A&P Sigma 10-20 on my 1dmkiiN

I finally got a chance to try my 10-20 on my 1d, and i must say its quite exquisite. without hood, it doesnt really vignette unles its at 10mm. it works really well at 11mm up until f9-f18 where you see slight vignette, but very very little, i would say 2% into the corners. Perfectly usable. I thought i was going to sell this lens and getteh 12-24 mainly sue to its FF compatibility, but this works great...

Here are the pics.

11mm at f4.5


11mm at 6.3


11 at f9



all of which can easily be eliminated in post.
11mm @ f9 PP'd out the Vignette, really easily too, LENS correction 100% and done. (still a little there but def not a problem)

kel-tec ftl! lozl j/k

nice pictures, i've been seriously debating on picking up a wide angle for my wife, and i've heard good things about the sigma 10-20. Is there any other lens out there that is comparable in picture quality but for less? or is the sigma pretty much the "cheapest" it gets?

*edit* sigma 10-22mm f/4-5.6 is what i was lookng at.

 

the sigma 10-20 is the beezneez, ive had 2 of the sigma and 2 of the Canon USM. Both my Canons were soft on teh left side, both my siggys have been sharp as fuck.

and btw my PF9 is the shit, i carry it everyday with any kind of clothes. Pocket carry ftw!!!!

I also have a Taurus PT1911 (cheapest most dependable 1911 i have ever shot), Kimber Warrior, Steyr M9, DPMS AR15, and Savage Win .308 rifle

I love my guns, reason i live in Vegas vs California

 

we here in texas call kel-tecs throw down guns. throw em down for the badguy to use cause chances are it wont go off.lozl. lil shootin range humor.


is there much of a difference between the sigma 10-22 vs the canon model other then brand name and price?

 

Its either the sigma 10-20 or the Canon 10-22. I would look up some reviews on them, everyone has their own opinions. Lens distortion and sharpness are also different most likely

 

sigma 10-20 is better at handling distortion, canon is supposed to be sharper, havent noticed that at all having owned both.

both are prone to flare, i think its the nature of a UWA. Canon has a slight edge on contrast, and i do mean slight. not worth the 200 plus price difference. Also teh build is soooo much better on teh siggy. the canon feels like a plastic toy

 

the pf9 has never had an FTE or FTF, it goes bang anytime and every time i want it to, I bet my life on it everyday

 

thanks.

 

1) where is the 10mm shot
2) go take a picture outside and lets see if the sides are blurry

 

Have you ever used a sigma 30 f/1.4? I wan't one but afraid it won't be sharp

 

I've used it quite often and its sharp, the only issue i've had is that sometimes it front/back focuses.

 

1. 10mm has some dark dark corners, ill probably no go there.

2. Ill do that tomorrow.
