Buy from B&H Photo Video
Nikon has announced three new lenses- The perfect kit replacement for D5500/D7200 users? And some serious telephoto.
Quick thoughts - This shows a commitment from Nikon to the DX mount/APS-C sized sensors and will likely be an excellent travel lens - offering a very useful range with decent aperture. I am curious how it will compare to the much cheaper but very good Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM $399 from B&H (my review).Highlights:
Price: $1,066.95Availability: Shipping July 16thPreorder: B&H Photo Video
Quick Thoughts: I expect these to be very sharp and they offer noticeable weight savings versus the older versions.
Price: $10,296.95Availability: Shipping July 16thPreorder: B&H Photo Video
Quick Thoughts: Just like the 500mm, just costs $2,000 more to get 600mm.

As Toby and Christina are on a much needed vacation with family this week the show will return July 8th. Since I’d be about as bad as Ben Stein from Ferris Bueller for a video, and I’m not particularly set up for it, this Mish Mash will be in article form this week. If you want to chat today while going through the article we’ve got a temporary DPR chat room setup here http://us19.chatzy.com/81158584665855.
Contests
You may remember we picked a winner for a contest just a few episodes back to get a Canon 50mm F/1.8 STM. The lucky winner Kyle sent a photo back of his new lens on a 70D.For our latest contest last week we picked the winner of the MIOPS smartphone camera trigger and the winner was Kojac Cap.

You can now shoot photos on White House tours
Starting today if you're on a White House tour you are completely free to take as many photos as you like. There is a few catches though: video recording is banned, no live streaming though an app like periscope, a iPad does not count as a camera, and no selfie sticks. No tripods allowed on the tour which makes sense considering, imagine a herd of photographers just putting up those wherever. Camera bags are not permitted which is a bit of a bummer so packing light would be key. Lenses have to be under 3 inches in length, mostly to prevent telephoto lenses, although I'm sure that's going to mess up some people as the Canon kit 18-135mm exceeds the rule just barely. All in all you can go on a self guided tour so if you're in or visiting the DC area it would be a good place to get a few photos. Just remember for the tour you have to sign up at least 21 days in advance.https://instagram.com/p/4l6aKJvZHj/
Lake fire grew after private drone flights disrupted air drops
We’ve got another story of a drone operator being in the wrong place at the wrong time. It’s a bit unfortunate for everyone involved but firefighting operations in California were called off temporarily as there was a drone in the flight path of planes putting out the fire. It’s restricted airspace around a fire and illegal period to be above the 400ft flight ceiling. The drone in this case was 1,200 feet above ground in the way of the planes, not to mention you don’t know where they’re going. As the planes could not land with that much of a load and could not put it on the fire having to jettison their cargo which costed between $10,000 to $15,000. As for the fire following missions were called off at the time which had a good chance of containing the fire.
LensRentals Starts Testing Lens Variance
LensRentals is going to start testing lens variance between lenses which is a boon for photographers. If you remember stories about older Sigma lenses there was a good chance of getting a bad copy and having to get a replacement at the store. While manufacturers won’t admit it there are small differences between each lens and that means for overall quality some lenses from the same model are going to be better than others. Using a MTF test station they can come up with an average specification for a particular lens using the hundreds of lenses at their disposal and find the variance at which the lenses differ from that average. LensRentals plan is to have at least 75 models from different manufacturers scored by August with new models added frequently as all new lenses coming in to them will undergo this test. As LensRentals returns 2% of all new lenses back to the manufacturer this helps them with inventory. Since all of this will be public information it's going to be a useful tool for your next lens purchase.
Disney to Ban Selfie Sticks at All of Its Theme Parks Worldwide
As someone that’s been accidentally whacked (hard) with a selfie stick I’m completely fine that Disney is banning them from all theme parks worldwide. They did try to work with the public and say no using them on roller coasters but as it was ignored this week it’s now a full ban. Someone thought it’d be a good idea to use one on a roller coaster on the way down from the initial climb, the staff saw this and shut down the coaster. Passengers had to be evacuated and the coaster itself ended up being shutdown for two hours for a safety check.Friends don’t let friends selfie stick.
