50 views Photo Uploaded: Mar 11 2008 22:40:24 GMT Taken: 2008:03:09 16:27:52 Manufacturer: Canon Camera: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTiAperture: F5.6 Shutter: 1/500 sec ISO: 200 Flash: No (Turned off) Playing around with my macro lenses.
This one was taken with my older Sigma 70-300mm macro zoom lens, at the full 300 mm setting. I also set the camera to macro, so I think the fstop was in the 5.6 area. No Photoshopping to increase the sharpness (I did adjust the light levels to bring out contrast, but that's it).
Check it out at full size, and compare it to the one I post with my new Tamron 28-200mm lens.
I think the old lens wins in this comparison, but it might just be that my hand wasn't steady enough on the other photo. Might have to use the tripod next time, to take my shaky hands out of the equation.... | |
