| Sigma 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 DC Macro HSM (Contemporary) Review |
After trashing a great DA 18-250 with an unfortunate stuck lock pin, I had to decide between a DA18-270 and this Sigma 18-300. The sigma seems to offer a more sophisticated and recent lens formula and a more solid built quality; it’s way cheaper and comes with enthusiastic reviews. The Pentax on the...
| | | Sigma APO 100-300mm F4 EX DG Review |
Bought this version two lens in almost new condition two weeks ago. It had just been listed, and I wasted no time in sealing the deal. Everything good I had read about this lens was 100% true.
I have taken it out on four photo treks already, so have had the opportunity to get a real feel for this...
| | | Sigma 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 DC Macro HSM (Contemporary) Review |
This all in one, jack of all trades lens is the best I've had to date.
In this photo I'm about 2 feet back from subject f11 on a tripod, ISO 200. Focal length 190mm.
This plant is about 1/4 inch wide. This is a 100% jpeg crop, no post processing. I could knock down the highlights with Raw, but I t...
| | | Meyer-Optik-Görlitz (Globell Version) 50mm F2.9 Review |
This is a special effect lens. It is not modern, it is not sharp, but it can nevertheless produce great images.

| | | Soligor 60-300mm F 4-5.6 MC C/D Zoom + Macro Review |
This review is for "made by Kiro" (serial 98xxxxx) My sample found in really very nice condition. This lens was great recommendation long time ago in Germany/Austria by famous author. His name is Barnim A. Schulze who wrote books about camera and other and make lens tests in famous German fotoMAGAZI...
| | | Tokina RMC / SL135 135mm 2.8 Review |
Absolutely worth it all the way up to $80US. My copy has some fungus demons and it still has plenty of resolving power on my 13mp 5D classic. This is a perfect lens for portraits so long as you're not shooting back-lit - or if you do, I'd recommend using a full frame Nikon to balance the histogram ...
| | | Makinon 24mm F2.8 Review |
Its a good lens. Its no worse (or better),in term of image quality,than any other 24mm lens from a third party manufacturer from that era. This includes sharpness, distortion, and bokeh quality. I actually think its better in terms of color saturation than the highly reviewed Tamron adaptall-2 24m...
| | | Promaster 60-300mm F4-5.6 Zoom Macro Review |
I saw this lens on Ebay for a low price and bought it based on the reviews here. I haven't been disappointed. I think the color rendition is nice and there's an overall "feel" to the pictures taken with this lens that I like. It's not the sharpest, especially farther away, but for the price and t...
| | | Vivitar Series 1 (Komine) 28-90mm F2.8-3.5 Review |
I don't have much to add to other reviews -- this lens is as sharp as almost any prime lens I've used. I haven't had it too long and haven't used it much, but took some photos today and made a flickr album. Highly recommended for lovers of old manual lenses.
