Magnets don't affect Flash media, they affect only magnetic disks i.e. conventional hard drives. ;) good luck with your project

I have never tried sigma but canon's 1.4 is excellent. Someone mentioned AF hunting , must have been bad copy of the lens , mine has never done that. And as 60221654 mentioned its great for video as well.

did you keep the receipt? :| they go on on ebay for £450-£600 :thinking:

any recommendations? any one? :help:

Hello Gents and Ladies of TP Been looking for flash set-up for a while now and still haven't come up with perfect solution so I though I'l ask nice people of TP to help me out regarding my cheap-ish flash set-up. I already have sigma dg500 super flash with ttl I'm looking to by another two...

I agree - in that situation VC would be useful if higher ISO isn't an option and you don't have a tripod with you. Can't comment on the Sigma as I haven't used it, but reviews seem to be good.

I have non VC -why? 1st - Non VC is sharper 2nd - I don't really need IS and at these focal distances I don't see that much benefit of IS anyway 3rd - non VC is cheaper So when I was buying Tamron 17-50(Non VC) it made more sense getting sharper cheaper lens without IS but it's up to you...

nice video some points i didn't like - edit @ 2:03-2:04 has that flicker were you can see spectators changing position and the same @ 2:14, just these two little bits which are not perfect - rest of the video is nice and well put together, good song choice as well :clap:

well I have both 50mm f1.4 and Tamron 17-50 f2.8 (non VC) when I'm out and about during the day I find myself using Tamron - it's a cracking lens but when things get darker or I'm doing portraits nothing can beat 50mm and that lovely DOF. So I would recommend keeping 50mm and getting Tamron...

i want one of those :lol: for my 60D

Hello everyone. I would say I'm pretty noobish/average at photography I have used SLR cameras for around 8 years. at the moment I have canon 60d with few primes and 70-200 L F4 :suspect: Been reading these forums for a while and finally decided to register. :)
