Sentosa Thread XVIII ( Faster than ever & Counting down to our 1st STG anniversary )

[GENO]

if you are concerned about distortion...17-40 beats 10-22 and 12-24 hands down

thats y i said the canon's 17-40mm is best..
:thumbsup:

price is good too:thumbsup:

 

[pinkfuzzycat]

Believe me, the chronological WA for Canon is

17-35L -> 16-35L -> 17-40L.

Go test, the 17-40L is a winner. Check with Garion if you don't believe me


Depends on how often you do it right? So how about a short TFP tomorrow morning first?

Garion is a Canon user? haha, cool.. must look out for him.

Haha, no money no talk.

Hate to burst your bubble, the 17-40L although wide, is good for landscapes, but for buildings, you'd be better off with a TS glass. I believe Canon has 2 TS glasses. Check it out.

Alternatively as Ian would enforce, a MF or LF would be better handling buildings & architectural displays.

TS?!?!
2K leh bro.

haha, dude!! I'm a uni student!
I don't draw a salary!!

That would really depend on what you intend to do with the images, if you intend to use for work etc, professional usage, get a TS.

If you're using it for personal consumption like keepsakes, travel, yes the 17-40L is sufficient.

If you're thinking of doing perspective distortion correction after using non-TS glass, forget it.

My 2cs.
