bytearray's comment is very true, but for me 85mm is a bit pricey, i think it is around 17k and up for canon (f1.8)

while 50mm(f/1.4) is only 4k in hidalgo

 

is the price on the 50mm f1.4 correct? wow that is cheap...i'm a nikon user and the nikon f1.8 is around P5500...and the 1.4 is much much higher...(don't remember anymore)...

 

there is an advantage for the 85mm lens if used for portraiture...you have more flexibility in terms of shooting distance from your subject. also, if i am not mistaken, the 85mm lens (for nikon) is also a macro lens...so 2 birds with one stone...

Anyone have an idea regarding features/specs of Canon 60D?

[PartPastTime]

Im using a Canon 450D and I upgraded my basic lense to 18 to 200mm. Photography is more of a hooby for me rather than doing it for professionally. I usually travel once a year and I always bring this dslr with me to capture moments...

 

Nag try ako sumali sa mga local competitions and sinuwerte na rin na manalo. Pero, I dont use photo shop to edit my pictures. Wala kasi ako photo shop at di rin naman ako marunong gumamit nun... I just shoot, tapos adjust ng camera tapos shoot ulit. I just play around with the aperture, shutter speed and ISO.

 

Im going to Bahrain this September 9 to 12 to have a photo walk there. Share ko na lang dito yung pics na makukuha ko if everyone would permit...

I'd like to ask where I could buy pieces of lighting equipment, affordable and convenient ones? I really am trying to work on lighting, it's basically a weakness I'm trying to fix. LoL.

Was thinking of buying 35mm afs. It is worth buying this lens? or should i buy instead an sb600?

[whiteninja]

Mga sirs, ano po ba ang magandang prime lens na marerecommend nyo for a Canon mount? San po makakabili at how much kaya to? What do you prefer Canon, Sigma or Tamron say if you are on a budget?

 

I'm using Canon 50D.

 

Thanks in advance.

[RiverJordan]

how come it's so quiet in this thread, i thought it'd be busier judging by the number of Canon & Nikon users on the board.

 

i want some tips!!!

[altaroflion]

Its PHOTOWORLD time once again.

I'm a newbie sa photography working here in SG.

I use a EOS 550D Canon lenses 18-550 (Kit) and 55-250mm.

 

Mahal na hobby, pero the best advise given to me is this.

Invest less on the camera body and more on the lens.

 

Pinagiipunan ko pa ang pambili ng legit na photoshop for post processing...

 

If you're into this like me, well be sure to work on a budget...

Haha, my bad posted na pala on this.

 

Well in response to all your comments.

It is true that the 18-55MM is a bad choice.

Though the lens is very much indespensable.

It can be fitted with lens extensions to do other works like standard macro or ultra-wide angle shots.

 

I'll go for a 50mm 1.8f as the 1.4f doesn't fit with my budget.

Still working on getting this lens though.

 

I had an additional lens 55-250MM for standard zooms.

The lens is adequate for regular events that I cover and street shoots which I fancy a lot.

 

My primary objective as a photographer is to be creative and cost effective.

With this, I invest on what equipment I'll get.

Which reminds me this, it will all come down to post production.

[EFF-EXS]

Whether you're into Film or Digital, it boils down to both preference and convenience. The principles of photography nevertheless remains the same. If you do not understand what you're doing even if you're using a DSLR, you won't get great pictures. Ang hirap kasi sa atin, maraming epal na "feeling photographer" coz they have DSLRs strapped around their necks. Ayun it just became another status symbol since these things are rather expensive. Its pathetic really.

 

This is sad, but true...

I saw a lot of them noong umuwi ako ng Pilipinas.

Kahit din naman dito sa SG marami nyan, including myself to them.

 

Owning a DSLR is one thing, being a photograper is another.

Kaya nga ang tanong ko sa sarili ko bago ko pindutin ung shutter button,

will I be able to convey the proper message with my pictures?

 

But this doesn't stop me instead it burns within me as a passion.

So learn from every picture that you shoot.

Learn from the people and things around you.

 

Cheers.

The best ang Sigma lense.

Mahal nga lang sa Pinas...

Mahal nga lang sa Pinas...

 

I've ordered a Sigma f/1.4 EX DG HSM recently but I've yet to receive it.

compared to the Canon f/1.4 the Sigma produces better bokeh, though there have been mentions of AF issues.

 

we'll see, hopefully I don't get a dud one.

Recently got into photography as a hobby. First time dslr user. Got a 7d and the 17-55 lens. It is awesome. Makes me look like a better photographer than I really am
