Did you use CPL???
No i didn't. Yet to figure that out. Will ask for it next time i step into a camera shop.
Quite inspired by this photographer Julia Fullerton-Batten. Amazing pictures she takes... Wow!

Ok... notice you in the top left side of the watch.... so you also should note and see if you can see yourself in the picture...
I presume you are not using flash right???? :think:
No flash. Will try again... Thanks!

Why not just get the 17-55mm and use a prime like 50 f1.4 or 85 f1.8? Both are good primes!

Cool!
I did this today but think I didn't do the watch justice. Abit of glare and probably not setting the right aperture? If u guys arranging a watch shoot, pls invite. I'll be glad to contribute!
hey bro!
if you wanna shoot watches, count me in! quite interested in the art of it too.
Cheers!
i always shoot indoors so i definitely need the f2.8... thought once like you, get a 24-105L can already... ended up regretting and want to change to a 24-70L now... i need that f/2.8... but it would be better if 24-70L has IS on it...
I've just upgraded from 17-85 to the 17-55 f2.8.
It is fantastic. Definitely more contrasty than the kit lens.
The f2.8 has proved to be more useful than the kit lens of the variable aperture. You wouldn't lose out on the 85mm as you can either crop later or use a tele lens.
As for my case I just use my legs haha.

Choosing between the 17-55 and 15-85 was easy for me. That little bit more range doesn't help much. Many times I bring both my 17-55 and 70-200 along for a week-long trip and I hardly take out the 70-200 (except maybe to shoot a bird or something). The main reason I bring that extra weight along is: "since I paid so much for it, better bring it along to get my money's worth".
One more thing about the 17-55. Fixed aperture means you can shoot manual at f/2.8, f/4 etc, and it won't change when you zoom. For the 15-85, if you shoot manual, you have to be at f/5.6 to guarantee your aperture doesn't change during zooming.
