Lenses / Help decide between two Tamron lens
« on: March 06, 2012, 11:23:43 PM »
Today is  my birthday and I have some cash to spend. Currently only have 450D with kit lens and 50mm 1.8. I'm holding out for a 7D2 or 70d in the  future and L glass is out of my budget now.  Found two lenses on Craig's list.  Both seem to have good reviews.  The 17-50 they want 350 and the 28-75 300. I mostly shoot landscape but just had a son and will be the second shooter at a few weddings this summer what would you pick?

Selling Tamron 17-50mm F/2.8 Lens for Canon. It is in mint condition and takes sharp images. The glass is clean and scratch free. There are a few dust in the lens, however, this does not affect the image quality.

I will also include the original box , end caps, a receipt and warranty card. I've had this lens for 3 years so there should still be about 1.5 years left on the warranty.

Bought this lens about 8 months ago, but got a full frame so am looking to get the Canon 24-70L. The lens doesn't have any scratches, dents or abrasions. The lens has been used lightly. It comes with the hood, the back and front covers as well. Only looking for serious offers. If you are interested contact me through email or phone and I can send you pics of the lens as well. Will only meet in person to verify both parties are happy. Let me know if your interested, looking to get the L series lens ASAP!

since the 1D IV is EF lenses only, can the APS-H even work with EF-S lenses for everyone who currently has them on their 7D?

Lighting / Re: What 3rd party Flashes offer in camera control
« on: February 17, 2012, 09:52:26 AM »
I have the Yongnuo 565, a Canon 430exii and an Yongnuo ST-E2 controller.  This is a nice setup that gives plenty of control.  The Yongnuo 565 does not have hypersync or commander mode, but other than that, it is really nice and powerful, and has  all the other functions of the canon 580ex ii.

Im not sure if I'll need it but the high speed sync seems important... its really hard trying to pick a flash, that can do what the big buys can for less money

Lighting / wholesale cost of 580EX2?
« on: February 17, 2012, 08:52:35 AM »
Does anyone work for a store, and know what the pricing is to a distributor?   I like to shop at a store called ABT and they allow haggling.  So I want to know how much reasonable room I have to work with before going in and wasting my time.

Lighting / What 3rd party Flashes offer in camera control
« on: February 17, 2012, 08:18:39 AM »
I know I can control the 580EX2 from my 450D menu's but for price reasons was more interested in the metz 58AF2 or maybe another brand, but can't seem to locate information weather any of those can be controlled from within the camera menu's

Any help is apreciated

Lenses / Re: What lens for 7D EF-S or L

With some of the recommendations coming in.  the 17-55 2.8 sounds interesting  but in the end do any EF-S lens stand up image wise to L glass?

They say it's the best EF-S lens. They say - if you don't switch to full frame camera like 5D2, you will be fully satisfied with the quality of this lens with the image quality comparable to L lens. "L" doesn't always means the best image quality. It's also built or weather sealing (sometimes). Professionalists using their lens work with them much frequent than hobbyist, so the glass has "harder" life. It has to be more resistant to treatment.

Okay that puts things into prospective, I don't foresee making the jump to FF due to the high costs of the body's 1500 is probably the max I could ever spend on a camera.  and I enjoy being able to shoot really wide when I want to which probably rules out all L glass for me.

Lenses / What lens for 7D EF-S or L
« on: February 15, 2012, 09:45:21 AM »
I normally enjoy shooting landscape etc and want to get some lens, I currently have an XSI and want to upgrade to 7D or 7D2 or 70D depending on how much I can save up.. But figured I needed glass first.    So for a crop sensor what do most people like to use?   Since the wide L lenses are 28mm or equivalent to a 35mm EF-S I don't know if they will be wide enough.   Any thoughts?

Thanks