The Top 5 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Be a Wedding Photographer
While I can attest to never wanting to shoot weddings myself again I do still shoot a few large events. For weddings you have to be able to shoot long hours, under pressure, stress, and a timetable with a happy face full of energy in 90F degree weather or rain. Not to mention you are responsible to the bride and groom for a decent set of photos of everyone involved.Before you go stomping off to shoot a wedding solo find a local photographer to second shoot for as an apprentice. You can gain experience and get a taste for the type of work involved before throwing yourself under a bus with the pressure on you. Don’t be in a rush and take the proper time to learn and try it out, it’s definitely something that’s not for everyone.
Sony Banking on Its Image Sensors; Will Raise $4 Billion to Invest in Development and Production
You might not realize it but overall Sony rules the camera sensor market. Nikon DSLR’s have Sony sensors but their reach even extends to iPhones and other cell phones as well. They’ve had so much demand that they’ve had to turn down offers for sales since they could not meet the supply. Samsung in particular had a bit of an issue with this as their galaxy S6 phone ended up with cameras from six other companies to make the difference. Now thanks to selling off a few shares of stock they’ve got $4 Billion in capital to invest in new research for sensors and ramp up production potentially taking over more of the market.
Instagram Update Adds All-New Search and Explore Features
In an attempt to get people out of their niches they’ve set for themselves Instagram has put out an update for a new explore page of trending topics and location based searching. As with trends on Twitter this gets people off their main feed page and makes for a new way to follow things that are active in the Instagram community. Likewise with the new search feature this allows finding new people in an area, such as a concert you were just at, to follow on Instagram. Going on a vacation? One bonus for us in particular is the location based service will double as a handy way to scout out a new area for photos. Both features are available in Instagram's new update version 7.0.
Court Dismisses Photog’s Copyright Lawsuit Against Nike Over Jumpman Photo
You may remember from a previous Mish Mash we covered that Nike was being sued for stealing an idea for a photo and using that as their Jumpman logo. Since they had copied the photo at the time they had paid $15,000 to use it for two years but not as a logo. According to the judge the two photos are different enough that it doesn’t count for a copyright claim and as you can expect the photographer will be appealing the decision.
This Preset Pack Brings Real Dehaze to Lightroom 6.1
Ticked off that you didn’t get Dehaze in Lightroom 6 (not cc) after that last update? So are a lot of folks. Turns out though that the coding involved for it is present in both systems like on-disc DLC for a video game. That means if you take a preset with it on in CC and add it to lightroom 6.1 that it will still run normally as if you had turned the slider yourself. Fortunately Prolost has already done the work and created a preset pack, for free, that has filters set for increments of the dehaze setting both positive and negative.Dehaze for Lightroom 6.1 can be found at http://prolost.com/store/dehaze
Jason Sheldon: My Response to Taylor Swift’s Agent
If you didn’t watch the Mish Mash from last week Taylor Swift had called out Apple for not paying artists during their three month trial period. Jason Sheldon, a previous photographer from her 1989 tour, called her out for doing the same practice of not paying event photographers that were shooting her concerts if they were not published and keeping the rights to photos. With a contract that implies the threat of destroying memory cards and cell phones for not complying it wasn’t quite a fair deal. A spokesman then replied trying to backtrack saying the photographers had the rights to their photos, with approval, but made no mention of pay.And so the saga continues, Jason Sheldon’s reply to the spokesman has a bit more information. Mainly that while photographers do retain the copyright it's under the control of management which is neigh impossible to reach without any direct contact information. Even at that point most requests for a release are denied giving the photographer zero pay for a event and photos which cannot even be used in a personal portfolio. As he said in the reply, Everyone’s a winner except the photographer. No word as of yet from Swift herself as she’s keeping mum about the whole ordeal but Live Nation just caved to a similar deal and the Irish times banned using her photos.
Photographing the Default Wallpaper for Windows 10
Windows XP still holds the claim for the most viewed photo and Windows 10 is keeping with the tradition of using a photo for its desktop background. I’m sure in the coming months we’ll be seeing this photo plastered in advertising everywhere for the release.
