redangel Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 How sharp is that last whippy photo! Great shots. Just a question...how does one decide what lens to use. say for a portrait....is it decidedly on dof required...say you had a lens like kirslins lil groover or a 50mm for example.

Ripley Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) I was going to buy the Sigma 50mm macro which could double as a portrait lens/every day lens. You can buy it from BH Photo in New York for under USD300. When I get financial, that's my next purchase. I know you have to get right up close to bugs with it though, that's my only concern. I have two other sigma lenses, the 17-70 and the 10-20, which I haven't used much, but will in the next few weeks. eta: I sometimes go to this place for reviews of lenses/cameras http://www.fredmiranda.com/reviews/ eta: The Sigma 10-20 is fantastic for landscapes, but you can also get some interesting photos of animals with it, but you have to get up close. This is a wild cockatoo who landed on our balcony. I bribed him over with some seed. When he heard the click of the shutter, he put his crest up. The lens can give you some amusing angles of animals.

Just a question...how does one decide what lens to use. say for a portrait....is it decidedly on dof required...say you had a lens like kirslins lil groover or a 50mm for example. a 50mm would give you a wider field of view so you could fit more in, you could use it indoors for portraits. The 100mm requires you to be further away, but I've noticed it seems much sharper than my 70-200 for running shots. I took some of the whippies running the other day and they were really sharp. I might even take it along to our upcoming fun day and try it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clicking Mad Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) oh I got the sigma version 100mm f/2.8 quite some time ago now. I should find some shots to post here Edited March 28, 2010 by Clicking Mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCresties Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I know this is an old thread but I found it while searching for info on Sigma lenses and just have to say.... LOVE this photo :p with the macro this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 Oh Wow, Thankyou very much! that's one of mine. Yes that macro is a versatile lens isn't it. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 (edited) anyone know what this flower is called. I bought it a couple of years ago and it was supposed to be black. This is the first time it's flowered and I wouldn't call it black but I love it anyway. I think it's amazing and gorgeous. and even a bit sexy, especially when it's rotated like this Edited August 27, 2010 by Kirislin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted August 29, 2010 Author Share Posted August 29, 2010 I had a play around with a tripod and live view today, much sharper. this is just a little weed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iltby Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 The tripod can make a huge difference if you can be bothered to get it out. I've only used it once for a droplet shot They're both really gorgeous, so crisp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
