conditioning (i detest the word body building) and photography at the same time? Perhaps, maybe. Some say it all boils down to your time management, goals etc.
What if i want to excel in both ?
Geez, its a hard decision to make afterall.
Anyway, i'm still on the search for a telephoto as well. All the canon/tamron/sigma 70-300 f4-5.6 are all damn ex in the market. Even a canon would cost me a 4xx SGD! Best part, after buying a telephoto for wildlife shots, i still need to find a way to recoup/earn the money lost.
Some many say that all you need is a KIT LENS - they shoot pretty well.
Before being engulfed in flames with haters equipped with flamethrowers by their side, i would like to say that KIT LENS - cannot do wildlife shots.
A good argument would be - the focal length of a kit lens doesnt reach far enough e.g canon's 2nd kit for aps-c cameras are 18-135
