Rumors hint at super-fast Sigma 50-100mm F1.8 Art lens for APS-C DSLRs
Rumors suggest Sigma is getting ready to launch a 50-100mm F1.8 lens for APS-C cameras. Full specifications and convincing images of the lens have been leaked, suggesting the lens will be part of the company's impressive 'Art' range. Such a lens would offer a fast partner to the company's 18-35mm F1.8 Art lens, giving the same angle-of-view, depth-of-field and total light gathering capability as a ~75-150mm F2.8 lens on full-frame.
Specifications reported on Digicame-info.com seem plausible, so we're looking forward to next week's CP+ show in Yokohama, Japan, to see if the rumors are true. We'll be reporting from the show, so stay tuned for all the details.
|Lens construction (elements/groups)
|Filter size
|Minimum focus distance
|Aperture blades
|170.7mm (mount not specified)
The site suggests a price of ¥167,400 (~$1500) and a launch date of April 22nd.

too bad there's no full frame version. I'd replace my canon 24-105L
It would be interesting a comparison (price) between:
Wonder if they are finally going to add any weather sealing at the mount?
If this gets a full frame version, I'm in!
I'm not so certain about that. The 18-35 1.8 also got a FF version for a reasonable price. ;)
Why did DPR felt the need to add "... giving the same angle-of-view, depth-of-field and total light gathering capability as a ~75-150mm F2.8 lens on full-frame."?
It wasn't like different film formats did not existed well before...
Many photographers grew up using 35mm film cameras and are used to thinking in terms of what characteristics a particular focal length and f-stop give on that format. Writers in the photo industry surely know this and provide equivalency information to make it easier for those photographers to visualize the angle of view provided by a particular focal length.
It simply makes it easier to name a "standard" that the majority of photographers can understand and use that as a basis of comparison between formats. Even though it doesn't make much sense to call 35mm sensors "full frame" that's what the industry settled on as the standard and so what is used for comparison.
In the film days, people knew how to multiply.
And that larger film format was less grainy when printed even though the grain sizes were the same...
And field of view, and depth of field. And hence the difference between Pentax-110 70mm F2.8 mounted on a Pentax Auto 110 and an SMC Pentax-A 75mm f/2.8 mounted on a Pentax 645.
I think it's helpful to ensure buyers are clear on what they're getting. When I first was interested in the APS-C sigma art lens, I didn't feel 100% sure whether the aperture specifically was translated into the 35mm equivalent or not.
You would think anyone spending $1000+ for a lens would know this stuff, but... you'd be wrong, it's not something the lens manufacturers bend over backwards to make clear, they're happy to let you think you're getting a true f/1.8. And equivalence in general is confusing for many people (witness all the threads on it in the forums).
In fact some manufacturers go out of their way to deceive you. For example panasonic's FZ superzooms describe the focal length in 35mm equivalent, but not the largest aperture... so they are claiming the camera has a 25-600mm lens at f/2.8, which would be a 40 pound lens if it existed.
Tony Northrup has a pretty good video on a few others with tricky marketing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtDotqLx6nA
Make it f2.0, and add OSS.
Canikon's 50 and 85mm f1.8's are excellent, light and small. I can live with 18-35mm f1.8 and 20-35mm f2.0, but this lens's weight and sizes scream for OSS.
On the other hand, if you accept the weight and the size, I'm sure that it'll be as good as primes.
Great addition, but why no OSS? Their FF 70-200 f/2.8, which is roughly the same diameter and weight, has OSS.
Looks like it will be great. As a stand alone piece of kit it will be nice, but I wonder if it will be a big seller due range is a little limited. I did think at some stage sigma would follow up the 18-35mm with something like this, but more so thought they'd do a 35mm to 100 ish.
Either way, nice to see new cool tech coming. It's out of my radar though
With these types of lenses the need for full frame bodies will diminish.........
Actually it's the other way around: this proves once and for all that fast glass is big no matter the format and you're better off using full frame.
Full frame has never been unilaterally "Better". A different way to think about it is that full frame is more flexible. You can extend your shutter speed to get a cleaner image, or trade shallower depth of field for faster shutter speed. etc. It is still a set of tradeoffs, you have to give something up to get something.
Think about the price difference between a D500 or 7D2 plus this lens vs the FF equiv body & lens.
The announcement price of the Sigma 70-200mm EX DG OS HSM was $1699. But even at the current $1399-$250 "savings" price, how much does that (unofficial estimated US price difference) $350 get you towards an FF body? If you need the longer reach and this lens omits OIS then the comparison is irrelevant.
It really depends on the price. If it's available for ~$1250, then that's cheaper than the 70-200f4 VR/IS models (I think, not that knowledgeable about Canon) and over two stops faster, though heavier.
OIS is overrated to some extent. If you've got something able to sit still for long enough, then sure OIS is useful, but if you're shooting moving subjects, what shutter speeds are you using that don't have blur but are still using the OIS?
the canon 70-200/2.8 is about 1250$, and the IS version arround 2000$. The 70-200 F4 IS is 1200$... so it really depends.
For most users, the 70-200/2.8 with any FF body (or even crop) will be a better option. Also the F/4 IS is probably a better option for me for example (non pro, who prefer a lighter lens), no matter how good the lens will be. But on the other hand, it is a very interesting lens, and i hope it will be at least as good as the rest of their Art line.
For me it is about how well will this lens play on FF camera. YES, APSC lens on FF, is my secret recipe for wonderful Bokeh.
My 50-150 2.8 was one of APSC lens that I loved to use on Full Frame camera, it render beautiful bokeh and 80% of the frame can be used. Making it a 60-180 F3.2 , angle of field , depth of view , FF equivalent lens.
Too bad it failed in a rain...
This one has a suggest price of 1500USD , for this money i could get a canon 6D + Sigma 70-200 2.8 .
**So I will need to see how well will this lens play on FF camera , if it can work like a 60-120 mm F2.3 ish lens, only then it will be interesting.
Yea when I was using Crop I never had the luck of owning the 50-150 2.8 But I've heard nothing but great things about it.
This lens would ROCK on my D7200 for headshots and low light shots... can't wait to try it out on the Oct Cruiseboat Photoshoot... ;)
Finally a lens I suggested to them when the 18-35 1.8 had just come out has become a reality :) Im quite satisfied although did not expect that filter size.
Great portrait weapon from Sigma. I'm sure the optical quality will be on par with the rest of the series, but the lack of OSS (optical image stabilisation) is a bit puzzling, especially if you consider the size of the lens... Is it just possible to shoot @160mm without OSS ?
My experience with the Sigma 35 f1.4 ART and 50mm f1.4 ART and 18-35mm f1.8 ART is that it's Impossible to focus consistently on Canon bodies unless you use live-view and have dual pixel AF. Then it's 100% ultra accurate, altho slower shooting.
