Good Deals: Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 Canon

Vitaliy_Kiselev — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 13:30:53 +0000

Price: $110.

Problem: Aperture needs repairs. It can be simple sticking (that can be ok for video), or worse. Ask seller.
If you use Kipon adapter with aperture it can be ok.

Nikon mount lens, with not working AF, so, for film usage it will be ok.
Not cheap.

Do you think the Nikon D7000 has a future of being hacked? A firmware update is available but where would you start? My room mate is a 4th year electrical engineer student. I asked him about hacking it but he told me he doesn't know where to start. Or know which IDE/Language was used in compiling the nikon firmware. Any advice to get a jumpstart?