A Photographer Lost A Client For Supporting Marriage Equality. His Response Shows Why #LoveWins
In viral news for the week you may have noticed Facebook profiles gaining a rainbow overlay in support of marriage equality. Unfortunately this resulted in a Brentwood Photography losing one of their upcoming shoots but they came back with an epic response you can read below. Make sure when doing professional work to always have a contract in case problems like this arise. All in all for one client lost with their viral fame it’s a small price to pay for more advertising than they could ever pay to get realistically.

My Laowa 15mm f/4 from Venus Optics arrived today. This is the world's first wide angle macro lens. Offering 15mm and 1:1 macro capabilities. Manual aperture and manual focus with a shift mechanism is added at the rear end of the lens with a maximum adjustment of +/- 6mm, which is extremely useful for landscape/architecture photography for distortion correction.
My first thoughts - This lens is interesting - Wide angle lenses typically don't make good macros as you need to get close to achieve 1:1 and that's true with this lens too. Some of the photos below I was actually touching the subjects.Live view exposure simulation doesn't work, leaves you to use the viewfinder and with manual focus only that can be tricky. I took a handful of images with the Canon T6s and the Canon 5D Mark III. I haven't played with the shift mechanism yet - Will be posting more photos soon.Available to order direct from Venus Optics or B&H Photo Video
Just because it's a bit chaotic doesn’t mean fire cannot be composed correctly. Take the time to setup your shot and get the rule of thirds going or break the rules and go for another angle. Remember fire can be very versatile for shooting as a main element to a photo, a supporting character for the subject, a fiery background, or just a light source for another subject.Normally when you look at a subject the default for your camera is evaluative metering. In this case the whole area is used to determine what the exposure should be, which for fire is bad to a degree. Setting up for a center weighted average or spot metering allows for a more accurate method of finding the correct exposure settings, especially in modes such as P, and Av.Shooting fire on its own can be easy as it's a lightsource but shooting multiple elements in low light with fire can be hard as it's not emitting a lot of light. With fire your best option is to underexpose your shot and bring it back in post for the most detail. For those using the automated modes your best bet would be to drop exposure compensation around to -2 or lower, for manual it's a bit trickier. Like always for a low light shot using a tripod would be recommended and a remote also helps remove camera shake.Depending on the amount light the fire is putting out its going to be a low ISO of 100-400 with an aperture of F/8 or so to get plenty of detail, the big issue is speed. As its a lightsource if you are only shooting fire you can go with a faster aperture at the cost of ISO and lock the fire in place. If you're shooting people with fire it depends on the amount of light. If it's daytime you can stick with the above rule but if its night you're going to have to raise the ISO and sacrifice speed. Remember to check your image preview for the “blinkies” aka clipping warnings (for canon hit info while reviewing an image) as your underexposing you don’t want to accidentally lose part of the photo that you need to bring back later.The goal would be to have a fast shutter speed to freeze the fire, but it's not a perfect world, and if you're trying to get enough light for a portrait that's just not going to happen. In low light there isn’t one correct answer to fix your problem but rather three major options. Since the fire wouldn’t be the main subject in a portrait you exposure to get the person with the glow of the fire rather than the fire itself as it would be overexposed. Alternatively get the best of both by using Photoshop to combine multiple exposures (camera bracketing certainly helps). If worst comes to worst and your problem is low light you can always add more and fight the fire with a flash.If you try to shoot with a flash you need to add to the light, not beat it, so its hard to pull off correctly. You need to set a low flash exposure compensation of -2 to -3 which dims it down enough that you're not losing the fire. In the case of a portrait or another subject separate from the fire snooting your flash helps keep it away from the flames as it makes it go from a shotgun effect to a focused beam. While they do sell snoots for speedlights online in a pinch there are plenty of DIY approaches that work. As your flash is set for a daytime white balance you will have an issue with color, a orange gel would be best otherwise you will have to fix it in post.Expoimaging Rogue Gels Universal Lighting Filter Kit is Available From B&H and Amazon
Try to Think Outside the Box
Lots of things use fire or create fire so try to think of things beyond your standard campfire such as:
Elements