Using live view means you don't get to hold your camera as steady as you normally would, and the camera never shoots as fast. Sold my sigma 35mm for the new canon 35mm. same quality, but way better AF accuracy, and $700 more, which was well worth getting perfect shots.
Granted sigma is on a roll, but they should fix the AF problems. No the DOCK does not help all that much. Even if you get it perfect it will still be inconsistent which is very well documented online.
It's nothing to do with Sigma's QC. If you're using older Rebel bodies, Sigma lenses focus pretty well. The real culprit is the size of Canon's AF points in their newer bodies. I had a 70D, and had to sell it off because the AF accuracy was inconsistent even with Canon lenses, be it in good or bad lighting.
Before that, I used a 650D, which has a more primitive 9-point AF system, and it exhibited not such problems, even with the Sigma 18-35 f1.8 Art wide open, and that lens has a reputation for exactly the same problem pointed out.
And as pointed out, these issues disappear when you switch to the 70D's live view mode, which is indeed excellent and far faster than the live view on my current Nikon D750 without sacrificing accuracy.
If you're using the 60D, it should be fine really. I've a friend who uses it with the Tamron 17-50 f2.8 non-VC and he didn't encounter any issues. Still, it always pays to test the lens before buying, as f1.8 is a difficult aperture to focus critically at. You might also want to consider the Sigma USB dock if you're planning to get more than one such lens, since it allows you to micro adjust the focusing offsets. My previous 85mm f1.8 was notoriously difficult to nail focus perfectly wide open.
I have sigma 35 for nikon before, it perform inconsistent when i got it, i sent it to sigma service center for adjustment then it work flawlessly.
You see, sigma art can be adjusted for short, medium and far distance, using adjustment device that they sold. I just refuse to buy one so i sent it to service center.
I like the art series but it's completely accurate to say their autofocus is weak. Lots of complaints. My 50mm was off right out of the gate, I adjusted it with the dock, but after a few months it's almost entirely unusable with a new problem. The 18-35 is good so far but slow and not great in low light. This is all using the 7DmkII so it's not for a lack of autofocus points etc.
The new Canon 35 might be attractive anyway even if there weren't autofocus issues... it's simply sharper than the sigma 35, albeit at a huge price increase.
@creedo, the problem isn't in the number of AF points, but that Canon's AF points are pretty big on the 7D( and 70D. I had the Sigma 17-50 f2.8 lens, and on my 650D, it focused pretty consistently. When I switched over to a 70D, I was getting a lot of soft focused shots with all my lenses, the worst being the Canon 85mm f1.8 which even at f4 wasn't getting it right.
I shoot semi-professionally, and getting anywhere from 1 in 10 to 8 in 10 shots that don't focus correctly was a serious enough problem that I eventually sold off my Canon gear and switched to a Nikon D750 instead, which is far better behaved than my 70D was.
Essentially, if you really want to see if the AF issue is in the lens or the body, switch it to live view. Once I did, all the AF issues I encountered with my 70D disappeared. Problem is, it wasn't practical to use live view all the time. I currently own the trio of Sigma Art lenses for the Sony E-mount system and all of them perform without any issue.
@Thermidor - "By getting it right" or "focus correctly" do you mean viewed at 100% as a technical exercise on a monitor or do you mean that they are out of focus in a standard sized print . Most out of focus shots would not be noticed in a real life application such as in wedding photography.
My percentage of "perfect" focused shots at 100% is low mainly due to technique(timing and camera movement) with Canon equipment. 100% can be a 5'x7' print. If you print that large, yes, your focus has to be perfect.
If I am shooting static subjects with the center focus point my success rate goes way up.
I would be surprised if Canon missed the issue that you mentioned. tI would mean that they are willing to accept a lot of negative comments from pros not using the latest or best equipment.
@MyReality, I get what you mean, and I'm not one for pixel peeping. There are shots which aren't critically focused that I have submitted work. Certainly when I use my f1.2 lens I don't expect critical sharpness.
However, I also have clients who will point out a shot being soft if it's not under a difficult situation. The last wedding portraits I shot had sequential photos that were obviously out of focus even when viewed at desktop resolution. And this was in daylight, with good contrast separating the subject and background.
Even at the best of times, there was on average a 20% miss rate to my shots with the 70D, which I had never experienced on the 650D. Once we start going into high ISO and wider apertures, it gets much worse. Ultimately, I switched to Nikon when Canon brushed off my issue and deemed it to be a result of ineptitude and using Sigma lenses.
Mind you, my complaint isn't an issue completely inherent to the 70D and 7D. I've had friends using it with no such issues. But apparently this was a problem with earlier models, and supposedly rectified quietly in later production models. But since there was huge disparity between what I got shooting with the OVF and using live view, it's definitely true at least my unit had a wonky AF module, which offsetting with the AF micro adjustment feature didn't help because it wasn't consistently front or back focusing, but in both directions with all my lenses. And basically, you know it's bad when the camera can't focus properly with a 70-200 f4 lens.
My 18-35 ART focuses beautifully with no finetune adjustment needed on both of my D7200 bodies. It didn't with either of my D7000 bodies, though. Perhaps there's something in the newer cameras that leads to more reliable autofocus? More cross type sensors, perhaps? Who knows...
On the other hand, my sister rented an 18-35 from lensrentals for her XSi Rebel and found it to be unusable because the AF hunted constantly all the time.
Shut up and take my money!
I hope this rumor is true.
Good:Optically it is very good.Sharp and very contrasty with a lot of fine details...It takes 67mm filter and just 685 gr...
Bad:SDM sucks and Pentax has a strong weakness when it is about AF.
If u search on google,u will see many complains about SDM failure.
Is sigma lying about the f1.8 - article says it performs like a f2.8 - one whole stop off?
Doesn't really make any difference what they compare it to. If it's a f1.8 lens it passes the amount of light expected for an f1.8 aperture no matter what it's mounted on. They specifically state light gathering ability is like a F2.8 aperture. Somebody has to be wrong. And if they want to try to confuse with this total amount of light required for the larger sensor, as you say - it is not a FF lens - it is aspc lens.
Surprised that sigma didn't say something about their lens being described as " a ~75-150mm F2.8 lens on full-frame."
An f/1.8 lens is an f/1.8 lens, whether its on an apple cellphone or a phase one medium back.
IF you want to compare lenses BETWEEN different formats, equivalence is a useful concept to use. But thats rarely needed to do. After all, if you own an APSC camera, why would you care about an equivalence to a format you are not using.
Bob L, At the same aperature, a larger format lens will gather more light than a smaller one. I think that's obvious. Take a look at the size of a cellphone lens, and compare it to a full frame lens. Obviously the big lense gathers more light.
The INTENSITY of the light on the sensor will be the same.
So if we fit this lens on a 4/3rd camera, will it be equivalent to f/4 lens? f/8 for 2/3rd? When will this end?
