At long last they’re all out, in stock and making every aspiring wildlife photographer on a budget scratch their head and wonder which one they should own? Of course I’m talking about the Tamron 150-600mm f/5-6.3 VC, the Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG Contemporary and the Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6E VR. These...

February 7, 2016 By Iliah Borg 23 Comments

Figure 10. ACR. PV2010, default settings are zeroed-out

Nikon-D5-Sample-Image-1