While fire is versatile it's also complicated, remember that you’ve got multiple elements of a fire to use and that it's a also an element by itself. Try shooting embers coming off the fire, smoke being lit up by the fire, show heat through the air refracting light, or even shoot through the fire to get the wavy texture. As an element itself try pairing it up with an opposite such as fire and water or another similar element such as fire and steel.For fire and ice shots real ice works but Acrylic ice still looks the same to the camera. With fake ice it can take a bit more abuse and won’t melt screwing up an entire image. As acrylic ice gets quite expensive for professional grade, http://www.trengovestudios.com/acrylicice.htm, you can try to buy something cheap I.E. http://www.amzn.com/B00VZSA5N8/?tag=ptrv_roy-20. Good acrylic ice is hand made while the cheaper variety is mold made, they will have a few bubbles and seams that you will have to edit in post.For something different try adding fire to a water and ice photo for a new look on a overused trick. http://www.diyphotography.net/how-to-photograph-the-perfect-fire-and-ice-cocktail/Lightpainting
As they put out a lot of light you can draw with fire and sparklers. With Toby’s article below you can try this yourself. You can try drawing words with a sparkler, making lines in the sky of fire, to even complicated effects such as wings of fire from Von Wong.http://photorec.tv/2013/06/how-to-sparkler-photos-long-exposure-light-painting/Abstract FireWant to try a fire and black background shot? If you want a lot of fire in a small spot for abstract fire photos use a ping pong ball. An actual ping pong ball, not the cheap plastic ones, are made out of nitrocellulose which combined with the large air ratio burn strong for a photo. You won’t have time for a lot of photos with one but being relatively cheap you can go through a few to get the photo you want. With a ISO 100, mid range to high aperture, and high shutter speed as long as it's somewhat dark out your background will become solid black.Color
Fire is not just one color so you have the opportunity to think out of the box. While the standard flame is nice you can get blue through a torch or alcohol for example. Using chemicals or photoshop you can extend that to many more colors. Not to mention the multiple colors and patterns of a firework you have to work with creatively.You can use household chemicals to make a rainbow of fire or go for just a ethereal green flame. As a bit of a warning some of these can be a bit toxic, others a bit smelly, do it outdoors so you have proper ventilation. Soaking wood in the chemical or adding a bit beforehand to the fuel provides the longest amount of flame but it does take a bit longer to get everything ready. For photos where you just need a small fire using methanol in a small dish provides the best color, commonly found in Heet antifreeze for cars.How to Make Colored FireColored Fire - Where to Find Metal Salts for ColorantsIf you just want something quick and easy they sell rainbow color packets to throw in a campfire (small fire not bomb-fire). They burn up fast but make for a short show you can shoot with a bit of color. They are quite cheap on amazon for a 12 pack so it’s worth a shot if you're interested. http://www.amzn.com/B008LM32QS/?tag=ptrv_roy-20.Another method you can use for constant color is tiki fuel. You can it find at your local Walmart in green, red, and blue.http://www.tikibrand.com/Torch-Fuel-Lamp-OilLike always you have the option of cheating to get your desired result as well. In lightroom reduce the saturation of the photos then use split toning to change the flame to the color you want. Since there is only the fire and black in this case it's a bit easier. Choose a color in Hue for highlights and adjust the saturation to get the desired color.If you have more items and a background it gets a bit trickier. Since you cannot effect the image on a global scale you have to use local adjustments to a similar effect. Set desaturation and a color effect then paint over only the fire. It’s a bit heavy handed of an approach as it requires you to be quite exact in painting and effects everything painted. Painting gets a bit challenging to near impossible if there is background color showing through the flame. Photoshop would do better but if you don’t have photoshop this way will work in a pinch.In Photoshop the process is somewhat the same, just use a hue/saturation layer to accomplish the same effect. Create a hue adjustment layer in place of split toning (layers > new adjustment layer > hue/saturation). Where it's set for the master channel select yellow and drag the hue to the color you want then repeat for red. If you need to only affect part of the image select the layer mask for the adjustment layer (white box on layer panel next to the hue layer name). First turn the effect off by inverting the layer mask with the invert tool image > adjustments > invert. At this point with a white brush you can paint the effect back on where it's needed.Science
Get your inner science geek on with a bit of fire!
Fireworks
With July 4th coming up it’s time again for some fireworks photos. Definitely one of the more colorful things you can shoot it makes for a nice shot and an easy one at that using the the DPR articles below.