"I think it's an interesting piece of information that the amount of light coming through with f1.8 on a crop censor camera equals f2.8 on a full frame. I don't understand what some are complaining about."
What they are complaining about is the irrelevance of equivalence except in one respect (depth of field).
Any lens that is an F1.8 lens set to F1.8 on any format will result in the exact same shutter speed set to obtain correct exposure.
What "equivalencers" will tell you is this is wrong. As you have a smaller sensor if you are not FF then because the smaller sensor only gets a bit of the image circle a lens projects compared to FF it is somehow several stops worse. Smaller image circle = less light.
It is irrelevant as at low ISO you can't tell the difference between aps-c and FF sensors.
At low ISO, the primary reason to use f/1.8 is depth of field - which exactly matches equivalence theory for f/2.5 for the same framing and shooting distance for an FF sensor. And if you are shooting in low light 50mm, f/1.8, 1/100 @ ISO 3200 on APSC looks essentially identical to 75mm, f/2.5, 1/100 @ ISO 6400 on FF. Funny how that works out.
So the lens is always a 50-100mm F/1.8. It will produce images that look similar to a 75-150mm F/2.5 on FF.
I didn't read the article yet, but people get really confused on equivalences. You can't accurately describe the lens as a 75-150mm full frame equivalent, without saying it is f/2.8 equivalent. The lens is not a 75 to 150mm lens (we know that) and it is not f/2.8. It is equivalent to using a 75-150mm f/2.8 lens on full frame, but it is still a 50-100mm f/1.8. If you shot a full frame image at 75mm f/2.8 ISO 250 1/100 you would shoot an APS-C image at 50mm f/1.8 ISO 100 1/100 at the same MP resolution and they would look near identical. Try it sometime. They would have the same image noise, the same motion blur, the same depth of field, and the same framing. Nothing would distinguish these images (not looking at MTF right now). The benefit to full frame is it allows added flexibility, shoot at same ISO for higher image quality but longer shutter speed, or higher ISO for fast shutter speed and shallower depth of field.
@viking79, well expressed explanation. I'll add that equivalence is useful when considering diffraction at high aperatures as well. All else being equal, an apsc lens at f/8 will exhibit the same diffraction as a FF lens at f/11.
@fmian, Exactly right. On your light meter, this f/1.8 lens is an f/1.8 lens and always will be an f/1.8 lens.
"Total light gathering capability" is not even a photographic concept and just serves to confuse readers. The relevant number for light gathering is f/1.8. Period. A light meter doesn't care about sensor size.
I can't help noticing how DP Review has been misusing terms and concepts in their articles lately.
This is the 3rd one I've seen in the last week or so. For a website with such a large readership... how many people don't do their own research and end up believing in the wrong information... and then passing it on to someone else?
I actually had a diploma photography student try to explain to me how 3200 ISO on one camera will produce exposure like 800 ISO on the previous model.
I thought 'Nice one buddy, you just broke a fundamental rule of photography that's been in place for 150 years..'
and promptly lost all respect for him... and whomever was teaching him...
It may totally make sense if you're a physicist or engineer. If you're photographer, it's a number you will never need and a calculation you will never make. When photographers measure light, they use aperture (or T-stops in cinema) or EV, but never "total light gathering". Surface area does not come into it. It just creates confusion like you see at the top, where Bob A L asks whether Sigma is lying about f/1.8. (They are not lying.)
I'm wondering in what circumstance this 'total light gathering' concept needs to be considered.
I mean... not every lens made for APSc has it's image circle strictly bound to APSc. Many APSc lenses work with minimal vignetting on FF.
So I only see the comparison as being completely arbitrary.
I think everyone on this thread understands the value of "equivalence" for field of view and depth of field. An APSC 100mm lens shot at f/1.8 has the same field of view and the same depth of field as FF 150mm lens shot at f/2.8.
The only source of confusion is "total light gathering". Feel free to ignore it if you don't like it. Why do some people care? It's a simple way to equate the average shot noise over the full frame when you take photos in low light. Here is an example
It is very loose. It's just a better starting point than assuming its all the same. The f/1.8 on my iphone doesn't give my phone the same low light capability as f/1.8 on my D4s. Nor is the f/2 on my fuji the same as my f/2 on my a7r2.
And besides, dpr DOES give you the true aperture. They would give the equivalent anyway because you DO care about dof. All they are doing is adding 3 words: "total light gathering". Take those words for just what they are.
A lens is a lens. A sensor is a sensor. No point trying to make some general comparative standard that factors in both and calls it the 'same' while forgetting to mention all the scenarios where the comparison is not the same.
Much easier to say "this X lens is similar in usage to what a FF user would get with Y lens" when talking about lenses.
And, "this new XX sensor has low light noise performance similar to YY older sensor"
'similar' --- everyone understands what that word means and it doesn't infer an absolute like 'same'.
While it is absolutely, positively, true that equivalent aperature is the correct way to measure "total light gathering", its totally up to the user to decide how, or even if, they care. Some find it useful, others don't.
Personally, I find it useful because I have several cameras with different sensor sizes. If I didn't, I probably wouldn't find it useful.
Re: "it's a good concept to understand because we are not all using the same sized sensor/film nowadays." When did people all use the same sized sensor/film? Not in the film era. In the 1970's, I could buy film from 8x11mm to 8x10 inches (at least), not to mention various Polaroid sizes.
In photography, an aperture (f-stop) gives the same exposure across all formats.
This f1.8 zoom is heavy and expensive. With modern sensors allowing higher and higher ISO, the only reason left to make zooms f 1.4 and 1.8 is to bring out the subject from the background..... for some photographers that might be a good enough reason to spend more money and carry more weight... for others (including me) f 2.8 would be good enough....
ideal for the new canon D80, guaranteed to have the same ol' crappy sensor.
No agenda here, canon is a train wreck I can't stop watching. ;-)
Troll ... some people are trying to discuss here, you could take your iphone and try to get a selfy in the middle of the street kissing a car...
Trolls like photomedium sadly ruining almost every photography forum out there...
It appears mildly poking fun of canon is like kryptonite to the fanboys. They break down and start twitching, issue death wishes, and start the name calling. ;-)
As Battersea observed, "This forum is so toxic". If anyone wonders why, just review photomedium's posts above:
- using a story about one company's lens to call another company's upcoming sensor "crappy" before it's even on the market;
- calling a company a "train wreck" for no apparent reason and totally unrelated to this story;
- claiming to have "no agenda" with such comments, an undisguised lie;
- attempting to justify outright bashing as "mildly poking fun";
- describing people who call out his shameful behavior as twitching "fanboys" — even while complaining about "name calling".
It's a sadly perfect display of why forum rules exist, including rule 6 about "bashing" and "trolling" and rule 8 about staying "on topic".
