Is there are comparison you can show me what you mean that uses both lenses on the same shot? I searched and found the link above, but most tests are about sharpness or the types of shots I was...

I don't have the Canon 35L to test, but this site 6 months ago certainly helped me decide the Sigma was better across what seemed like every test, including the out of focus areas (or bokeh as you...

I like DxOMark.LuminousLandscape seems to take it very seriously as well. Dpreview collaborates with DxOMark. But sure, you're free to dismiss raw DxOMark data outright. Even though I purchased a...

Okay. Much of the data they reference comes from DxOMark and much of what is left is just physical information that isn't subjective in any way (e.g., weight of cameras, GPS included or not)....

Advantages of the Canon 5D Mark II over the 6D Enjoy your 1/8000 shutter speed versus the 1/4000 of the 6D. For just about everything else:...

I won't use EBAY. I did sell a lens on Amazon recently. Then, many weeks later, the buyer wanted to return the lens because he decided he just didn't need it. Amazon said I could reject the request...

Maybe that's because you're participating in a forum that is almost exclusive to gearheads. ;) There are plenty of sites for composition and the art of photography. And, I spend more time on them...

Fwiw, I've been watching this topic as well. I tried searching on Flickr, but there didn't seem to be a group for this lens and I found someone using it on a Nikon, but I was interested in Canon...

I watched the video of the protectr strap. Why would someone want to cut the strap when they could just walk up behind the woman in that video and squeeze the connect clamps to undo the whole strap...

I am happy with the 6D for the most part. When the RX1 didn't work out for me, but I knew I wanted to go FF then I looked at the FF DSLRs and ranked them this way: 1. Sony A99 2. Nikon D600 3....

The RX1 also has an optional optical VF, fwiw. That's my thinking as well. My concern is the OP is already leaving the DSLR behind here and there. So, the RX100 (or update) might be the most...

I had an RX1 and now have instead settled with the Canon 6D. I have the 40/2.8 pancake when I want to go really small. I purchased the 6D and the Sigma 35/1.4 and the pancake lens for less than the...

You're pretty much a jerk with your approach to discussion; very unwarranted accusations. Some of us are trying to create fine art images across the whole frame including the out of focus areas....

The RX1 is 35mm on FF, which is similar to the Zeiss 24 on the 5N. The 50 on the 5N is more similar to a 75 on a FF. The shots you get with the 50 on your 5N are very different than the shots you'd...

Voigtlander Nokton 35/1.4 on my NEX 5N:

I can't imagine anyone preferring a busier background in a shot like your basketball game. It's difficult to see the basketball when the faces in the crowd are so defined.

I don't think I can run OS 9 on my Pro. I upgraded to OS X fully in late 2001 and never looked back. But yeah, I mean 3TB. My Windows drive is 500 GB (so that's how I got GB in my head when typing...

Yeah, I currently have 4 HDD with 1 being devoted to Windows 7, 1 is my main drive (3 GB) with a SuperDuper duplicate as another 1 (4th is just old files in case I need them - it could be an...

Well, sensor size does play into the quality of the out of focus areas very much, which is why you rarely see pleasing oof areas coming from cell phone captures. So, the whole discussion that Klaus...

The Contax G 90/2.8 is really nice if you're looking for something a little longer and nice for portraits: But it can also be used for street if you have the room:
