Easy to read and a great storyline. I would of liked a bit more depth, a bit more ‘meat on the bones’ but for a simple enjoyable read this is great.

I purchased this product for my mother who is an avid reader and she loves it! It was easy to use and now she never leaves home without it!

I’m so glad I bought this used for $2 vs. new. It looks cool, and the Kitchenaid brand was a plus. Muffins and cupcakes don’t brown like they should. The texture and crumb are different. The pan doesn’t effect taste luckily. Storage is a problem. Using non-stick sprays leaves a sticky finish to the muffin pan eventually that does not come off in the dishwasher – which would also happen with some metal cupcake or cake pans as well. I do not recommend this at all. If anyone wants to pay shipping, they can have my pan! I’ll stick to metal pans.

I’m lucky in that this lens has apparently jumped in price since I purchased to when I’m getting around to this review.

My first experience with Sigma was a 28-300 I had on a camera ages ago. The barrel oil canned and picture quality was so-so. I needed this lens for performing interior and exterior home remodeling pictures as part of a contract job.

First impressions when unboxing. Wow. This is a different breed of lens than my first Sigma. The lens feels solid and well made. Has a nice carry case that comes with it, even though I don’t use them.

My first day of playing with the lens was a cloudless day at a tree preservation high up on a hill. First couple of shots I noticed a lot of vignetting on the LCD. I realized then that the lens hood on the end of the lens slides off easily to expose, Popeye!

When not shooting with the hood, you have to be very wary of the sun angles, as you’ll get immense flare from the intense curvature of the lens.

The lens takes some learning because of distortion and your physical relationships to your subject. Don’t expect, as with any lens, to throw it on and start shooting keepers.

I’ve found far more uses for this lens that I originally anticipated. In addition to the interior photography, I’ve found it quite useful in providing a unique venue snapshot when shooting weddings. I will try to upload some customer photos from the lens.

This is technically my first third party lens (the other is the fantastic telephoto Sigma 70-300mm APO). It is extremely sharp throughout its range and the photos come out colorful and accurate. Zooming and when needed, manually focusing is silky smooth. Which is very nice for a lens at this price range.
Keep in mind though it is large and heavy. But that’s what you get when going with Tokina. Which to me isn’t really a bad thing. And yes! It even comes with its own durable lens hood and weather resistant sealing on the mount end.

Garage saver. This device can be an excellent space saving tool, especially if you have a tall garage ceiling. It was easily installed. Tip: If you have attic access make a small hole next to the beam you plan to mount the device to (Unless you have an extremely reliable studfinder). This will make finding the beam very easy and the mount will cover up the hole.