It's a really great lens for sports.
Match it to a D500 and you get the tool for the job!
Indoor sports photographers will be delighted!
I just bought the Nikkor 70.200 f2.8 VR2, damn...
If you believe the Sigma will be able to match the Nikkor for AF speed and accuracy you are beyond optimistic.
I was thinking about using it for indoor basketball shooting. I was originally waiting to see if Sigma would introduce an 85 1.4 but the 50-100 might just might take its place.
@ halfwaythere:
Af speed, we all don't know... we'll see.
Accuracy, I guess it entirely depends on the camera AF module, isn't it?
accuracy is equal when calibrated. speed can differ and that depends of the speed of the motor they put inside the lens.
I'm afraid not. Shooting a Sigma side by side with a native lens its easy to spot the difference.
Enough for indoor sports.
I don't think many who question the practicality of this lens have really used the 50-150(135) lenses in the field. I have, both Sigma's major versions, and I would gladly give up the last 50mm in exchange for 4/3 stop. In practice, I often prefer to use the 85/1.G @f/2.2-2.5 and crop instead of dragging the 50-150 OS. But that's not a very good solution, and I would like to be able to go wider and faster.
Because of cropping, the reach isn't that much of a problem with a well performing lens and moderate ISO settings.
With this lens, the new Tokina 14-20/2 and the 18-35A, we have a fairly complete set of primes for crop. On FF, that would be 21, 24, 28, 35, 50, 60, 85, 105, 135 and 150mm. Of course that set gives a lot more than the three bags of primes (including the use on crop bodies), but it is a toolkit.
Seems like a great lens which I'll never buy. It also weighs the same as a 70-200mm on FF. I almost bought the 70-200mm, but fortunately, I rented it first. I ended up with a much more plausible 85mm f/14. It gives same or better low-light and DOF up to 190mm, but obviously a little bit less resolution towards the upper end. However, it is small and practical. I salute the innovation, but unlike the fast wide angle zooms Sigma has made, this isn't a lens I'll particularly drool over.
Especially with the plummeting price of full frame.
Maybe if it's very cheap, I'll consider it. But I think Sigma would be selling itself short if it did that.
I'm curious about the lack of Sigma super-fast primes. They're really pushing bounds with zooms. Seems like they ought to make high-quality reasonably-priced f/1-ish primes as well.
"I'm curious about the lack of Sigma super-fast primes. They're really pushing bounds with zooms. Seems like they ought to make high-quality reasonably-priced f/1-ish primes as well."
You mean like the sigma art series primes that are getting rave reviews?
@alphoid in the last several years sigma has released 50 , 35, 24 and 20mm 1.4 primes. So they are certainly doing that as well
Unless by f/1ish you meant literally f/1? If that's the case it will never happen from sigma - as far as I know you can't make an f/1 autofocus lens for F mount because of the diameter, and sigma isn't in the business of making canon only lenses and chopping their market in half.
Conventional fast primes are f/1.4-f/1.8. Everyone makes them.
Super-fast primes are the f/0.95 ones you see from little niche companies like Voigtlander, Mitakon, Noktor, and other oddballs, as well as one-offs of f/0.7 or f/0.75 for niche applications like aerospace or high-end video work. As niche products, they lack mass market economics and features like autofocus.
Right now, Sigma seems to be pushing the bounds on, well, practically everything. Their lenses outclass the competition on base specs, optical quality, and price, all at the same time. It'd be nice to see an ultrasfast lens like that which was a bit more mass-market. Even if it was only f/1 or f/1.2.
If they skipped F-mount, it would still sell like crazy. Heck, if they did just mirrorless for the shorter flange distance, I suspect they'd still have brisk sales.
Alphoid - 0.95 primes are super specialized - even more so than the already specialized "normal" primes (f/1.4-f/1.8). With an f/1.4 prime high iso isn't really a concern - so any faster really doesn't matter. So, other than super shallow DOF - not really a point to faster primes.
f/0.95 primes don't give super-narrow depth-of-field at wide angle. In addition, at longer focal lengths, the low-light control of even f/1.4 becomes a concern unless you're on a tripod (although the DoF might be too narrow).
Most of my friends, myself included, mostly shoot with primes. If a prime is available that's faster, it's pretty much a no-brainer choice. Pushing the bounds of performance always makes sense. What would you see as the downside?
The perfect companion for D7200 & D500, or any other DX Level DSLR.
Besides that, it's "only" a 2-times Zoom, so IQ would be way good, also fast glass, too. ;) (some of you might remember the old 24-48, or 28-50mm Zoom lenses, not from sigma, though).
Great lens!
Don't get the weight criticism. Great glass is heavy take it or leave it.
Otherwise just stick to your 3.5-5.6 kit lens.
There's no advantage to using this compared to a 70-200/2.8 on a full frame body. Which are stabilized and go to 200mm.
I guess Sigma did research and majority of people are still shooting on crop, believe it or not. I would not spend $1500 on a crop only lens like this.......but both Olympus and Fuji (and Panasonic) have lenses in that price range, and Olympus and Panasonic are even smaller sensor camera manufacturers, and people buy these lenses. So I suppose this will sell as well
The ideal Sigma client when he is on vacation:
This is an awesome lens for apsc users. But, this is even heavier than the new Sony 70 200 2.8 G Master Lens for full frame! Did they make this out of Lead or what?
I just wonder its performance on a FF...despite not being compatible with FF cameras,some lenses perform good enough on a FF camera.
I would think you could use a FF tele converter. That would expand the image circle to fill the FF.
Would this be available on E-mount?
Based on what I've read, seems like no?
Nope. Basically any lens that is available for DSLRs will be unavailable for E mount as the two are not compatible. Both need different designs. So third party E mount lenses like the Sigma 19mm f2.8, 30mm f2.8 etc are for mirrorless systems only while DSLR 3rd party lenses like Sigma 20mm f1.4 etc cannot be directly 'ported' if you will onto mirrorless cameras.
That said thanks to adapters you can easily use DSLR lenses on mirrorless cameras.
They could have just made a version with a longer barrel to accommodate the difference in flange distance. The adapter is ok, but performance would vary, perhaps to a significant degree. Also, there hasn't been any weather sealed adapter to my knowledge (not that this lens is necessarily sealed)
No mirrorless lenses use different motors so its not as simple as you make it sound. You can do that with MF lenses but not so easy with AF lenses.
Surely nice as idea and surely beautiful technically... However, 93x170 mm and 1.5 kg is a lot. If I would ever resolve carrying such a mass (I rarely use my lenses at home and I don't do studio work), I would opt for a 70-200 2.8 then. 200 mm at 2.8 has the same DOF than 100 at 1.8 at equal framing (portrait seem the main point here)... and it is FF in case I would decide to change. Actually, on such a big lens being DX is a minus....
