Thats about the price ive seen most stabilised versions of that lens go for.TehAshleigh wrote:Im prob not going to be shooting again until D1 next month in Taupo, now that the mx is gone im trying to save oodles of cash. Anything thats spare will be likely to go into a lens. Id be keen to check it out if you do any days in pukekohe though, im virtually up the road 90% of the time because thats where Andrew lives. I can always swing by with a body!
Is yours image stabilized though Daniel?
I was also looking at this lens - http://www.trademe.co.nz/electronics-ph ... 710428.htm . ignore the price and stuff, it was just the first one i found on trademe. I wont be able to afford one till the end of d1 season at least though. Rent to pay, etc.
Mines non-is so you have to refrain from having too much sugar while using it
As BRM said i too have found a slightly heavier body and lens to have helped my panning a lot on longer shutter speeds.
Not having media pass is a little bit of a pain but it just makes you be a bit more creative in your positioning to get the shots.
Heres some sample shots ive taken on my 70-200mm f4 L non-is (click for full size)