Backgrounds
Wall of Sparks via Steel WoolUnlike spinning steel wool you can get sparks oriented with your subject which makes for a nice background for a portrait. This one requires a bit of elevation to get the effect which gets a bit tricky as you're going to end up with someone on a ladder or up in a tree with an extension cord. It makes for a nice effect as unlike the spinning sparks this creates a shower background. You can even add to the show by integrating the background, for example having a couple hold an umbrella that's getting hit by a few sparks that are falling.Take chimney starter (or a pipe with a catch on the end) and add a layer of steel wool, use a 9v battery or lighter to get it started. Now use a hair dryer or even better a heat gun to blow air through the pipe and unlike spinning it this way you can get a wall of sparks oriented straight with your subject. By doing this behind your subject you can use gravity to feed the sparks down while walking left or right to make a complete wall.Wall of FireFor a bit more of a dramatic background that adds contrast to a photo you can try making a firewall. Essentially its the same process as lightpainting but done on a much larger scale. Like the wall of sparks above it does require a bit of help but makes for a great shot overall.http://www.diyphotography.net/how-to-create-a-wall-of-fire/Cooking
Fire and cooking just go together, and it’s an excuse to pull the grill out this weekend. For you foodies it's a nice way to stand out for fire photos and makes for a nice photo overall. As a bonus you get some nice food so its a win-win.
Leave It to the ProsLastly be safe, no unnecessary risks for a photo, if you think it might be dangerous it's best to avoid it. One of the local photographers in town here has a scar on his hand from trying to hold two steel balls while they were on fire. That said if you know someone trained to do it, or have an event in town, take a few shots just be safe doing it.
Don’t forget to enter this weeks fire Instagram challenge #PRTV_Fire
Safety first, you're playing with fire so take a few precautions.
Materials Needed
In terms of sparklers I use TNT Fireworks #8 Gold Sparklers, $2 for six boxes at Kmart so they are not the most expensive ones. Honestly they are junk, but in our case that actually works out for once. Mainly they are short, so short I’d never give a kid one as they go out in about 30 seconds max. For us though being a macro shot anything outside of the frame is wasted so thats a plus. Being so cheap the material also has a tendency to flake off as it's sparking which is nice as we can catch a lot of secondary sparks as those pieces burn up. I wouldn’t suggest the color changing variety as your white balance is going to be a bit random.
Once you’ve got a sparkler in the ground setup the tripod to your lens’s minimum focus distance, or in other words as close as possible for your lens. Getting it as close to the subject and still in focus is the goal but watch out that it's not dangerously close in the case of a true macro lens. In the case of a partial macro shot just keep in mind that you will have to do a bit of cropping later (See Photorec.tv - Super Moon? Super Crop!).
You need to nail the focus perfectly. Use a flashlight or whatever light source you have available to light up the sparkler. You need to be exact as being a macro shot your depth of field is going to be about the same as the width of the sparkler. Since the focus is so shallow we want to catch sparks traveling parallel with our focus plane, the window of focus in front of the camera, so that everything lines up in focus as much as possible.
Decide your composition. I don’t think you're going to want a pole(the sparkler) in the center of your photo so adjust as needed to get it to the far left or right so its not in the way. You want to get the middle of the sparkler in frame as the top is a bit of a waste before it gets going. I prefer out of frame personally as it maximizes the amount of frame you have to work with to get the shot even though you lose one side of the sparkler.
For manual settings it’s a pretty simple shot to setup. Being it’s a light source we can use ISO 100 which conveniently blacks out the background if it's not completely dark yet. F/13 aperture to get the depth of field wide as possible. Speed is the tricky part, too slow and you’ve got a massive overexposed explosion, too fast and its dim with tiny lines. For a more chaotic busier photo go 0.3” Sec, to catch fewer straighter lines go 1/25” Sec, and 1/10" Sec for a happy medium.
If you have image stabilization turn it off. It’s not doing anything while attached to a tripod and actually induces a slight blur. The system can’t detect any movement and on occasion will inadvertently cause a shake. With the macro shots in this case the tiniest shake is going to blur the photo and you just wasted a sparkler. This isn't a constant effect and will only happen to a few rare photos but its better for this to be a habit now then learn the lesson while your on a expensive vacation.
