Went out to macro this morning with my 7D... The weight is almost killing my wrist. :sweatsm:

Yep. It's a good model for 5 mins before flying off :bsmilie:.
I'm totally impressed with 7D's performance today. ISO640 in my 7D is like ISO 200 in my 450D. Very nice colors and love the Zone-AF, super fast detection even with manual focus. :thumbsup:
I'm loving the ISO performance all the way to 2000. Just overexpose a bit and the noise is nicely controlled. Overexposure can be tweaked back in PP.
I'm going to put the Zone-AF + AI Servo to test this coming F1.
Looking for people to join me. I might bring in 300mm f/2.8L IS USM. I wonder will I get stop. Haha! :bsmilie:
and i think i'm starting to feel i'm a camera gear collector liao :sweat:
no $$, no bokeh...

Anyone saw the announcement of Sigma's new lenses? :devil:
Heard of it but haven see them. Where ah?
Ok. Saw it... OMG.. Brilliant additions.
Lenses
- 85 f/1.4 (Knew about this one a while back, it has to be great to offset the 2 Canon 85s)
- 70-200 f/2.8 OS
- 17-55 f/2.8 OS
- 8-16 f/4.5-5.6 (This could be a neat lens) If this is a FF lens... WOAHHHH...
- 50-500 OS (Bigma needed an upgrade)
Picture of Sigma 17-50mm F2.8 EX DC OS HSM suggest that it doesn't support FTM, which is a pity despite the lens being equipped with HSM.
For the Sigma 50-500mm, its really a great news, better range than its 150-500mm OS version.![]()
Where to see pics?
After this release, I will be looking at these few Sigma lenses
- 70-200 OS
- 85 1.4
- 24-70 HSM (tested it today as a fellow workshop attendee has it mounted on his 5D2) - the weight and price and performance is worth it.

The 70-200mm OS is quite a contender though.

borrowed a 24-70 and shot this. Straight out of camera less some sharpening and crop. Shot through less than ideal glass.
The xiao hei is... :thumbsup:
The sigma 1 ah?
Nope Canon.
Yeah, but gotta take good care of it. Might get that xiao hei and compare with xiao bai. :devil:
