I wouldn't touch one.
If you want to get something cheap, make sure it has Intel Processor.
They don't even make alot of software for the IBM stuff AFAIK so if will just be a pain I think.
The Sigma 10-20mm go for quite a bit on eBay, I ended up snapping up a Canon instead because of the little difference. I have seen a few of them go for around £280 on Talk Photography. But generally condition wise you should be ok because they don't see much use.
My local LCE had 3 at the...
The other thing I am unsure about.
This crop factor of 1.6x, is that just an illusion that you are closer caused by the edges of the photo being cropped or does it mean that the photo is actually magnified by 1.6x?
Because I know less is recorded on the sensor (for arguments sake 15mp) so...
I think it is good to have to, as is the IS, but the price just sky rockets when you step up from this one. I am only going to be using it as a telephoto for holiday so I don't want anything to bulky. 2.8 IS is amazing though!
I am worried I won't have enough reach, but we will see I guess...
Haha, I just ordered a 70-200mm f4 l after putting it off for a long time thinking I won't get that shallow DOF. Good choice or not? :S Boredom did it :D
I've heard great things about the Lee systems. I just hear alot of these filter kits don't play with the wide-angle lenses and you need to look into it more carefully :S
Aah my bad, I thought it was a partnership thing :D
Yeah I noticed that, same price at Play.com with possibility of cashback via Quidco. I tried the NC60 at Apple store, they have the Bose too, never seen the NC500 there, but I wasn't looking. If Apple have it on their site (which they do I...
I'll definitely give them a whirl and they are much better value than the Bose at £100 cheaper but I have always been skeptical about The Gadget Show reviews, they are done in a non-sensical way IMO. I know there is alot of this Bose Fanboy stuff and alot of people that hate it too. I personally...
dk,
I don't know which you are referring to but the ones I tried were the Sony MDR-NC60 which seem to be alot cheaper than the price you quote. The sound was just so lacking and poor.
The benchmark I compare to is pretty much the Shure SE-530 or my Sennheiser HD595 as I like the sound profile...
Urgh, I tried Sony, made me feel sick.
If Bose can't get NC Headphones right they should close because they are really common in helicopters and planes.
Thank you.
My 55-250mm seems to get as shallow a DOF at f5.6 (when really close up) as my 50mm does at f1.8, is that what you are explaining, because I am confused, I am sure your photos will explain it though.
Its ok if you want to talk to one person, i.e. girlfriend etc, but not many people use it on BB from what I've seen, might be easier to text or use msn these days. But try it out :s