For shooting your going to want a burst of photos without touching the camera. A remote is going to be very handy in this case as it can be held down to continuously take photos. Alternatively a self timer set to take multiple shots is your best option sans remote. At this point its the same process as shooting lightning, we want to capture a bunch of shots so we can sort through them later.
With everything set up now light the sparkler, count to three so its in frame, and start taking photos of the sparks.Post processing is a bit tricky in this case. Unlike shooting thunderstorms where a shot with lightning is evident you have to sort through the photos to find the sparks in focus. As I said previously if you can’t get to a 1:1 macro shot you will have to do a bit of cropping for size and composition. Camera’s now take large enough photos that if you have to lose a good portion to get your shot overall it’s still plenty large enough for small prints and displaying online.Quick tip: For editing check your white balance, you may have to bring it back a bit cooler to get the gold color as in some shots they might be a bit warm.

Close Focusing Abilities with 18-55 Kit Lenses on Auto
Update #2 (7/20/15): Price at $999 - Preorder now from B&H Canon Mount | Nikon Mount | Sigma MountUpdate: The lens is now official - Expected arrival at the end of July. No word on price - I suspect it will be under $1000. My comment about the 18-35 ART lens - "it's like carrying around a bag of primes" also applies to this lens and Sigma has actually said something similar "It covers three of the most commonly used prime lenses, 24mm, 28mm and 35mm all in one lens. "- I think they watched my video ;)Listings are now live on B&H Photo but incredibly thin on details we care about - Price and a firm ship date.Will you be ordering?Sigma 24-35 f/2 Canon Mount | Nikon Mount | Sigma MountBased on comments you left on the Facebook post - interest is mixed, many of you feel similar to me, the range here is just short enough to be a little less exciting- though the sharpness and the fact that you get f/2 will be lovely.Original Post:We are a huge fan of the ART series lenses. Every lens I have tried has been exceptionally sharp with top-notch build quality. See what's in our bag for the Sigma lenses we use daily.The next lens Sigma will be announcing is the 24-35 f/2 and to be honest this has me scratching my head. Sure f/2 in a zoom lens is quite amazing, similar to the amazing Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 for crop sensors but that range is awfully short.Are you interested? How would you use? I would be more interested if they could get the range closer to 50, so a 24-50 f/2 would be sweet but ending at 35mm feels a bit limiting.
Photos courtesy of digicame-info.comThanks Knut Aage Dahl for alerting me to the info.Full Press Release from SigmaThe Sigma Corporation is pleased to announce that we are going to introduce the SIGMA 24-35mm F2 DG HSM | Art, the world's first*1 large-aperture full-frame wide-angle zoom lens offering F2 brightness throughout the zoom range.While offering the premier optics of the Art line, this lens covers 24mm, 28mm and 35mm focal lengths. Incredible performance overturns the conventional perception of a zoom lens.SIGMA was determined to create a zoom lens that offers the same brightness and resolution as a fixed focal length lens: in other words, the highest level of optical performance. The result of this challenge was the SIGMA 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art, the world’s first zoom to offer a fast F1.8 aperture value throughout the zoom range. Building on this concept, SIGMA has developed the new SIGMA 24-35mm F2 DG HSM | Art for 35mm full frame sensor. It allows photographers to carry one lens to do the work of three fixed focal length lenses, a 24mm, 28mm and 35mm — with F2 brightness and top optical performance. One package delivers flexible functionality and high convenience. In particular, at the 24mm and 35mm focal lengths, this lens offers the performance that is equivalent to that of two prime lenses in the Art line. Instead of changing one high-performance fixed focal length lens for another, simply zoom. This is a new zoom lens for 35mm full frame sensor SLRs that offers the quality of a fixed focal length lens at various angles of view.Key features1. The world’s first large-aperture full-frame zoom lens offering a wide open aperture of F2 throughout the zoom rangeA large-diameter zoom lens covering the full frame image sensor. Optical performance equivalent to a fixed focal length lens throughout the entire zoom range. These are the concepts the SIGMA 24-35mm F2 DG HSM embodies. It covers three of the most commonly used prime lenses, 24mm, 28mm and 35mm all in one lens. In order to achieve an attractive bokeh effect at wide aperture, we have developed the world's first zoom lens for the 35mm full frame sensor with an F2 aperture value throughout the zoom range*1.2. Outstanding optical performance of the fixed focal length lenses in SIGMA’s Art lineThe SIGMA 24-35mm F2 DG HSM builds on the concept