Veebee Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 thanks. yes crop sensor for the extra reach. full frame for landscape and then also low light nature/wildlife shooting when I need to boost the iso to 6400 or more. I hired that Tamron lens to test it out, wide open it lacks some sharpness and f8 is about the sweet spot of that lens. But key with those shots is that I was really close to the birds and the bg was quite a distance away. I have just sold my canon 400 prime and bought the sigma 150-600 C this morning, needed that extra reach when using the 5D. Off to St Lucia next month so will get to test it out properly. nazmo 1
JXV Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 Karkloof yesterday. The sky was very bright so decided to take a pic with the sky blown out, and tree silhouetted. Colour saturation reduced to almost zero but not a true B&W. B&W not my forté so comments appreciated.Awesome shot. Something to be said for keeping the composition simple and nicely balanced.
Jakkals. Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 So excited, got my new canon g7x today after my s120 were stolen! Fruity 1
Fruity Posted August 29, 2015 Posted August 29, 2015 Was just messing around with my little point and shoot. Going to play around with Elements 10 (which I got from a very generous ex Hubber), to try to enhance the pic a bit.
nazmo Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Loooove my Sigma 50mm Art. So sharp wide open, with the creamiest bokeh ever. SS 320ISO 100Fstop 1.450mm focal on 70D Madone69, Taps and Veebee 3

Just received my 150-600 C this morning with the USB dock. off to St Lucia & Hluhluwe in a few weeks so will get to test it properly then. They ruined Canon lenses for me. I sold my 50mm F1.4 canon and got the way more expensive ART. The difference is so great. that I want to replace all my lenses with Art lenses now I also replaced my 18-50mm F2.8 with a 18-35mm F1.8 (fastest zoom). Im eagerly waiting for an 85mm A now... my poor wallet
