Testing, Testing: Sigma, Nikon and Tamron

Sigma 105mm f/1.4 for Nikon and Other Lenses: Photographing the same subject with Sigma, Tamron, and Nikon lenses

There is something about testing new gear:

It starts with finding the actual time to do the testing without rushing through it, and you should not rush through it in the first place. Often it’s a step-by-step kinda process

It’s about getting used to using the new gear.

It offers the opportunity to develop new ideas for photo shoots and projects. After all, brainstorming is always good, especially in the creative world.

So, here are a few images of the same subject, a Galileo thermometer, photographed with three of my lenses: Sigma 105mm f/1.4, Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8, and the Nikon 28-300mm all-in-one lens.

I cropped images to show approximately the same positive/negative space.

In the above images, I looked at the bokeh created with different lenses and the overall “look” and feel of the images taken with different lenses.

As always, thanks for stopping by!
