New toys...

Postby Raskill on Wed Sep 22, 2010 4:07 pm

Well, I ordered some new toys a little while ago, and have to tell someone! :roll: :wink:

I have treated myself to:

Sigma 70 - 200 F2.8 O/S

Sigma 15mm Diagonal Fisheye 2.8

Sigma 12-24 4.5 - 5.6

All three lenses compliment my existing Sigmas, and will get some trial by fire at Bathurst in October. Also, all three are DG, meaning, they will work with FX bodies. So, heres hoping there are no issues, I have been fortunate and had nothing but great images out of all my Siggies.

I have purchased them from Camerapro in Brisbane, who were exceptionally easy to deal with. Order has been processed and good going with courier today, and depending on the courier, may arrive tomorrow.

Will post more once I have a play with them after arrival.
:D

That's a nice haul and you would have got great prices compared to Nikon. All the best with them and hoping to see some pics.

 LOL, I need to get it trackside at Bathurst this week. Looking forward to it a lot.

I'll post in the 'Journey' section, plenty of images. Fear not!
