I just checked out some of your previous photo threads - looks like you're very much into photography yourself! Spotted some lovely photos, I love the one in your signature! Gorgeous dog.
Oh geez, thank you for being so nice!! I just got a DSLR a little over half a year ago and holy crow is it a crazy addiction. I told myself just one body, the kit lens, and that is all I'll ever need.
:rofl1:
Still just learning how to use the camera and taking snapshots. The photographers here on Chaz have been incredible as far as helping me along and providing inspiration/motivation.
What camera and equipment do you use? I have a 11-16mm lens too, is yours the Tokina f/2.8? Fun lens, but like you said the mid-range is pretty useful - I used a Tamron f/2.8 17-50 for the majority of these shots, then whipped out the big one for some of the pictures of the dogs in the ring. It's a Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8, I bought it earlier this year but I've only used it about 4 times so it's about time I go to the zoo or something to put it to good use!
Yep, just picked up a Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8. Was not planning to get it because I don't typically do landscape or architecture or astrophotography, but it was too good of a deal... or so I tell myself.
I was actually hoping to get a Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8, but now that you mention it, I had no idea they also made a 17-50mm! I'll have to keep an eye out for that one, too, and see which focal length range I prefer. I love my primes, but really enjoy the versatility of a zoom lens, especially for dog shows and events.
Haha, why thank you! I'll have to tell him he received a compliment from a Chazzer!
It means more from a Chazzer - it takes a lot to distract us from the dogs
