this lense is for full frame digitals or 35mm film. you can read it on the sigma site, www.sigmaphoto.com

has anyone ever sent in a speedlight to Nikon for repair? i'm trying to figure

out if the shipping cost/repair cost is worth me doing it. the tilt on my

sb-26 does not lock at the 0 degree point after my father dropping it on the

floor. other than that, everything works as per normal. if anyone can give an

account of your repair of a speedlight and cost, that would be greatly

appreciated!! (plz specify cdn funds or american or other) thank you for your

feedback.

i have the Sigma 70-300mm and have shot thousands of images with it. it's cheap, and just as good as the others in the category. the macro works great as well, as it is my primary macro taking lense. if you want images results, let me know.

there have ben no firmware updates to the D70s.

good point about the green rectangle, or auto mode. it might, but i do not use any of the digi-vari programs on that knob. just Aperture priority.

i have an odd problem occuring with my images, or the image data to be

specific.

first off, i have had my camera(D70s) set up to Adobe1998 colour space profile

for the last 99% of the year and a half i've owned it. however, sometimes when

i open up an image in Photoshop CS, it prompts me of a conflicting colour

space.(i have everything colour managed of course; camera, printer, program...)

so after getting the prompt, i go back to the exif to double check, and sure

enough, it is different, even after checking with another program. it seems as

though the camera just uses sRGB profile here and there when it wants to.

example: i may take 100 images, and 1-3 images may be like that, sometimes

less, sometimes a couple more.

 

so my question is this, has anyone ever encountered this problem, or know of

it ever happening to anyone? could this be something big enough to bring to

nikon's attention for a possible service of the camera? comments...

kind of a waste of money to buy B&W filters, when you have photoshop...

in my opinion, polerizer and ND are the only ones you need with digital.

why is it that digital has made things so new for photography for people? did something change? what's the difference between a shoebox and a computer? you want to keep old phots, you keep them. you want to keep crap photos, you keep them. does it matter where they are? people are so concerned about loss now, and backing up of images, thinking that moving them to another location will make things "safer". there is no difference between your house burning down and all your prints going with it, or your computer crashing or someone's fat ass sits on your back-up disk, and ruins all the horrible images that you made. constant debates over this camera and that...

let's get out there people, take some pics, develop/upload, print them, hang them on your wall and enjoy. it better than worrying whether your gonna have these images for a while and whether they are gonna be around.

what are you doing looking at an old camera like the D100 anyway? that was rendered useless ages ago.

also, i wear glasses, but use contact lense most of the time. if your looking at getting certain cameras because of wearing glasses, then you've got issues my friend.