When a 50-200 f2.8 or f3.5 OS lens for dx?
Say that, if the reviews will show up it is good AND I would have infinite money, I would likely buy it 😀
You are right. However, that is a rather curious lens. It seems it was produced using the same casing of the 70-200 f/2.8 full frame lens. In fact it is just marginally lighter and identical in size to its bigger brother. The following review discusses the issue.
My point is that there should be plenty of room between the 200 g and plastic made 55-200 f/4-5.6 VR DX and the 4 times heavier 70-200 f/4 full frame stabilized ones (Nikon and tokina). It is also the reason why I would be happy with a f/3.5 lens. Something well made (e.g., good manual focusing capabilities) at about 400-500 g should be possible to make.
I actually own this lens and I love it for exactly this reason. Using a "bigger than usual" case means one constraint less and more room for better optical quality. The sharpness is superior to the 70-200 throughout the whole range and vignetting is better by 2/3-1 stop.
I agree. I also love my Sigma 50-150mm f2.8. Comparing it to this new lens (if it turns out to be real) it is cheaper and lighter. F2.8 is enough for me, plus I have been able to obtain sharp, beautiful images from it so I'm really satisfied, it is a joy to use - I won't get this new lens just because of the f1.8 ART - which to me is the only selling point.
Perfect solution for my kit bag. It would replace my 50,85 and 105 . No more switching during shooting.
I have good news and bad news.
Good news - There is a NEW Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens coming out for Sony E mount !!!!! :D :D :D
Confirmed news so wait three days till Feb 23rd for the official announcement
Bad news - Its a crop sensor lens for APS-C users only. :(
95cm mfd..
I'm already unhappy with the 60cm dictated by some 50mm lenses..
Why not go the oldschool way of Zeiss Jena, where 35cm was the mfd?
At 1'500 USD and 1,5kg I'd probably get:
Canon 50/1.8 STM
Canon 85/1.8 USM
Canon 100mm f/2.8L IS USM macro
they add up to about the same weight and price and I could use them on a full frame, or leave at home whichever lens I don't need right now.
The 100mm f/2 USM would be an option too, but I really don't see a need for that focal length other than macro on APS-C.
Great so you are comparing 3 primes to the convenience of a zoom ?
Fine ill rather use my f2 Iphone instead and use my feet for zooming. A bit cheaper than this lens too.
the convenience of a 2x zoom. I already feel much more comfortable.
besides, zooming with your feet is a myth..
The lens on your phone will always be a wide angle lens and upon going closer to your subject, you'll always end up with perspective distortion versus a short tele lens.
I was being difficult merely to counter your argument of using two prime lenses to using a zoom. What about 70mm f1.8 ? Or 90mm f1.8 ? The differences with a telephoto lens can make a big difference indoors.
So if 85mm is too tele and 50mm is just too wide what are you going to do ?
I've never been in such a situation..
But I could always crop a 70mm angle of view from my 50mm image and call it a day.
So it would be an easy win for the 50-100/1.8...
Because when you're using FF glasses on APS-C cameras, you're actually dividing by 1,6 times the sharpness of the lens... As the 50-100 is designed for crop cameras only, it will be theorically (based on previous Art series lenses optical performance) way better than any 70-200/2.8 or short tele prime made for FF.
That's why the 18-35 is so much better than any other FF lens on APS-C
Nevertheless the lack of OSS or IS is a bit of a deception especially with that large form factor.
You don't seem to get it. This lens is all about performance with some amount of convenience. As it is it will be better than either the 50mm f1.8 or 85mm f1.8 lenses which are pretty old optical designs.
For those who need to shoot portraits quickly this is a very good lens. This is a unique lens not having any direct competition
It's a very heavy, very expensive lens..
The 50/1.8 STM has been released barely a year ago and performs stellar at the price it sells for.
The 85/1.8 might not be the newest lens, but depending on how overcorrected the Sigma is, it might still offer better boke.
Hell, I bought a 85/1.2L II slightly used for several hundred less than the Sigma will sell for.. (talking about portraits)
And it's a LOT less heavy too.
Did I mention that all my lenses were full frame lenses too?
Damn.. You people only read Sony news, don't you?
Canon released a new Canon 50mm f/1.8 with STM focus and great optical performance.
And yes, the 85/1.8 is 25 years old. It's still a great portrait lens which the Sigma night not be depending on the amount of correction they introduce (onion rings, etc)
Do you know how to read? Very mediocre: http://www.imaging-resource.com/lenses/canon/ef-50mm-f1.8-stm/review/
Fast af, good handling of CA, extraordinarily sharp stopped down only 1 stop, good sharpness wide open, even in the APS-C corners..
Hell, it's 15 times cheaper than the SIGMA joke we're talking about here..
I sure hope the Sigma will be better wide open, but its still 7 times as heavy and huge and probably AF won't be reliable anyways on Canon..
Yes this rumor is now everywhere, but one must question the logic of such lens , I can see some use for it. BUT ... seriously how many would be in absolute need for an f/2.0 zoom in this focal range when more rational choice like getting a fast fix focal that sits well with ones specific need , 50mm, 85mm, 100mm lens are not hard to get and even at f/2.0 they are not that expensive and certainly far more portable.
One have to really have to had the zoom for loving this , nice piece of engineering though ..
Heavier lenses is a trend for Sigma,
Now 1490g for crop sensor to get more scores in DXomark rating.
+ Canon or Nikon 600g = 2090g
Hard to imagine that people interested in photography can take with them on vacation this behemoth.
Agreed with previous authors, pros don't use crop senser.
Haha what??
There are tons of pros who use both APS-C and m43 for their work.
Nice pro lens for portraiture however pros dont use crop sensor for portraiture. If it was compatible with full frames, it would sell a lot to pros.
Under the same argument, their 18-35 would have no market.
As an amateur, I really appreciate the "FF-like" images I can get out of my 7Dii at WA to normal equivalent focal lengths. If the price is right, this could do the same for me at portrait focal lengths.
Foveon is essentially dead.
the tech was cool when it hit the market... but honestly, try any of the current (or less current) FF Cameras with higher resolutions...
Foveon, yeah... no thanks.
Nikon Dd7200 has a very good color rendering value which is good for portraiture however the thing with full frames is shallow DOF, therefore if you are pro you will chose fullframe for portraiture even though crop sensors become very capable. I am not a pro, I cant afford this lens, even if I could I would not buy it bec it is heavy. I can take fantastic portraits with Nikon 40 mm macro, and it is almost weightless.
yea my bad for any spelling mistakes and the solid typo @Muqdad.
@electrophoto As for foveon is dead I don't think so (personal opinion) I was eyeing up the a7rII but I'm really not a fan of Bayer rendering anymore and rather enjoy what the sigma's do especially the DP's with the leafshutter lens when I'm using strobes outside.
