I sold my solid Minolta 50 f/1.4 about a year ago. The Sigma had already come out for N & C. It recently came out for Sony. I picked up a 50mm Sigma and used...
... Much depends on the body and its AF accuracy. Take a A900, microadjust AF and the Minolta AF 1.4/50mm is a very very fine lens. The Sigma does a very...

Nice work David but I must admit I feel guilty not subscribing to the printed issue as it deserves support. Great publication and a credit to you, I hope you...

I like to look at PopPhoto's online reviews or www.dyxum.com to read lens reviews. Dyxum says that Sigma has a $140 & a $220 lens; Tamron has a $160 lens; the...
Nicola, As someone who has "done the lens" thing, the TAMRON AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di LD MACRO simply is the best "bang for the buck." I suggest that you do not...
