now i'm taking everything in L + RAW, so i guess that's why.

 

You should have a couple in case one freezes up anyways

 

^ Yes! I'll be ordering 2 more today.

 

damn I want a Tokina 11-16 and its backordered everywhere -

 

You might have to wait awhile, it was just in stock in many places.

 

poop... I bought this Tamron 10-24 today and its going back. I just wanted something wide for tonight, heading up the ole' Sears Tower. So I decided I'd get it - I'll try some shots out see how it does. But I guess I'll also be doing frames with the 24. Horrible CA on the 10-24. But I am glad to finally see for myself, what 10mm looks like on the 5d.

 

lol

Rubin, you should have listened to me when I told you it was in stock two weeks ago

 

Rubin's lens fund was dry two weeks ago

 

Rubins fail fund is full to the brim this week

 

 

 

Tokina 11-16 FTW

 

 

 

 

you have one, JS?

 

you are talking about tokina 11-16 f/2.8, right?

Yes, in fact, pretty much all the pics that i post here are taken with it!

 

yeah. wow, you suck! I had a nice cup of STFU ready for you. too bad I don't get to use it.

 

it took me 2 months to get a copy of it.. it's always out of stock everywhere.

the demand of it is so strong that people buy slightly used ones for like $610-$620 shipped on POTN. lol

 

:jealous: I've been wanting to trade my 10-22 for one.

 

this might be the worst photo editing ive ever seen....

 

Yikes.

Also, it reminds me of Spy vs. Spy.

 

I do like that the Tokina is 2.8...

 

the one think I hate about my Sigma 10-20, is that its 4-5.6

 

 

my 24-60 is 2.8, so now the 10-20 usually just comes out of the bag and goes on the tripod

 

i shot 2 bar/club events tonight... (uncommon for me to even shoot one these days)... thankfully I brought both cameras.... I could not get the 7d to do what I wanted it to. So I shot primarily with the 5 all night. And boy, did it do some work. keep an eye on the Just Body thread..

 

.....off to the body thread

 

uh.. damn. these chicks don't look teh 'same' as they did friday night... had some serious beer goggles going on.... wtf...

 

 

Do you guys use hand straps?

 

Ive never tried one

 

I used them when I had Canon bodies, I liked them. But that was before I found Black Rapid straps.

had one on the 5d since day one, love it to all hell. don't have one on the 7d (yet), miss it to all hell.

 

I should have one that you can have, remind me later if you want it.

 

Who says you can't use a 35mm f/2 for macro work?


This little guy was about an inch and half long, but he was super mellow and let me get pretty close to MFD.

 

 

me? nice!

nice Dan -
