THE BODY CENTRE Posted March 12, 2008 Share Pantani - this is range I get with the Tamron 18 - 250 Spot the red tanker I am still very new to all of this, and my personal opinion is that one shouldnt get equipment far beyond one's capability or knowledge, but as you grow and learn -- you can get the other goodies. Much like cycling. Why would you urge some one who wants to do his first Argus, to buy a SRM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted March 12, 2008 Share Oh and please remember. When using a ultra zooms, you need to be extreme steady. The slightest move will be vissible. Tipods and remote triggers are recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pantani Posted March 12, 2008 Share Would you urge some one who wants to do his first Argus to buy a SRM? Yes!!! If I was the SRM salesperson at Argus Expo operating on 50% commission! Heel, I'd even get them to buy a Cervelo! Hahaha... I get your drift... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idrive Posted March 18, 2008 Share Most people can't tell a good pic from a bad one so unless you are being commissioned to do a shoot or have extremely high standards, I reckon the lens is a minor issue.I shot the Epic with a crappy Tamron 55-200 as it was the only one that fitted in my handlebar bag ......... yes, the images were published (locally and internationally) even though I wasn't happy with the result. I have got the 17-70 Sigma and 70-200 Canon but I'm seriously thinking of getting the Sigma 18-200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
