Hi there! How are you? I'm James. Do you have any questions about cameras? Or how about questions pertaining to lenses? How can I help you today?
I have a question about lenses
James S.
I'm looking at a 24-70mm 2.8, canon is way too expensive!!!! so i'm looking at the sigma or tamron. are any of those good?
James S.
It's even f/2.8! So I'd say that's a good lens. :-).
is it better than the tamron, that one is more expensive?
James S.
I wouldn't say it's better than the Tamron, then again, the Tamron is another $550 on top of the Sigma.
I would be using for weddings, so i don't want to give up the image quality of canon, if you know what I mean :-)
James S.
Haha, I understand completely.
The Canon lenses aren't all that much more expensive than the Sigma, but the aperture is a big difference.
I would be ok with paying the $1300 for Tamron if it means better quality than Sigma, $1700 is just too much lol
James S.
Oh yeah, you'd definitely be getting the better quality going with the Tamron than the Sigma.
So I guess you do get what you pay for lol
James S.
Unfortunately there's no shortcuts when it comes to camera gear.
James S.
My wallet wishes there were! haha
Ok I think I'm going to close my eyes and just do it lol ;-) Thank you for your help, I appreciate it!!
James S.
Hahaha. In the long run it will be worth it. Did you have any other questions at this time? :-)
Nope not at this time, wait dumb question it will fit my 5D II
James S.
ok thats it for me then. Thank you :-)
James S.
Alright! Enjoy. And thank you!
