His comment:
I like landscape and street photography… I spent a long time trying to decide which I like more… but my wife told me I am good in both
so my website has both www.hasanodeh.com
I see this lens as a dream for my street photography… speed and discretion is the key to street photography… you have to be versatile. able to switch focal lengths instantly without changing lenses is an amazing way to make sure you get the best street images…. starting from environmental portraits all the way to close ups of a face of a 92 years old lady selling roses to young couples. The PZD will allow me to focus faster when the moment presents itself and the quite focusing system (along with the silencer mode on my camera) will make sure I do not disturb that magical moment as it happens. Also the vibration compensation would be amazing as shooting from a tripod is almost never an option for street photography… so a lens with a good VC is a god send.
To anyone reading this… Look at my website and get this…. I am self taught… and this is where it all happened… on DPS… just keep shooting and keep reading… It’ll be amazing if DPS gives a lens that let me take what I learned here to another level. thanks guys whether you chose me or not for your efforts on DPS.
We were all thrilled with the entries – you tugged at our heartstrings, made us laugh, made us smile, but most importantly, you made us keep wanting to do more of what we are doing; providing you quality information and guidance to become a better photographer. We were so pleased to see that you came from every part of the world, young adults to grandparents, and everyone in between. Thank you all for your entries!
Here is a special post from the winner of the Tamron 16-300mm Di II VC PCD Macro from our December, 2014 Contest:
I am not entering!!! I won one of these in December (THANKS DPS!!!!!) and I love love love the lens!!! For me, it takes so much stress out of getting the picture just the way I want to without a need to switch between lenses. It really freed me up as a photographer to think about things like composition and camera settings instead of handling the lenses. Wonderful feeling, and a wonderful lens. Thanks again! This picture was taken with it too, from a moving car – and I was READY!!!!
