Learningcameras reviewed Sigma’s biggest achievement (so far): The Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM lens, the first zoom lens for APS-C cameras to deliver constant f/1.8 over the zoom range. I featured many reviews here on CW, all praise the outstanding performance of this lens. Learningcameras review isn’t different. More after the break.
Yesterday I reported about the latest achievement of the Magic Lantern team: a hack that allows to obtain 14 stops of dynamic range (3 more than usual), using a a sampling method dubbed “Dual ISO”. Dual ISO means that half of the sensor lines are sampled at ISO 100, the other half at ISO 1600.
Michael Anthony (source: planet5d) produced a test video that compares RAW output and Magic Lantern Dual ISO output on a Canon EOS 5D Mark III. Description and setup after the break.

The brand new Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 lens may be the only lens you ever need to buy for your APS-C camera. According to the DxOmark’s findings the Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 beats all other APS-C zoom lenses, Zeiss full-frame primes, and Canon L lenses too.
Lenstip has 36 sample pictures shot with a Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS 1.4x (Amazon | Adorama | B&H) lens and a Canon EOS-1D X. Thanks Mark.
As much as this is a highly regarded lens, it is not inexpensive ($11,799). Hence, someone might be interested to rent the EF 200-400mm f/4L IS 1.4x at Borrow Lenses (click here).

The Phoblographer reviewed the Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM lens, the first lens for APS-C DSLRs that has constant f/1.8 over the zoom range. All other reviews I featured here on Canon Watch are in line with this one: all praise the excellent build quality, the great sharpness, the fact that this is an outstanding lens. The Phoblographer’s findings weren’t different. Read more after the break.