of the SIGMA 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art, the world’s first zoom lens to offer F1.8 brightness throughout the zoom range. Thanks to the outstanding optical performance, the lens provides the quality of high performance fixed focal length lenses in the Art line.3. Covering the range of three fixed focal length wide-angle lensesDelivering excellent functionality and convenience, one lens offers the equivalent quality of three high-performance fixed focal length lenses at F2 brightness: 24mm, 28mm and 35mm. With a minimum focusing distance of 28cm and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:4.4, this lens is suitable for close-up shooting, portraits with an attractive bokeh and deep-focus landscape photography. Photographers have access to the angle of view equivalent to that of three wide-angle lenses without having to switch them. While achieving the desired background effect can be difficult with a conventional wide-angle lens, the large diameter of this lens allows photographers to open the aperture wide and use the shallow focus to achieve stunning results.4. Incorporating SIGMA’s latest technologiesTo realize a large-diameter zoom lens for full frame cameras with F2 brightness, SIGMA designed each and every part with uncompromising care and quality. The lens incorporates large-diameter aspherical lens elements, which require advanced technologies to manufacture, one FLD (“F” Low Dispersion)*2 glass and seven SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements, of which two are aspherical lenses. The advanced optics and optimized lens power distribution minimize spherical aberration, axial chromatic aberration and field curvature, resulting in outstanding optical performance. Even at widest aperture, this lens delivers breathtaking image quality.5. Convenient handlingThe inner focusing system eliminates front lens rotation, enhancing the lens' stability and allowing use of Circular Polarizing filters. This specification is particularly convenient for shooting video.Other featuresMinimum focusing distance of 28cmWith a minimum focusing distance of 28cm and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:4.4, this lens is excellent for close-up photography.Designed to minimize flare and ghostingFrom an early stage in the lens design process, flare and ghosting have been measured to establish an optical design resistant to strong incident light sources such as backlighting. The Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting and provides sharp and high contrast images even in backlit conditions. The included lens hood can be attached to block out extraneous light, which can have a negative effect on rendering performance.Hyper Sonic Motor ensures High AF SpeedThe HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) ensures a silent, high-speed AF function. By optimizing the AF algorithm, smoother AF is achieved. Also, this lens offers full-time MF by rotating the focus ring of the lens while auto focusing*3. Without changing the AF/MF Focus Mode Switch, it allows faster focus adjustment.Rounded DiaphragmThe 9 blade-rounded diaphragm creates an attractive blur to the out-of-focus areas of the image.Brass bayonet mountThis lens incorporates a brass bayonet mount which has both high accuracy and durability. A special treatment to reinforce its strength is applied to the surface giving it greater strength and making it highly resistant to long-term use.Applicable for the Mount Conversion ServiceAs an experienced lens manufacturer that has been creating a diverse range of interchangeable lenses, we have started the innovative "Mount Conversion Service*4". With this chargeable service, the mount of your current SIGMA lenses can be changed to another mount of your choice. It gives new life to your favorite lenses when you wish to use them on a different camera body.Art line delivers high-level artistic expressionSIGMA is organizing all its interchangeable lenses into three product lines; Contemporary, Art, and Sports, where each line has a distinctive concept. Designed with a focus on sophisticated optical performance and abundant expressive power, our Art line delivers high-level artistic expression. With the astonishing rendering performance that meets the highest standard, along with landscapes, portraits, still-lifes, close-ups, and general snaps, they are perfect for the kind of photography that unleashes the inner artist. Ideal for studio photography, they offer just as much expressive scope when capturing architecture and starry skies and many other scenes.Customization and flexible adjustment for convenience or a specific purpose is possible. SIGMA USB DOCK that is designed exclusively for the new lens line-ups.With the optional SIGMA USB DOCK, you can update your lens firmware, adjust focus points and customize Full-time MF function settings as well as the timing to operate the Full-time MF function. By attaching this lens to a SIGMA USB DOCK, which is connected to a computer, the dedicated software "SIGMA Optimization Pro" offers various types of customization and adjustment.New product