    Fisheye's; Tokina v Sigma v Rest

    I have a Canon 70D and one of the shitty Samyang fisheye's. I am looking to upgrade. Currently looking at either the Tokina 10-17mm 3.5 - 4.5 OR at the pricier end, the Sigma 8mm 2.8. Any thoughts on these, or other lenses? I'll be mainly shooting in nightclubs.

    Advice re. Whistler Instructing

    I am from Australia and considering doing my level 1 instructors course this coming season. If I was to finish the course on say, January 10, what are the chances of me scoring a job straight after at Whis, or any Canadian resort for that matter? Anyone have experience with mid-season hiring...

    Canon 17-40 f4 L vs Sigma 17-50 f2.8

    Hi, I recently purchased a 70D and Sigma 17-50 2.8. The focus ring was faulty, extremely sticky, so I sent it back to DWI. I am now considering the Canon 17-40 f4 L series lens. My question is; is the L-quality glass, better build quality, nice focus ring and possibly increased sharpness worth...

    Focusing and Gildecam

    This may seem like a rookie question, but how to videographers keep the skier in focus when skiing with a glide cam or something similar? Surely they are not manually adjusting focus as they ski.

    Question about Line

    Hi, I just picked up a pair of 2014 line chronics (incredible ski by the way), and have a question. Will I need to detune the edges for rails? I mainly hit boxes but am now migrating to rails. Not keen on doing so since I ski the mountain regularly. K+ for help! Peace

    Line Chronicles vs Travelling Circus
