Lens I found and missed

danielchtong · 08-08-2009, 02:26 AM

I was in B&H 3 yrs ago in a shopping trip.
Bought a lot and they opened a new lens for me to test a Sigma 70-200m APO non-macro.
Took a couple of quickie shots with my DL . And really there was not much chance of buying more as I had literally emptied my pocket.
And I found this image in my card 3 days later back to TO. Too late indeed. This was taken at 135mm F3.5 iso 800 inside B&H. I am sure my FA135mm is just impressive. But what a lens man

If you feel like counting hair of the subject, go for it

I've always heard great things about this lens. Fortunately for my bank account, I'm very happy with my Pentax A 70-210. But I have lusted after this lens.

Impressive.
Doesn't look like you can go wrong with any of the 70-200s.
