EQUIPEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY<br />
She not really followed the technology very much because she more focusing on<br />
the process and try to get the best result. When she started to take picture, she<br />
only used Nikon D50 and she upgrade slowly. But the most important for her is<br />
studio lighting. Because, with good studio lighting, she can control everything, so<br />
it’s not that important to get newest camera with big megapixel. Currently she<br />
using Nikon D700 camera with several lens.<br />
SIGMA 35MM 1.4 “A” SERIES<br />
REVIEW<br />
Sigma Corp. announced it during the 2012 Photokina Exhibition. This lens<br />
basically is a part of Sigma “A” series of lenses and their target market is for<br />
pro-consumer photographer. This lens was designed for full frame camera for<br />
each camera mount. But it is also can be use for crop-sensor cameras (APS-C).<br />
TECHNOLOGY<br />
Coming with Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM),<br />
it makes this lens very quite as we do not<br />
realized that there is a motor on it. Beside<br />
that, it can focus very fast even during low<br />
light condition. This lens also has a floating<br />
internal focusing system that allows you to<br />
get superior optical performance when we<br />
want to do a close-up picture. Sigma Corp.<br />
upgrade the glass for this lens and use the<br />
SLD along with FLD glass element, which<br />
are equal to fluorite to help and get correct<br />
both axial and chromatic aberration. All this<br />
upgrade and new technology for this lens<br />
make it one of the best lens in the league.<br />
STUDIO VS OUTDOOR<br />
She enjoys, comfortable and loves doing studio photography because she can<br />
control everything by herself. But in her opinion, if you shoot outside you will never<br />
know either its going to rains, windy, heavy snow or etc. it quite challenging. She<br />
hopes that people keep coming to any studio to do a photoshoot. After all, it’s up to<br />
public what style of photography they want.<br />
She hopes that people will keep coming to studio to do a photoshoot otherwise<br />
no more studio will be open sooner<br />
When asked about what she do on free times. She said “I always<br />
spends time with her kids who are 7 and 10 years old.<br />
Beside that, I love cooking and baking as well”. But most of<br />
her free time she will spend with her children.<br />
SHARPENESS<br />
Even though this is a third party lens, but the result of the photo surprisingly<br />
amazing. At first, I am not a fan of third party lens because I have a horrible history<br />
with it. But after a few years and Sigma come out with this lens, I am quite interested<br />
to tried it and after gave a shoot with few outing, I am quite impressed. For<br />
the price almost half of the expensive first party lens likes Canon and Nikon, you<br />
can get a very sharp image from it, even when used at its wider apertures, though<br />
it must be stopped down slightly for maximal sharpness.
