i dont think there's a constant f/2.8. it's just that the minimum aperture is 2.8, then when you zoom in it decreases (higher number)

both the Nikkor and Tammy can stay at f/2.8 at any length (constant) of course you can close it down if you choose too ...

Thank you, sir! I'll have to try that next time, and mess around with it more. Your pictures are ridiculously good

I like taking pictures of things. sometimes people or places but mostly, just things.
I have a crappy little digital camera though. I see peoples' blogs and whatnot with extra clear pictures of some movie tickets/ something lying on a table,little things like that.
Thats what really interests me. I want to buy a camera that is good for that kind of stuff but I dont even know what to look for. Any help?

Mr Fongstarr - Thanks man. I wish canon had a 10mm, because I feel they always have the nicest lenses. But there is nothing to complain about for the sigma,its an amazing lens!

haha yea i do live in miami. and yup, i try to do it from a distance, but that lens is a 24mm 1.4, great for night shots.. not so great fordistance. so yea i usually walk up to people or take one without them knowing. im looking into the 85 1.2, but id really love a 70-200 1.8 =OOriginally Posted by Rawk On
Did you just go up and ask them to take their picture? Were they cool? I've always wanted to do street portraits but i feel like people will want to kill me or my camera...i live in MiamiOriginally Posted by DJ bana
termanology- i love that first image, the reflections are perfect. i love the second also.. the detail of those rocks is really neat, but im disrtacted by the overexposure of the picture... maybe lower the exposure or the lights a little bit? great stuff.
I'm guessing you do too.
oh and, im a girl. sometimes females and people in general are more hesitant to be comfortable when a guy is taking their pic.. idk ive just found that to bethe truth over time.

also, I LOVE THIS!
awesome perspective and framing. would love to see the original shot in color also.

Drich - I like the 1st shoot the second shoot is good aswell but the blurriness on the guy sitting down and the hard shadow on the rapper/singers face is alittle to much for my taste ...
Dj Bama did you mean 70-200 f/2.8??? Also here's that picture in color .. have a bunch of street shoots but to lazy to post ...

Si, typo
the person using that 200 f/1.8 must love that fix range to be dropping 3500+ on that lens ..
