Another new "toy"...

My new business is all about “raising the bar” in Real Estate Photography and to do this I really needed something special for those interior shots – the wider the angle the better. 

Unfortunately most SLR Digital Cameras, like my Sony A100 and my Dynax 7D have a crop factor of 1.5 and that means that you have to multiply the focal length of any lense by that number.  For example a 17mm Lense becomes 25.5mm which effectively reduces the angle captured.   Luckily Sigma Imaging released a lense for Digital SLRS some months ago and I have been wanting an excuse to buy it for some time now…. the new business has given me that excuse. 

Sigma-10-20mm

On Thursday last week I ordered the Sigma 10-20mm F/4-5.6 EX DC HSM Zoom Lens from www.Sigma4Less.com.  This basically means I will have a 15mm to 30mm lense.  The possibilities for some great interior shots are endless. It’s due to arrive in the morning and I am getting quite excited! I know, thats rather sad… ;-)

When it arrives I will post some shots of the boys!