I have a k3 which I feel the IQ is inferior to my Merrill/quattro sensors (dynamic range and high iso is ofc better in the pentax) and have used and edited files from a canon 5dmarkII (and III), d800, d750 and others but I personally enjoy the Foveon rending more than Bayer :)
@HBowman now that's rude, I wasn't giving advice but merely an opinion and I personally would enjoy this lens on a Foveon camera because I enjoy Foveon images... does using a Foveon camera imply that I don't know how to use lights, compose a shot or set exposure values? I would be interested in knowing why you feel I should practice more.
Please give up a little on max aperture then make it lighter. Like 50-100/2 with lesser than 1000g.
Folks are claiming the focal lenght is impractical. The same was said about the 24-35mm.
Well, I have the 24-35mm & I find using this lens quite a bit.
So to me, I am very interested in another impractical lens from Sigma !!!
Well, not really. The 24-35 is FF, and it is a very useful range. On APS-C that would have to be 16-24 and this is where I take most of my pics with the 16-85 lens. So a 16-24 1.8 DC lens would be, actually, very interesting (the 18-35 is such, but the 2 extra mm at the short side means a lot, at least to me).
1490g, haha that would be a sight to see attached to an A6000.
Agreed, but it will be very much lighter package than mounted on a nikon d500, canon 80d, etc. The size of the camera you attach doesn't matter - at least not for me, only the end-result. And... Sony lineup is lacking, and sigm art zooms offer very good IQ at a more reasonable price. If you've used their 18-35 1.8 then you know what I mean
IMO the offset between the bodies is more than made up for by the comfort of the operation. I mean lets compare the D500 vs A6300. That's a total of 2350g for Nikon, vs 1894 for the Sony. I would much rather carry an extra 20% or so weight than have to hold what is still nearly 2000g with a tiny little camera grip.
If the lens was 100g you might have a point, in this case your weight excuse is pointless. Have you ever wondered why pretty much all of the ML systems have all but ignored super long lenses? Go read about the new Sony 85mm f1.4, people are crucifying it for it's weight.
This is a GREAT portrait lens! 75-150 1.8! Holy crap!
It's more like a 75-150 F2.5 if you take DOF into consideration.
Yah...I really don't care about dof games....still faster vs comparable zooms. For apsc photographers. It's a great 50-100 portrait lens. It's an entire stop faster vs using a FF 70-200 on apsc. No other way to look at it.

Location, location, location? Recent industry trends are suggesting that one of the most common pieces of advice for property investors is wrong.
Blogger: Andrew Staehr, Archers The Strata Professionals
Instead of location as the key selling point, modern day apartment dwellers are looking for resort-style facilities to suit their fast-paced lifestyles and needs – features like green walls, bamboo chairs, community gardens and infinity pools.
With tech-savvy retirees, professional up-and-comers and families increasingly choosing apartment living over suburbia, location is no longer enough.
Elements of building design that were once considered an extravagance are now must-have staples of apartment living, attracting an ever-increasing market of socially- and environmentally-conscious consumers.
Consequently, developers are stepping up their game, devising innovative ways to cater for strata residents. This has seen buildings push the boundaries of traditional design, with timber styles and natural fibres rapidly replacing concrete and steel.
In many strata properties, roof top recreation areas now boast infinity pools, wood-fired pizza ovens, garden terraces and city sky viewing platforms. This external space acts as an extension of the apartment living space and provides an opportunity for communities to develop and interact, while adding value to the property.
Sustainable living is also high on the agenda, with green initiatives like solar power and community gardens delivering an increased return on investment, by attracting more tenants and reducing operating costs.
Apartment-style living has changed dramatically over the past 10 years. For smart property investors aiming to tap into the rental market now, location should not be considered the beginning, middle and end of their investment decisions.

Heimweh nach drüben Trailer (2007)
This TV movie focuses on an average East German citizen, who accidentally becomes a Cold War victim. Shortly before his wedding day, East German Stephan Busemann goes to West Germany to attend his brother Hubert's fiftieth birthday. At the same time, his son Martin and his daughter-in-law Bettina flee their communist home country in a balloon, what Stephan didn't know. As the East Germans believe he helped them to escape, he isn't allowed to return, so Martin writes a letter to the country's leader Erich Honecker. However, now the West Germans think that Stephan is a spy.

Swimmers continue to ignore warnings as two more die in lakes
BODIES of a teenage boy and a man in his 40s have been pulled from lakes in Norfolk, adding to the death toll of people dying in open water since the heatwave began.
At least ten people have now died in similar circumstances as the hot weather encourages people to cool off.
The latest causalities drowned in separate lakes at Bawsey Pits quarry near King's Lynn in Norfolk yesterday, but that has not deterred swimmers from taking a dip in the lakes today.
The lakes are said to be deep in places and thick with undergrowth which makes swimming dangerous.
There were even reports that people were entering the water as we were attempting the recovery yesterday evening, so that's how on occasions people ignore the warning.
Assistant Chief Constable Nick Dean said: "The tragic discoveries of both the teenager and the man came after an extensive search by the emergency services and volunteers.
"On behalf of everyone involved I would again like to offer my condolences and deepest sympathies to the families of those who have sadly lost their lives.
"We can only presume that they went into the water to cool down on what was a very hot day. We would urge caution whenever swimming in unknown open waterways.
"There are signs up warning of the danger of swimming and our message is that people must take heed of what happened yesterday.
"The water is very deep, there is a lot of undergrowth and underlying currents, all of which could have contributed to this tragedy.
"There were even reports that people were entering the water as we were attempting the recovery yesterday evening, so that's how on occasions people ignore the warning."
On Monday the bodies of two other swimmers, a man of 52 and a second aged 24, were found in neighbouring reservoirs in the Brecon Beacons in South Wales.
The day before Nathan Lane, 28, disappeared after bravely diving into the Thames at Gravesend, Kent, to save a 12-year-old girl who was safely rescued by others.
Last Friday John Shailes, 27, drowned as he took a late night swim after drinking with friends in Swindon, Wilts.
And last week two swimmers drowned in separate incidents in the same quarry at Malvern, Worcs.
The body of a man in his 20s was pulled from the waters last Friday evening, six days after 17 year-old Russell O'Neill, from Worcester, died in the same water.
The body of another man was also recovered last Friday from the River Severn in Bridgnorth, Shropshire.
Schoolgirl Hollie Jamie-Lee McClymont, 14, drowned when she went swimming in the sea at Barry Island, South Wales on Sunday July 7.
The growing death list yesterday prompted a warning from the Royal Lifesaving Society.
Chief Executive Di Standley said: "Any drowning is a tragedy but the number of people who have lost their life this month is not only extremely sad but extremely worrying.
"Do not be tempted to cool off in open water, unless it is a supervised area intended for swimming, or an organised event.
