Sigma 10-20 on Nikon D70s

sgfriend · 15th January 2006

Morning manage to take out this lens for testing (Very Sunny)

ISO 200 WB AUTO SHUTTER 1/200 F11 FL 10mm

ISO 200 WB AUTO SHUTTER 1/2000 F4 FL 10mm

ISO 200 WB AUTO SHUTTER 1/20 F5.6 FL 10mm

Hope this help for those looking for Sigma 10-20mm lens.

Seriously... the perspective distortion looks as good as the AF-S 17-35 and much better than EF 16-35L!

But colours wise and sharpness will need some PP.

sgfriend · 15th January 2006

The original images are sharped. Maybe I resized it to 800 pixels and saved as web photo. Each image is only about 48KB.

alechim · 15th January 2006

have to PP on the contrast definitely..

if u wanted to demonstrate the lense's capability, dont jpg compress so much

man you should have seen other lens...the buildings will be bent!
at least in the pic, the buildings are straight and shot at 10mm wide!

WOW!!!

Many thanks for posting those pics... looking forward for more. Still very undecided between this and the Tokina.

P.S. 10mm is really wide.

Convert from Raw to Jpeg using Adobe Element. Then resize to 800x532 for web upload at quality 60 (79.5kb)