lines from SGV concepts that are setting new benchmarks for image quality.Design ConceptWith the new product lines, supplied hoods incorporate rubber for the connected part. Lens caps and AF/MF switches are also newly designed in order to improve usability. For the internal parts, various metals and a new material called TSC (Thermally Stable Composite)*5, which works well with metal, are located to achieve products with high accuracy. The lens barrel includes the year of release, engraved for users to recognize when the lens was released.Evaluation with SIGMA's own MTF measuring system "A1"We used to measure lens performance with an MTF measuring system using conventional sensors. However, we've now developed our own proprietary MTF (modulation transfer function) measuring system (A1) using 46-megapixel Foveon direct image sensors. Even previously undetectable high-frequency details are now within the scope of our quality control inspections. All SIGMA 24-35mm F2 DG HSM lenses will all be checked using "A1*6" before they are shipped.Made in JapanAll SIGMA's manufacturing – right down to molds and parts – with a few exceptions, are carried out under a single integrated production system, entirely in Japan. We are now one of the very few manufacturers whose products are solely "made in Japan". We like to think our products are somehow imbued with the essence of our homeland, blessed as it is with clean air and water, and focused, hard-working people. We pride ourselves on the authentic quality of SIGMA products, born of a marriage between highly attuned expertise and intelligent, advanced technology. Our sophisticated products have satisfied professionals and lovers of photography all over the world, because our manufacturing is based on genuine craftsmanship, underpinned by the passion and pride of our experts.Footnotes*1 Among interchangeable lenses for 35mm full frame image sensors (June, 2015)*2 FLD glass is the highest level low dispersion glass available with extremely high light transmission. This optical glass has a performance equal to fluorite glass which has a low refractive index and low dispersion compared to current optical glass. It also benefits from high anomalous dispersion. These characteristics give excellent correction for residual chromatic aberration (secondary spectrum) which cannot be corrected by ordinary optical glass and ensures high definition and high contrast images.*3 The default setting of Full-time MF function varies for each mount.*4 This "Mount Conversion Service" is different from a normal repair. In order to apply for the service, please contact your nearest authorized subsidiary / SIGMA distributor.*5 TSC (Thermally Stable Composite) offers thermal expansion characteristics similar to those of aluminum. Parts made with TSC deform less, making possible lens construction of extremely high precision. As compared to polycarbonate containing 20% glass, a commonly used material, TSC offers approximately 70% higher elasticity. As compared to polycarbonate containing 30% glass, it offers 25% higher elasticity. (Comparison is between SIGMA-produced components.)*6 A1：Aizu 1

The Canon 7D Mark II has a $300 instant savings -brings this FAST dslr down to $1499The 7D Mark II remains my top pick for sports and wildlife photography. Blazing fast AF, fast FPS and a deep buffer combine to make this camera capable of confidently capturing anything on the move. I loved using it for my trip in January to Montana and Animals of Montana with McKay Photography Academy

Youtuber Casey Neistat uses a Canon 70D(among other cameras) to record his popular daily vlogs - They regularly reach several hundred thousand views each day. On a recent blog he got the error "Movie recording has stopped automatically" with his 70D And according to Casey- he get's this often even though he uses a fast card. His method of dealing with the error is. . well you can guess from the title and you can watch the video below. I have it queued up for you to start right before the camera violence.https://youtu.be/dK9SSu3uZ2Q?t=4m21sI have shot with lots of Canon cameras and have a 70D, and we have two 5D Mark III that we regularly use (see what's in our bag) and the ONLY time I get that error is when I am using a card that is slow or bad. Before smashing a camera I would highly recommend trying a different card. He shows the card he uses, they are actually on sale today at Amazon, and even though it states it is a fast card and I have never had an issue with Transcend cards - they can and will go bad or even arrive bad. Also he smashes the lens too which clearly is not part of the problem - it's his gear, he can do what he want but it certainly feels wasteful.
Sony has announced the a7 Mark II and it offers a serious and significant upgrade to the original Sony a7R. I run through the spec lists and share why this may be the camera so many of us Canon photographers are waiting for.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Am2oyKtz5L4 Preorder link: http://bit.ly/Sonya7Rm2Support my work- buy fromB&H: http://bit.ly/TobysBHgearAmazon: http://geni.us/DPRAmazon
