It's funny when someone posts the same thing that was cleared up just a few posts before. You usually expect it from the noobs, not the established members.

True, everyone is free to do whatever they want. Still doesn't make much sense.

You are mostly right, it doesn't make sense, but still, a lot people did that. Well, 5D2 still provides some other advantage than more pixels compare to T4i, and people might just have the extra...

Doesn't matter what the cost is. A poor super zoom lens on a full frame sensor just doesn't make sense. Better off buying a T4i with the super zoom and have some money left over for other stuff. ...

That said, the full frame starts to trickle down to more and more hands now especially with the canon refurb deals we saw all the time, for $1500, people started to get the 5DII instead of 7D, not...

The 70-300mm VC Tamron is 27oz and is about as heavy as the 70-200mm f/4 (non-IS). Compared to high end L lense telephoto zooms, no, it isn't that heavy, but for people used to the idea of the...

I'm not sure about this lens, but I have a Sony 18-200mm for my NEX and it is my go-to lens for my trips. It takes excellent pictures at all ranges and OSS in-lens really makes a big diff so maybe...

It would be a real shame to use a cheap super zoom like this on a full frame camera. You would lose all the advantages a full frame sensor can give you by sticking this type of lens in front of it.

No, this Sigma lens is 16.6 oz (470 g), not 22 oz.

My birding setup (300 2.8 IS, 1d3, 1.4xIII, battery pack, 580exII, better beamer, +attachments/xtra batteries) has me tromping around the woods with close to 15 pounds, all shot handheld. I'd...

If you think the Tamron 70-300 is heavy, then you've shut down pretty much every tele zoom, with the exception of the APS-C specific entry level models (55-200, 55-250, etc). The truth is, it's...

I am aware that the tamron 70-300 has gotten good reviews since its recent release, but I've had enough negative experiences with Tamron in the past that I wouldn't touch them, regardless of their...

Depends what you think "real" constitutes. The Tamron 70-300mm VC lens is pretty well regarded and is better than both the 55-250mm Canon and the 70-300mm IS. Build quality is much better and it has...

It's still fullframe and APS-H compatible, you're just going to have to deal with a little bit of vignetting. While it is true they're not great for low-light shooting, the same can be said of...

None of the superzooms will do as well as separate shorter-range lenses with low light. Both this Sigma lens and the Tamron 18-270mm which is considered its closest competitor have a widest aperture...

My thoughts exactly. 90% of people take photos in the midrange anyway, and it's not often that you have to switch between telephoto and wide angle. Even an 18-55mm covers a decent range. Plus, it...
