A bunch of news
I got the replacement for my replacement Sigma. The 18-50 2.8 Macro. I hope it performes well, I’ll test it on my Prague vacations, I’m leaving tomorrow for 6 days. And the last but not least, Widget bucks IS paying (I just got the check today).
I’ve made a few snapshots, it looks like it’s front focus free. That’s always nice to see that, when it comes to Sigma+Canon combo. Besides that, I must say I was satisfied with the non macro version (optically they should be more or less equal), it passed the test nicely, I’ve just had a few AF problems in low light situations on the wedding. I hope this one will perform better, I’ll report about it when I return from Prague. Below you can see the snaps I mentioned earlier.
I focused on the letter M.
This standard FF test was done in a hurry, without a tripod etc. But I can assure you it’s accurate enough to check the focusing accuracy (just not 100% as it would be in case it was made by the book).
