Sigma Corporation adds unique, anti-shake technology to award-winning 17-70mm lens Sigma announced the new Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4 DC MACRO OS HSM. This large aperture standard zoom lens offers an aperture of F2.8 at the 17mm focal length and is ideal for many situations such as portraits, sports, macro and general photography The OS (Optical Stabilizer) function offers the use of shutter speeds approximately 4 stops slower than would otherwise be possible. The maximum aperture of F2.8 makes this lens ideal for hand held photography as well as producing an attractive background blur and high speed auto focus. This lens has a minimum focusing distance of 22cm (8.7..) throughout the entire zoom range and maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7, making it ideal for close-up photography. It is possible to focus as close as approximately 4.7cm from the tip of the lens to the subject making this lens particularly useful for close-up photography. Three aspherical lenses and one ELD (Extraordinary Low Dispersion) glass element provide excellent correction for all types of aberrations. High image quality is assured throughout the entire zoom range. The Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting and provides high contrast images. The incorporation of HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) ensures a quiet and high speed AF. This lens has a rounded 7 blade diaphragm which creates an attractive blur to the out of focus areas of the image

well tis lens amazed me... not just because i came from the kit from the t2i, is everything! the build quality, great shape and weight in your hand, the quality of your bokeh..
ok in order... first the good things
first is a truly walkaround lens. great weight (not too heavy, but not too "kit" neither). the zoom and the focus ring is as smooth as you can get but very accurate.
for the ones who have the Canon Zoom Pack 1000, the lens does fit. i guess it wont fit any longer one.
the quality of the pictures really amazed me, and you know that the ones you get from the kit lens are great ones! the bokeh is really beautiful (7 rounded blades aperture), the zoom range is the right one for walking with it.. no chromatic aberration at all ( at least compared with the kit lens) but when is in 17, at 2.8 you can see some at 100
% crop so..
HSM is REALLY quiet.. I mean, the only way to listen this baby running is in your room at night with the door closed! and is fast.. not as fast as an L series, but is fast.
the price is great too.. i guess that the equivalent from canon is the 15-85 and is almost 300 bucks more :s
the macro function is a plus very welcomed for me :)

now, the bad ones
no full time autofocus... this is annoying... you still have to be careful to not turn the focus ring when you're in autofocus and that's crap.. :s
the OS stoles some battery power.. so just don't expect the same amount of pictures that you had with the kit lens..
72 mm filters are kind of expensive.. but after all, this is an expensive hobby (this lens is not an expensive one, but is still 100$ more than a s90) so.. guess is not a problem..
when you have the OS on and turn off the camera, there a weird noise in the lens.. nothing to worry about but is there so...
this is something weird and unexpected, and i'm going to try to explain it (sorry my english by the way)
I think this lens is "darker" than the kit... how is that?? well, if you take a picture with the kit lens, and put this one on the camera, and you don't move anything (aperture, exposition, etc) the picture will be darker... you have to move up a little bit the exposure compensation.. so I don't know why is this, and i'll be glad if someone could explain it..


overall a 7 stars lens (not 8 because the lack of full time autofocus) but amazon only allow me 5 stars so.. you know what? BUY IT!
P.S.: i know is not important, but the looks of this lens in the camera is also veeery good! :)

Canon Sx200 Power Shot - Putting a Zoom in Every Move

Image : http://www.flickr.com

When looking for a great bring along digital camera most times you just know you have to give up some functionality. Not so with the Canon SX200 Power Shoot. Continue reading and I will not only uncover this surprise function but highlight all the many great features provided on this economically priced must have digital camera.

One of the best parts of this fun camera is that the 12x zoom is built into its portability. Imagine being out and about and seeing that perfect scape shot and wanting to zoom in and being able to on a whim. You no longer need to have 'the bag' full of photo accessories just in case the perfect moment arises. No longer will you get a small speck in the center of your picture attempting to capture your child out on the soccer field. Also fun is the 16:9 aspect ratio along with the standard 4:3 ratio.

The SX200, which has been around a few months, represents the new stylistic direction of Canon's Power Shot models. It seems to have been made of brushed metal with chrome accents offering a chic two-tone appearance. The option of color in the case also classes up this new Power Shot. One drawback might be the pop-up flash, which extends automatically when the camera powers on. This aside I am sure you will love the feel in your hands and the feel that comes over you with the ability to take control as much as you want and for as long as you want.

This mild criticism aside, I feel that Canon deserves our kudos for dressing up its premium compact. The Canon SX200 Power Shot is a nice looking camera with construction and features that suit its price class. It becomes a nice step up for those novices looking to upgrade.

The optical zoom is smooth and sharp and has long zoom range for a relatively small camera. Image quality is excellent with very low distortion. For those with an adventure for things in motion the Canon SX200 Power Shot tracks faces with ease and provides many functions that will allow even the novice ultimate creativity.

The Canon SX200 offers focal lengths ranging from 28mm wide angle to 336mm telephoto and offers true optical image stabilization which is a must on zoom range. The SX200 also was built with some thoughts of its own. The DIGIC 4 image processor handles post-processing for the 12.1 megapixel gem. If you are looking for a digital camera to carry in your pocket this is perfect for let's say a coat pocket, a little too large for a shirt pocket. But considering the lens that is built in it is worth the extra girth that has to be accommodated.