"We want people to enjoy water, but safely and sensibly - using their common sense and listening to advice.
"We sincerely hope that this is the last drowning tragedy to take place this summer. Please don't become a statistic."

Think about what career is best suited for you, and where you want to study. Request more information now.
Learn about Howard Payne University grade scale, and registering for elective lectures and seminars. As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. Consult with an academic advisor, to ensure that your chosen classes constitute a full-time course load, and fulfills major requirements. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Howard Payne University major requirement information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Howard Payne University.
To keep your GPA as high as possible, study the schedule of classes carefully, and note the add/drop deadlines, as well as the requirements for changing a grade. If you get an incomplete, or worse a low grade, you can still retake the class, as some schools allow you to average the two grades on your final transcript. Challenge yourself by taking some courses outside your major to fulfill breadth requirements.
By purchasing lecture notes from a reputable source such as the student union, you can save time by not taking notes in class, and concentrate on paying better attention. You also can audit courses that you're interested in, but would prefer to skip exams and just listen in. Beyond consideration for Howard Payne University grade scale, you may think about Willamette University online undergraduate classes for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

History Society Annual Lecture
On Friday 4 March the annual History Society Lecture took place at school. Dr. Andrew Heath from Sheffield University presented an American themed lecture, which particularly focused on conspiracy theories and imperial plots in post-independence America.
The lecture was hugely interesting with varied topics raised spanning the assassination of John F. Kennedy's to the exploits of the mafia in Chicago. The audience had many questions and those students present quizzed Dr. Heath at the end of his presentation.
Much thanks to Dr Heath for giving up his time to speak to our history students. Also, all thanks to our Head of History Mr. Mike Clarke for organising this most valuable lecture.

A Barrel of Laughs
From BG FFXI Wiki
- Examine the Mischief Marker at (J-11) in Western Adoulin for a cutscene. You will need to wait until the day changes after completing the previous quest.
- To the left of the Mischief Marker is a door marked (Door: Depository), examine it for a cutscene.
- Travel to Rala Waterways (M-6) from Eastern Adoulin (F-7) (Peacekeepers Warp) and examine the door behind Yeggha Dolashi to enter a battlefield.
- Trusts may be used in the fight.
- Only the mannequin (Pupadi Dollmohr) need be defeated to clear the battlefield.
- The mannequin only has about 55,000 HP. However, the taru duo are also frail.
- If either of the NPC tarus are defeated, you will fail.
- If you fail, head to the Waterfront in Western Adoulin and click the Sauce Barrels (found on end of pier next to Jorin ) for a cutscene demanding a specific food item from one of the vendors in town.
- Return to the Sauce Barrels with the demanded food item and trade it to them.
- Upon giving them the demanded food, you may return to the arena in Rala Waterways and retry the battlefield.
- Upon successfully clearing the battlefield, head to the Door: Svenja's Manor in Western Adoulin (I-8) (COU Warp) and examine it for a cutscene.
- Travel to Sih Gates with a sickle, and harvest a Guffawshroom (Key Item).
- Take Ceizak Battlegrounds Bivouac #3, and head south to the zone.
- In order for the KI to be harvested, one must use the emote /laugh targeting the harvesting point shortly before trading the sickle to it.
- Next click on the door to the Hospital at (I-9) in Western Adoulin for a cutscene.
- Note that if you are at a certain point on the quest Flowers for Svenja, the doctor will be unavailable and you cannot progress in A Barrel of Laughs. You will simply receive the message "The door is firmly closed". **If this happens, you must progress further in Flowers for Svenja in order to proceed.
- Return to the Mischief Marker at for a cutscene.
- Talk to Peladi Shalmohr at the Mummers' Coalition in Western Adoulin to choose your reward.
- If you wish to have a different earring, have 10,000 Bayld accumulated and trade her the earring you have already.
- You may only do this once per real life week.
- If you wish to have a different earring, have 10,000 Bayld accumulated and trade her the earring you have already.

Michael over at a Nadder indirectly tagged me with this meme. The meme concept has been a pretty popular thing with bloggers recently, getting more popular all the time. For those that have no idea what a meme is, here's a definiton for you:
a cultural unit (an idea or value or pattern of behavior) that is passed from one person to another by non-genetic means (as by imitation); "memes are the cultural counterpart of genes"
Or, to put it another way, meme is a fancy word for "stupid viral idea propogated deliberately by bored bloggers and their ilk". But some of them are quite entertaining. Michael didn't even bother to tag people directly, just pointing out to anyone with a blog to consider themselves tagged once they'd read his post. How lazy is that?
Anyway, this particular meme is an old one, but it's also quite a good one. And it's book/story related, so I thought I'd include it here on The Word. It goes like this:
1. Pick up the nearest book;
2. Go to page 123;
3. Post sentences 6 to 8;
4. Tag 5 others.
Obviously, point 4 is the viral aspect of these things, but at least it doesn't promise that my wildest dreams will come true if I do tag others or that I'll die a horrible venereal disease related death if I don't. As this particular meme is so old, I'm not going to bother tagging anyone, but you can always have a go yourself if you're interested, and post your results if you have a blog to post them on. And yes, that approach does make me even lazier than Michael.
So, what are sentences 6 to 8 on page 123 of the nearest book to me? Well, the nearest book was The Doll's House, which is volume two of the Sandman graphic novel by Neil Gaiman, that I'm reading again. You know what? These Sandman stories are still bloody brilliant. Neil is going to be in Sydney tonight and I'm going to see him at a Q & A session in the city. I think I'll get him to sign volume one of the Sandman books if the chance presents itself.
But I digress. Page 123 of The Doll's House only had one panel with dialogue and two lines of it, so there was no sentence 6 to 8. Trust me to find a way to upset this meme. So I reached for the next nearest book.
That turned out to be We Can Remember It For You Wholesale by Philip K Dick. This book is a collection of short stories by Dick, being "Volume Five of The Collected Stories".
Page 123 of this volume occurs during a story called Your Appointment Will Be Yesterday, a truly bizarre tale of time. The story talks of an invention that created two times, Hobart Time and Standard Time, with half the world running forwards on Standard Time and half running backwards on Hobart Time (no jokes about Hobart and going backwards in time, please.) It's a story that is really hard to get your head around, as with many of Dick's yarns, but it's a brilliant piece with some truly inspired ideas in it. Well worth a read. Here are lines 6 to 8 of page 123:
"Your Mightiness, this man is the inventor of the swabble."
"What's that?" The boy glanced from one of them to the other, scowling with suspicion.
What's the swabble? You'll have to read Your Appointment Will Be Yesterday to find out.

