Woohoo!! Sigma 10-20!!

[Linkzi]

This lens is W-I-D-E at 10mm. The long axis at 10mm stretches your subjects...It gives your photos a different look and can have lots of fun with the different looks. Some samples of all 10mm:

Awesome shots. I wonder how these compare to the EF-S 10-22..there's like, a $200 difference.

[Linkzi]

Thanks...lot's of threads here comparing the two. Do a search and you'll see alot. My 10D won't fit the EF-S lenses. :(

[turbodude]

Sweet... I almost got this lens, but went for the Tamron 17-50 instead. I see you have both. ;)

I use the Tamron all the time, a super versatile lens. This will be my landscape/semi-fisheye lens.

[phocalphobe]

[farrukh]

I had same woohoo joy last year when i got it, congrats :)

You should write up a little site blocking tutorial, and it should be a sticky.


Me want too.

Yes...that is the one. I bought mine used from a POTN member. I have a non-US copy, they go for about $450 new. The U.S. copy has a 3 year warranty and the Non-US (gray) has a one year. Found no problems so I'm happy with my copy.

Wish I could have tried your UW at the shoot, but it won't mount on my camera. :sad:

[slappy sam]

Yeah, I love my 10-22 also. 10mm is just awesome.

[350D_Noob]

Congrats on the purchase! Looks like you're using it very well already.

[_aravena]

It really is a great lens. Hopefully I'll get to experiment more than landscapes now with my newly acquired free time.

Speaking of, i got 2 landscape photos in the 10-20 archive Gabriel. I'll get those car shots in time.

Thanks Noob...I can't wait to get a Sunset/Sunrise type of photo.

I believe it is a great lens to have...I'm trying to find more potential in it...congrats on your free time! always great to have that!


Yeah, I love my 10-22 also. 10mm is just awesome.


Yes...all kinds of creative stuff at 10mm. I'm thinking of taking a photo of someone pointing to extend their arm length.

[verty]

really cool hellicopter pics :D

love the second one

[Hangbot]

awesome shots! That did it - I'm heading over to B&H and picking one up:)

I've been considering fish-eyes(but don't know if i want to fix every image), 14mm asphericals(but don't have the $$$), and the arguements between the canon 10-22 and the sig 10-20. Not sure if the Canon is worth the extra money for an extra stop, and your pics look great. I think the sig might be the right choice:) Thanks!

Thanks verty! I just flew that one today.:D

You can always try both out. I just pushed you over the edge for a UW.;) The sig has a hood and a very nice carrying pouch (better than my 70-200L). I bought mine used from a fellow POTN.:D

[calicokat]

Great looking shots and congrats, does this lens fit full frame, I think its the 12-24 that does

[Luckie8]

Congrats!
It was one of my lenses that I wished I never sold.

[cbock]

nice shots of the helicopter. it's such a fun lens.

Thanks calicokat...It is designed for the 1.6x crop only. Yes the 12-24 is a full frame lens.

Congrats!

Situations arouse and you did what you had to do for a reason. I sold a 85 f/1.8 that I wished I kept but it was my only lens at the time and I needed something more versatile.

nice shots of the helicopter. it's such a fun lens.

Thanks cbock...I've been drooling over it for awhile and finally had the funds to get it.

[pepperoni]

I brought this thread back up to ask a question... Is this lens still available? I don't see it listed on B&H or Sigma4less.

:confused:

~edit~
aaak... nevermind. I was looking under wide zoom and it wasn't there. I found it under Aux lens on the Sigma site.
;)

[G35Driver]

You can find it anywhere