To those of you that are loyal Canon users the functions are similarly located to other fine Canon digital cameras. The Canon SX200 Power Shot has video mode for those that love to see it all again in action. As an experienced user the SX200 offers independent control of both aperture and shutter. So whether you like the 'everything' automatic option or the self-control option this great little camera is for you.

This lens has a minimum focusing distance of 45cm (17.7 inches) at all focal lengths and a maximum magnification of 1: 3.4 reproduction ratio, making it ideal for close-up photography. An inner focusing system eliminates front lens rotation, making it suitable for use with circular polarizing filters and the supplied petal-type hood. Incorporating super multi layer coating reduce the ghost in the backlight photography.

After tons of browsing reviews for superzooms from Nikon, Sigma, and Tamron, I took a gamble on the Sigma for reasons I found all over the reviews: low distortion, HSM (focus), and bokeh. And below is what I found after using it for a while:

Pros:
1. The most surprising factor on a D90 body is that it is only slightly bigger than D90's kit lens 18-105mm VR, and therefore IT DOES NOT BLOCK THE FLASH! I was almost ready to squeeze some money for an external flash, but it was put on hold because the camera flash can work fine.
2. Virtually no lens creep (and there is a lock button in case it happens). Quality construction that is.
3. Nice bokeh, as usual Sigma lenses have creamy bokeh, which is a big plus for such zoom lenses.
4. When in manual focus, the focus ring is very smooth

Cons:
1. The biggest problem for me is no manual overriding the focus. Auto focus would lock the focus ring on the lens, and the ring actually would rotate when it is focusing. Only when switching to manual focus can I turn the focus ring.
2. As indicated in most reviews, the sharpness may not be optimal (I can only compare it to Nikon 18-105mm). BUT it is not that bad, even for a pixel peeper like me, I am fine with its sharpness most of the time when looking at it @100%.
3. OS functions kind of oddly (to me). The Nikon 18-105mm turns VR on only when I half-press the shutter, otherwise it is off. But Sigma 18-250mm seems to have it on for a certain time. When the camera is idle for some time, OS is then turned off, and you can hear it from the lens. Wondering if this is wasting more battery. Also as indicated in the reviews, the OS doesn't seem to be as solid as Nikon's or Tamron's stabalization. But of course, it's no big deal when you have a steady hand.

Overall, it's a 5 star for me. Good features, quality, price, and some minor cons. I was worried the most about its sharpness, but it turned out satisfactory. So I am very happy with it.

Digital Photography Tutorial - Digital Camera Filters

Image : http://www.flickr.com

Filters are plastic or glass layers placed in front of the lens of a camera to block certain light waves to reach the sensor. Although most filters are designed for DSLR lenses, generic filters can also be purchased and used together with compact digital cameras.

There are many filters out there but I am going to talk about three of the most useful types.

The first one is called the UV filter. UV stands for ultraviolet and it is the electromagnetic rays that can damage your skin and your camera sensor. If most of your photography activities are indoors then this filter may not be useful for you. But it is extremely necessary for outdoors. This filter not only protects the sensor from ultraviolet rays but it also physically protects the front of the lens. This is one of the most generic and cheapest filter but highly essential.

The second one is called the CP-L filter. This filter is actually a polarizer. The filter has a polarizer that can be rotated on a thin surface. This filter allows photographers to adjust certain light rays to pass through the lens and onto the sensor. This filter is handy to minimize reflections from a subject. For example, when shooting a lake, a polarizer may be used to reduce the reflection of the lake, enabling the camera to visibly see the fishes swimming in the lake.

The third one is called ND Grad. Filter. This is an acronym for Neutral Density Graduation filter. Unlike the previous two filters, this filter is separated into two separate regions. The filter is separated into half and one region is darker than the other. The dark region gradually becomes light as it approaches the other half. This filter is useful for landscape photography when the sky is usually overexposed to compensate the exposure of the land. This filter is use to darken the sky and balances the exposure stops between the sky and the land to produce an equally exposed subject. With this filter, the brightness range of the composure is also reduced thus solving the subject-brightness range problem in cameras

There are a few classifications for this filter. There are usually two values of an ND Grad. Filter: 0.3 and 0.6. The 0.3 filters are used for 1 stop compensation where as the 0.6 filters are used for 2 stops compensation. (Each stop is the stop difference between the sky and the land) For each value, there's soft and hard graduation from the dark region to the light region

All lens filters are also categorized with their diameter. That is all about filters now. If you have some money to spare, get a filter today and try it out! There are lots of potentials in photography when using a filter. Ask your local store for some recommendations as well.

Digitally Optimised (DG) Filters EX DG filters benefit from Sigma's multi-layer lens coating, developed to counteract the highly reflective characteristic of image sensors. With older style filters, light would reflect off the image sensor, bounce off the lens and filter elements and re-enter the image sensor, creating a ghost image. The multi-layer coating dramatically reduces this effect. In addition to this, an optimum, neutral colour balance is ensured, increasing the white balance accuracy of the digital camera. Wide Multi-Coated Circular PL It reduces the glare and reflections from glass and water and other non-metallic surfaces. It deepens blue skies, and saturates the colors. The Sigma circular PL filter is designed to give best performance with AF Cameras. The Sigma wide multi coated circular polarizing filter is very thin, so it does not cause vignetting with wide-angle lenses. You can monitor the changes at different angles through the viewfinder as you rotate this filter.
