ParticipantI’ve decided I need a new wideangle lens more than I need my studio lights (which, as it turns out, I rarely use.)
So I’m gonna sell the Alien Bees in favor of a Tokina 12-24 or Sigma 10-20 (I haven’t decided which one yet.)
I thought I’d give my Farktographer brethren and sisteren 😉 first shot.
up are 3 AB 400’s, minty, with travel cases.
Speak now, before the *bay gets them.

Participant(In relation to the wide angles, Elsinore has the Tokina and I have the Sigma, I’m sure Elsinore won’t mind if you hit her up for some example shots, and I’m more than happy to provide some if you want to see them in action.)

KeymasterMan, AB’s are on my wish list, but I don’t have the funds currently. Both the Tokina and Sigma are excellent lenses; let us know if you have questions.

ParticipantBTW, my ‘windows’ shot from this week was shot with the Tokina. The camera was located maybe 7-8′ away from the windows, the windows themselves are about 8′ wide. The shot was taken at a focal length of 12mm. I’ve uploaded the high res version to my flickr, you’re welcome to take a look.

ParticipantZeke, Elsinore needs some AB’s for Xmas.

ParticipantWhat’s your asking price? I’m interested in getting some more lighting.

KeymasterHere’s all my Tokina 12-24 f/4 shots up on Flickr currently (but disregard the camera gear shot; that only has the Tokina in it, it wasn’t taken with it 😉 ):
http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=tokina&w=65365136%40N00&z=tI took some shots at the park last weekend that I need to upload, too…

Participantthanks hon. I’ve pretty much decided on the Tokina over the Sigma. I just need lots more than my 18-70 is giving me on the wide end.

ParticipantI love my Tokina 12-24.

I’m trying to decide now between a 20mm f/1.8 and a 30mm f/1.4

ParticipantSilverStag – are you including the lightstands or anything? what’s the price range? feel free to PM or email me if you don’t want to be public about it. 😛