In his essay 'resuscitation 'On a Certain Blindness in Human Beings'" href="http://www.des.emory.edu/mfp/jcertain.html" target="_blank">On a Certain Blindness in Human Beings' the American thinker William James relates a trip across North Carolina in which he passed a series of valleys whose forests settlers had torn down in order to make room for simple log cabins and a patch of land to grow corn on. James was horrified:
"The forest had been destroyed; and what had 'improved' it out of existence was hideous, here a sort of ulcer, psychotherapist without a single element of artificial grace to make up for the loss of Nature's beauty."
Yet a brief yet revelatory conversation with his driver caused him to see the valleys as the squatters saw them, and caused his attitude to be reversed:
"Because to me the clearings spoke of naught but denudation, I thought that to those whose sturdy arms and obedient axes had made them they could tell no other story. But, when they looked on the hideous stumps, what they thought of was personal victory… The clearing, which to me was a mere ugly picture on the retina, was to them a symbol redolent with moral memories and sang a very pæan of duty, struggle, and success."
We each have our blindnesses to what is valued by others. This post is about a kind of blindness that may be extremely common amongst urban planners and about why very predictable cultural changes mean that blindness has to be overcome.

Robert Oatley Sauvignon Blanc 2012
Winemaker Notes
Critical AcclaimAll Vintages
Wherever he makes wine, Bob Oatley's underlying philosophy is to find the right vineyard with the right soil and match it to the right variety.
With the guidance of winemaker, Larry Cherubino, Robert Oatley Vineyards shares the expression of regions, such as Margaret River, McLaren Vale, Yarra Valley, Great Southern and Central Ranges.
Best known for lusciously sweet dessert wines but home to many distinctive dry whites and reds, Hungary is an exciting country at the crossroads of tradition and innovation. Mostly flat with a continental climate, Hungary is almost perfectly bisected by the Danube River (known here as the Duna), and contains Central Europe's largest lake, Balaton. Soil types vary throughout the country but some of the best vines, particularly in Tokaji, are planted on mineral-rich volcanic soil.
Tokaji, Hungary's most famous wine region, is home to the venerated botrytized sweet wine of the same name, produced from a blend of Furmint and Hárslevelű. Dry and semi-dry wines are also make in Tokaji, using the same varieties. Other native white varieties include the relatively aromatic and floral, Irsai Olivér, Cserszegi Fűszeres and Királyleányka, as well as the distinctively smoky and savory, Juhfark. Common red varieties include velvety, Pinot Noir-like Kadarka and juicy, easy-drinking Kékfrankos (known elsewhere as Blaufränkisch).

Our Background
Founded in 2009, Blue Ocean Portfolios is a fee only SEC Registered Investment Advisor. Unlike the vast majority of other so-called wealth or retirement advisors, Blue Ocean Portfolios does not sell investments or annuity contracts. Any time an investment advisor gets paid a commission or participates in revenue sharing or trail commissions, it creates a conflict of interest with their clients. By eliminating these conflicts, our clients have better odds for favorable outcomes.
The truth is that only new information will change the value of a stock, bond, commodity or real estate investment. By definition, new information cannot be anticipated. If it could, it wouldn't be new. Once investors accept this fact, investing becomes much easier and will enable them to focus on their allocation not the name of the fund or the particular fund manager. Investing is all about allocation, not picking the hot stock, fund or manager. Wealth management is about managing risk, not chasing outcomes.
Blue Ocean Portfolios intelligently designs and implements an appropriate allocation policy based on each client's individual situation. We are advocates of using low cost index funds because there is no evidence or logic to support the idea that anyone can persistently pick winning stocks or winning managers. In fact, when it comes to investing, the only thing one can predict are the fees that will be incurred. Outcomes will always be random and unpredictable.

Russia and three of Afghanistan's neighbors - India, Iran and Tajikistan - have ruled out any role for the Taleban in a future Afghan government.
The Indian and Russian views were contained in a joint statement issued after a two-day meeting in New Delhi of a joint working group.
The statement says the Taleban movement is based on what it called "extremist and violent ideologies" that the statement says would pose a substantial danger to the stability of any broad-based multi-ethnic government.
In Dushanbe today (Friday) visiting Iranian Foreign Minister Kamal Kharazi agreed with Tajikistan's President (Emomali Rakhmonov) that the Taleban has no place in any future government of Afghanistan.
During talks in Islamabad earlier this week, U-S Secretary of State Colin Powell suggested that moderate elements in the Taleban might be incorporated into a future Afghan government.
All four of the countries have been strong critics of the Taleban.

Cannot even boot from Win7 DVD after BSOD
Hi everyone,
I've been struggling with this problem for two days, and I haven't found a solution so far...
So, two days ago my PC got a BSOD, without any prelude. (It pointed to usbohci.sys.) I restarted, then chose the repair option. It started loading files, then hung on the 'Starting Windows' screen. Couple more attempts, same outcome. Safe mode loadup stops at classpnp.sys.
Then I booted it from Hiren's Boot Disc, and (after 3-4 BSODs) managed to load the mini XP. I could save some of my data at least...
Restart again, trying to boot from Win7 Dvd. Nada... Hangs on "Starting Windows' again. Once it started somehow, I chose startup repair. It scanned for about half an hour, and came up with "Sorry, I'm unable to repair..." Another reset. Now Windows 7 booted up somehow! The desktop came up, seemed to go ok for about an hour. Then another BSOD. Memory dump something...
Since then it can't boot again. Same symptoms as above. Plus sometimes it shows another BSOD, with a bad pool header message. I hope I didn't miss to mention anything.
I've updated the BIOS, unplugged all unnecessary USB devices...
Pls help!

The New Years parties are done, the Christmas tree is coming down and the menorah is put away. It's time to get back to school, back to work and return to reality. I often find that with the return to normalcy, the post holiday blues can pop up as well.
In the past, when I came home from a vacation or trip, I would find myself moody and sad. When I was still an associate, returning home or back to work after a vacation was really difficult for me. Because I didn't enjoy my work, I would dread going back and it would put me in a funk for days. Now that I really enjoy my job and what I do every day, returning from vacation has become a lot easier (thank goodness).
Whether or not you love your job, work from home or are just getting back to reality after some time away, there are some things you can do before you leave to make coming home easier, less stressful and to keep the post holiday blues at bay.
6 Tips on How to Beat the Post Holiday Blues
Prepare Yourself Before you Leave
I like to set myself up at work before I go away. I'll spend time going through my to do list and writing down what I've done and what I need to finish when I get back. By creating a to-do list before I go, I'm taking out the guess work of where I need to start when I get back. I also find that knowing where I need to start helps me get into the swing of things. It's so much better than spending several hours when I'm back reviewing my work and trying to remember what I need to do next.
Give Yourself Extra Time
If possible, I prefer to return from vacation a day or two before I'm scheduled to go back to work. This way I'm able to spend time doing laundry, going through mail, paying any necessary bills, etc. without rushing back to work.
It's also helpful for R to have some time to settle back into being home before returning to school.
