The sigma is also getting rare to find. The 50-135 will complement your tamron well, only trouble is once you get one you will start wanting the 16-50 ��

I use the S1 option and fire via on board flash on the mkii versions, I assume you can on the mkiii.

Shot over 500 shots like that today at a wedding where I set up a booth. The mkii never missed once.

Either pc or tablet. I have been playing around with my eyefi card and if set the jpeg to 5 megapixels transfer is pretty fast, so if I shoot raw plus jpeg and choose to just send the jpegs which works pretty quick.

The transcend has a good feature the eyefi doesnt and that is being able to see what is on the card then choose that image, on the eye fi you have to select the image on teh camera and then choose protet to send.

they should have started with the 60.250 and made it f/2.8 for the same price.

A couple of new teleconverters would be nice.

Well a 2.8 60-250mm would have a front lens element of at least 90mm and maybe another 50% longer in size, imagine the weight of thing nevermind trying to make that for the same price.

As for teleconverter, one has been on the lens map for a whilst now
