I added a 5D to my kit (see sig) and decided to do some "spring cleaning" in my equipment. Getting rid of some of my babies is very painful, but I'm going to enjoy not having to debate which 2 or 3 of 9 lenses to take every time I go on a shoot.
Apologies for the watermark, but after having some earlier product shots used by all sorts of webstored, I decided to put in a subtle reminder who took the shots.
Tokina 50-135mm f/2.8 AT-X 535 PRO DX
Nikon SB-24
Asahi Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 50mm f1.4
Tokina 35mm f/2.8 AT-X M35 Pro DX Macro
Tokina AT-X 116 PRO DX 11-16mm f/2.8
Nikon SB-26
Tamron SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di II LD IF
Tokina AT-X 840 AF D 80-400 mm f/4.5-5.6
Full set is here
All shot with the 100mm macro in a DIY lightbox (senseo box + tracing paper) with an SB-28DX from the left side and an SB-80DX from the top.
For those of you interested in what I'm getting rid off and what I'm replacing them with:
11-16 + 17-50 --> 17-40L on 5D (uwa) and on 40D as a normal zoom.
80-400 --> gone, don't shoot so much super tele to justify it being in my closet.
35 macro --> ouch, one of my favorites, might miss this one the most.
Takumar 50 1.4 --> crazy good lens but I can't get used to stop down metering... distracts me and slows me down.
2x SB-24 + SB-26... plenty left and now stocked with 3 SB-80DX-es which I love (except for the locking lever).
The only crop lens I'm keeping is the 50-135, but just to be sure I took some shots of it.
Thanks for looking, C&C is very welcome and appreciated.
