“I believe photographers should shoot what they want, not shoot what they get.” – Roberto Valenzuela
Hello, Photo Buffs,
A joke- A photographer went to a socialite party in New York. As he entered the front door, the host said, ‘I love your pictures - they’re wonderful; you must have a fantastic camera.’ The photographer said nothing until dinner was finished. Then she said, ‘That was a wonderful dinner; you must have a terrific stove.’ Remember that equipment is just that- a means to an end. You are the master of what type of photo comes into existence, not your camera.

With this in mind, SIGMA introduced the 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary lens, a great little “kit” lens to handle most situations, designed to be compact, sharp, bright, and easy to use.
