Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 EX DG HSM is the world’s widest rectilinear lens for a 35mm SLR. The previous widest lens was Nikon’s 13mm f/5.6 AI-s manual focus lens which would cost you at about $15,000. The Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 has Four Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass elements for effective compensation of color aberration, which is a common problem with super-wide angle lenses. Two pieces of molded glass and three aspherical lenses, including two molded glass aspherical lens elements, offer excellent correction for linear distortion as well as all types of aberration.

This lens is quite big, but amazingly it is not heavy at all. With Canon EOS 5D, the Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 EX DG is perfectly well-balanced. It’s also sturdy and cosmetically good in crackle-gray finish with heavily ribbed, rubberized, smooth-turning zoom and focus rings.

07 February’07: Canon 1Ds mkIII Rumors

DSLR-Forum: “The 22 MP [of the MkIII] include the pixels not used for the actual picture. The effective number of pixels of the 1Ds Mark III is 20,67MP. The 40d has an effective pixelcount of 10,32 MP, that means a little more than the 400D.”
Kakaku: “1Ds Mark II successor would be released as having the dust reduction, 22MP sensor, and, larger LCD. The price is around 900,000 yen that is almost the same price as the 1Ds Mark II from his friend that is a professional camera man. The release timing is May. “
TheOnlinePhotographer: “The last shoot had a Canon rep come by with the new 22MP digi demo body. It is half the size of the 1Ds Mark II. They said they are hustling to make lenses that will work with what this body can resolve. They may even make a new mount again for an entirely new lens design. It won’t be out before Phot Show East.”
