That is amusing. All Your Base stuck out like a sore thumb to me. I can see where viewers on other sites didn’t recognize you, but I bet your friends and family would. You should test them.

Added another one I just took w/the 85mm. I’m really liking that lens.

Thank you. I did bounce the flash off the ceiling in the stairway shot of Levi. I believe I did with the Lana as well. She’d just fallen asleep and looked too cute not to take a picture of. It probably is a […]

I just noticed that my comment to your latest post, and my forum post didn’t show up (on another device) until I was logged in. I wasn’t sure if that was by design or not.

Feel free to critique. They aren’t posed, setup, or special in any way, just snapshots I liked.
Thanks for looking.

LOL @ “All Your Base…”
Was that clip-art Matthew that made an appearance in the video? :P
Those sounds sure brought back some memories!

I like the 70-200 + 2x teleconverter if this is something he’ll need continually going forward. If not, another option might be to rent one or two longer focal length lenses.

Bummer. Seemed like a decent price too.
I hoping they come out with a nice 24-105 f/2.8.
I know it wouldn’t be your favorite on a crop sensor camera, but the range would be nice for indoor sports.

This would be the comparable Sigma wouldn’t it?

I was going to add that, but the old site was down so much, I was starting to think that he was really just turning it off so he didn’t have to put up with us 24/7.
Haha

If someone could make an 18-135 f/2.8 with good optical quality, I’d buy one for APS-C. I was perfectly happy with my old Nikon 18-135, as I’ve probably told you a dozen times
