NEW: Self-Portrait (Sean & Amber) using the Canon 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5

[Sean Setters]

After being completely disappointed with the autofocus performance (or lack thereof) of the Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8, I purchased a refurbished Canon 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 to replace it. So far, I'm really enjoying the way the world looks through this lens.

Sean,


Cool Shot. Lens looks sharp wide open. Was that at 10mm?


Did you use any post lens distortion adjustment?

Looks good, who's your barber?

I changed the original post to show it was at 10mm. And oddly enough, this is straight out of camera.

I do my own. ;-)

That's very impressive. My 17-35 f2.8L on my 5D wouldn't look that rectilinear. I don't think the 16-35 would either.


Your camera must have been perfectly aligned to the horizon. Man the verticals are blowing my mind!!


OK, photozone is showing very well controlled barrel distortion on that lens.


Wow, that's really cool. And on APS-C of all things. []


Sean, Looks like you've found a keeper!!


Thanks

[Sean Setters]

Yeah, I've been pretty darn impressed with it so far. I had planned on taking it out this evening to do some shots with it outside, but it rained all day. Therefore, you get to see my messy kitchen. ;-)

Sean,


Come on dude! Where's that wet street at night with the strobe thing man?


Rain and night, now there's a challenge. []

If this is your definition of a messy kitchen, I should be embarassed

Cool Shot.

Literally cool, the camera was placed in the fridge [H]

So far, I'm really enjoying the way the world looks through this lens.

I am glad this lensworks for you.


Nice work, Sean (as always).A veryoriginal, yet simple self-portrait.
