  • No offense, but why do you keep buying gear when it's obviously you know nothing about photography?

  • @alinthebest why is it so obvious i know nothing about photography ?

  • Looks really nice! Love the quality.

  • Great first look Adam! Are you using the sd90 for this?

  • @hairybearz The way you work it out is how many times can a the smallest number into the biggest number, So 17-70 is 4.1x

    On DSLR you tend not the get huge zoom ranges, as they tend to introduce things like barrel distortion and huge drops in light. For instance the P500 from nikon, half way through the zoom range your already down to f5.7. Bridge camera offer huge zooms but usually at the expense of image quality

  • Superb video mate…I'm going to order one of these off the back of your review

  • @alinthebest

    tipic romaneste: datul cu parul din prima.

    Omul a facut un efort pt unii pe care ii intereseaza, tu ce ai facut in afara de a sta dupa internet si a arunca cu gunoi?

    -----------

    typical Romanian: hitting before thinking.

    This guy made an effort for interested people; what did you do other than hiding behind the Internet and throwing with garbage?

  • @MrThaibox123 hateers gonna hate

  • Hi, what is video recording like with this camera? Someone told me you hear a clicking noise when you change aperture during recording. I'm looking for a silent lens for video. Thanks

  • @simon44 thanks a lot :) i just bought the lens and i am trying this more this weekend :) you have cool videos :)

  • @acesofgambit 17-70 is more practical for travel use. The wider the better for street use. However, if you're photographing wildlife then the 17-70mm may not cut it. You can always crop your picture but its not the same really. If you don't mind getting a separate long zoom lens like a 100-200mm you can get them really cheap.

  • @acesofgambit it is better to spread lenses. get this sigma and the canon 55-250mm is!

  • hello please help.

    im quite crazy now lol. i am planning to buy new lens and i already sell my kit lens (18-55mm)

    PLease help me ASAP if you can. which is better for all around lens canon18-135mm, sigma 17-70mm or tamron 18-200mm. i shot portraits,street and nature.i got canon 450D please help :)

    duke

  • Hi bro ~~ great video

    want to ask : the f2.8 will stay until what focal range ??

    is it going to constant stay at f2.8 at 17mm all the way ?

    Regards

  • Do you buy all of your equipment or are you sent them purely for the reviews?
