Guide Number 14 ISO 100/m (when the flash is fired at full power) Abstract: Six Sigma is a problem solving methodology that emphasises the reduction of defects relative to customer specifications. 52mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm and 77mm adapters are sold separately. Naturally, we offer all the industry standard services you would expect, but in addition we offer our customers. 55mm and 62mm adapter rings are included with the flash. The Yaskawa Service knows exactly what you need. A wireless flash function is also available, where the EM-140 DG is used as master and the EF-500 DG SUPER as a slave unit for creating fine shadow details. The Modeling Flash function makes it possible to check for reflections and shadows before actually taking the flash picture. The flash features a guide number of 14 w/ISO 100. In a C&E Matrix, Customer Requirements (or Ys) are ranked by order of importance to. Using only one flashtube creates modeling, which can give a three-dimensional feeling to the subject. steps to process inputs (Xs) and correlates the inputs to process outputs. Dual flash tubes can fire simultaneously or separately. You’d be surprised what a lowbie DSLR and kit lens can do.The Sigma EM-140 DG Macro Flash is ideal for photographing subjects in fine detail and is extremely effective for scientific and medical applications. Like I always say: getting a hands-on experience of both worlds (cheapo and the expensive L) will be the best teacher making you realize how one lens is severely or impractically different than the other in helping you achieve the photos you want. But whatever negatives you have, you can always compensate it by being resourceful- so buy some lighting and stabilizing gear as well as practice those magical yet shaky hands of yours! That said, it still performs good on big events where there’s plenty of lighting to go about! Well, like those photos I took in the Sofitel event. I love it! Although the major cons I’ve noticed are the (1) slow and noisy auto-focus mechanism and (2) it’s literally road kill in dark locations with an aperture of F4-5.6. Normally, a lens without macro capabilities will not be able to focus on a subject once it gets too close, like so:īut once you flip that switch on the lens even while at 300mm, it can focus just as nicely even when too close.Īnyway, I’m just having too much fun showing you how far this baby goes so here’s a final comparison: For now, let’s define it as extreme close-up photography. What is macro? I’d love to discuss about it in detail- but let’s save it for another post. Here’s another comparison of the Sigma 70-300mm’s zooming capabilities:Īt 17mm (I used the Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 here)Īnother neat feature of this Sigma lens is that you can take macro shots with it once you switch on the ‘macro‘ button when zoomed around 200-300mm. The next day after the event, I got to play with the lens more at the comfort of my own home. Right friggin’ here! I felt like a sniper using this glassĪnd the sharpness of the photos is good to boot, even at 300mm! Here are other samples I shot at the event: Where I was standing when I took the shot? This is a 17mm shot from my original location: And well, I’m surprised how far 300mm can get you! I bought this two days before a client event at Sofitel, in which I used the lens in the said event for the first time. I really wasn’t convinced to buy one of these until I got to experience it first-hand on the occasion I sometimes borrow my friends’ gears. Note: All photos here are uploaded as they are shot, no post-processing have been done That’s why I’m slowly buying and trying out different types of lenses: my first was the portrait 85mm 1.8 (it came with the 2nd hand 550D I bought), then the usual kit lens, another portrait 50mm 1.8, a single-aperture kit Tamron 17-50mm 2.8, and now this. Why buy this lens? Contrary to what I do at Perfect Renders where I specialize in shooting and editing videos, I am still venturing and looking for my so-called ‘home’ in photography. For a cheapo zoom lens, I’m surprised with the quality it can give over the ironically low cost it’s priced for! Well, I guess your standard 70-300mm F4-5.6s are priced around 6,000-9,000 PHP whether it be Nikon, Canon, Sigma or Tamron, after all. Next on my lens to-buy list is the Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Macro! I acquired it for 7,000 PHP at Mayer Photo right along the famous Hidalgo St.
