Posted by ch0psuey4290 I know I'd be better off just getting a decent DSLR from the start, but I simply haven't got the budget for that kind of equipment. So, until I'm done with college, it looks like I'm gonna be stuck with a point and shoot in the $200-$250 range. I know it's ridiculous to expect anything great within this price range, so I don't, but I need something and I would like to know if any of you have any experience with cheap P&S cameras that were decent in low-light conditions. edit: changed price range. Damn car, always needing fixin'. |

Posted by Sledgy 1. ISO 5000 hand held- Why? Just because I can. |
Posted by Sledgy Get good lenses, get good lenses, get good lenses. Most of the problems I have seen people having have nothing to do with the body they use, they have come from using shit glass. Get good lenses. If all that fails, take up chess or something. |
Posted by TheVicariousVadder I'm put off by the sigma 30mm for some reason. |
How about the Tokina 35mm f/2.8? I've read the tokina focus motor is better than the ugly duckling arc drives but not as good as USM and it's $200 cheaper than the Canon 28mm f/1.8. |
Posted by Byberrian Fanman Blatantly soft edges and corners? High levels of sample variation? The fact that it's a Sigma? Take your pick... The Tokina 35mm f/2.8 Macro (1:1, keep in mind) is largely underrated. However, it can also be found under the Pentax label. It's a relatively decent lens. |
Posted by TheVicariousVadder it's down to the EF 28mm f/1.8 for $475 or tokina 35mm for $275. |
Posted by TurboZutek http://www.ddltd.co.uk/ge/DV1.html Scroll down to the bottom and examine the last feature that this camera has. PERFECT FOR UER'ERZ! Chris... |
