And how is the (mechanical/electronic) quality of the tubes? Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! I’m using the Viltrox auto extension tube DG-L. It has electronic contacts so that all the EXIF and aperture settings are working. Tried using it with the 16-35, 24-90, 90-280 and 50mm. All works perfectly. Using the 16-35 for close-up shots is unique as you can focus really close with a wide angle view. There’s minimal degradation in image quality as you’re using the original Leica glass. Even though the SL glasses are not designed for close focusing, I found that the image quality of the Summicron 50mm with the 24mm extension tube has similar sharpness with the Sigma 105 macro which is legendary! https://s.lazada.sg/s.YO2hB Edited March 16, 2024 by fotonutzz 4 Link to post Share on other sites Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

Spodrasky Posted March 16, 2024 Share #122 Posted March 16, 2024 decide to see how well the eye detect to capture and lock on. Shot through the vines. 50SL Summilux wide open. As long as the eye was visible the eye detect stayed on track. When the vines started to obscure the face and eyes it would focus on the vines until the eye came back in view. I felt it did a pretty nice job with the eye detect, way better than the SL2. I normally would just manual focus, however felt the SL3 was doing a good job and was reliable enough.

Obviously I have the opportunity to play with any of the equipment in the store. A friend of mine has a Nikon lens 85 mum 1.2. I was quite impressed also with the Boca from this lens. So we happen to have a secondhand Sigma 85mm in the store I thought I’d give it a go. So I got my daughter to just sit down and took a couple of test pictures. I can see myself possibly buying this although I don’t do that many portraits I just not sure whether I can justify it 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much as I love the 90-280, the lack of a TC is irritating. I havn't had the Sigma for that long time, but so far I am very, very impressed. Fantastic sharpness, ultra-fast focussing (a clear advantage using AFc), generally smooth oof rendering (depending on aperture, distance between the subject in focus and the surroundings, and focal length; so I can't be conclusive here). Smaller and lighter than the SL90-280. I used the latter for some time, and I think the Sigma is a very fine substitute. A few images from todays stroll. SL3 with Sigma 70-200 f2.8 DG DN Sport.

Cleaner than what? I don't see noise until you pass above ISO 6400.Anyway, below 100, you seem to just lose headroom, but gain no shadow depth. I think the possible use for ISO's below 100 is to use mechanical shutter at the beach on a bright day.

The most versatile lens is likely Sigma 150-600, but I havn't any experience with that lens. Regarding optical image quality, I would think Sigma 70-200 - in that focal range - is hard to match. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
