One of these things is not like the other...

but actually it is. Corey had a lens from work at his disposal and since we both shoot with Nikon, that meant I got to play with it a little, too. It was a Nikon 70-200mm 2.8 and it was nice and sharp. At $2,000, that means I will likely never own one, which I was lamenting a little until I took a picture with my $100 Nikon 50mm 1.8 that Mica got me for Christmas. I have to say, it was pretty damn sharp when put up against the 70-200. Check it...

This was with the big gun...


This was with my 50mm...


And this was my obligatory art shot with the 70-200, since I had it on my rig and all...


I have some stuff of a BMX nature to discuss in the next blog, so be ready.

I think the $100 lens looks good, but I don't know if the other one looks $1900 better.

You need to pick your top 10 favorite photos. You should post a couple of pics you are on the fence about, and get some opinions.

I agree with Mica, if you are on the fence about any, post'em up. I'll give you the C&C.

I also agree that it doesn't look $1900 better. That's comforting, considering the Sigma is only a few hundred more than the 50. Sweet.

Also, I want to go back to the wall soon and I want to try to scrub the wall where it sticks out...I think I can get it....

You guys need to come by and check out the shelves. Maybe have a beer.
