Field test Sigma AF 150mm f/2.8 APO EX macro DG lens : During the annual photography course I offer in France, I made extensive use of the Sigma AF 150mm f/2.8 APO EX macro DG lens. There were a few things I wondered about: 'Is its optical quality high enough to serve a 20 million pixel full frame Canon 5D Mark 2?'. Secondly; since I also frequently work in a studio environment; 'Is the auto focus fast and accurate enough in a rather dark studio environment?'. And lastly; 'How does it feel working with a slightly deviating focal length of 150mm for nature and studio photography?'.

Sony Alpha lenses at PMA 2009 : During the PMA, Sony Japan announced several new lenses; that is to say, they have announced the developments. It strikes us that hardly any announcements, if even any at all, were made about the Sony Alpha system during PMA 2009. A large showcase received a prominent place, showcasing the available lenses for the Alpha. Among them, we find the new concept lenses, which were announced rather inconspicuously by Sony Japan during the past week. It is not even likely that these concept models will actually appear on the market as Sony lenses. It's more about showing the possibilities of the Alpha system.
