The Sigma APO Macro 180mm F2.8 EX APO DG OS HSM incorporates a magnification ratio of 1:1 & a large maximum aperture of F2.8 & benefits from Sigma’s original Optical Stabilizer function. The wide F2.8 aperture allows faster shutter speeds for narrow depth of field, enabling photographers to emphasize the subject. Three FLD (“F” Low Dispersion) glass elements provide excellent correction for colour aberrations. This lens incorporates Sigma’s floating inner focusing system which minimizes aberrations that occur as shooting distances change, & enables stable rendering of the image from infinity to 1:1 magnification. The Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare & ghosting & provides sharp & high contrast images even at the maximum aperture. Equipped with Sigma’s own propriety OS (Optical Stabilizer) system, this lens offers the use of shutter speeds Approx. 4 stops slower than would otherwise be possible, enabling handheld close-up photography. The incorporation of HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) ensures quiet & high speed autofocus as well as full-time manual focus capability. A rounded 9 blade diaphragm creates an attractive blur to the out of focus areas of the image. At 1:1 magnification, this lens has a focusing distance of 47cm/18.5in, which is a greater working distance than shorter focal length macro lenses. This is advantageous when taking pictures of highly sensitive subjects such as butterflies & insects. Attaching Sigma’s optional Tele Converter’s allows photographers’ to shoot with an even greater working distance or with a magnification ratio larger than 1:1. ...

Softie Windshield A robust & proctical windhsield (70mm in diametre) performing as well as a standard windshield (without windjammer) The softie alone provides a fast, flexible & cost effective solution for ENG on camera microphones. Constructed of an acoustic foam base covered by a specially designed synthetic fur fabri together with a seperate shockmount with it's own bracket & either pistol grip handle or boom adapter. 30mm long fur, giving protection up to 25db wind noise reduction. Available in a large range of sizes to fit most popular microphones. The main component of the Softie mount is a one piece rubber (actual

Material:
EPDM) diaphragm shockmount. This unit is extremely robust, & has been tested in all environment conditions to ensure it performs. The Softie Mount comes in three sizes, depending on which microphone being used. Small Hole 19-20mm diameter Medium Hole 21-22mm diameter Large Hole 24-25mm diameter The mounts are 58mm diameter x 56mm long, & support short to medium length shotgun microphones. Please use the " Quick Product Finder" to see what size you need for your mic. The Softie mount will only fit shotgun microphones, which are cylindrical in shape (the same diameter though their whole length). We can not mount microphones that taper, with the Softie mount. The longest Softie Windshields we make have an internal bore of 32cm (12-1/2")
- Example:AKG CK68 or Audio Technica AT815b. These are the longest microphones we would recomend using a Softie Mount for, simply because the mount is flexible & can not support longer mics. For longer mics, we would only recomend a Full Windshield System, & a Modular suspension. The Softie Mount, used with the Softie Windshield provides a fast, flexible & cost effective solution for ENG on camera microphones This system will allow the user to either hold the mount with the pistol grip handle. Or attach it to a boom pole using the 3/8" Whitworth threaded insert in the base of the handle. This gives a very robust mounting system, which will be suitable for most situations.

The 18x 50IS AW is unique among high-magnification binoculars because they incorporate Canon's remarkable Optical Image Stabilizer technology. Proven highly effective in Canon video camcorders & professional lenses, this revolutionary system employs a novel Vari-Angle Prism that instantly & continuously makes adjustments to maintain a steady image. With Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer, you can enjoy the resolving power of these binoculars without a tripod. You can even use them from within moving vehicles. Their shake-free performance not only enhances your ability to view fine detail but also reduces eye strain & fatigue. The IS series feature eyepiece lenses with a unique Doublet Field Flattener, which dramatically reduces curvature of field. As a result, there is none of the image distortion & blurring at the periphery typical of high-magnification binoculars. This advanced design also results in long eye relief, which enables eyeglass wearers to view the entire field without vignetting. Canon's superior optical engineering also provides unusually wide apparent field-of view. This is particularly important in high-magnification binoculars as it makes it easier to locate your desired subject. ...

18mm F2.8 Batis Lens - Sony E Mount

Zeiss 18mm f2.8 Batis Lens - Sony E Mount The ZEISS Batis autofocus lenses were specially developed for mirrorless full-frame system cameras from Sony. The lenses are fully compatible with all E-mount cameras and offer not only fast, quiet autofocus, but also protection against dust and spray water. For creative photography, the innovative OLED display shows the distance and depth of field to ensure that the focusing range can always be perfectly set. The result: images that will amaze you. The completely new design of the high-speed ZEISS Batis family offers perfect image quality. Features: •Diagonal angular field of 99 degrees, making it ideal for landscape, architechtural and astro photography, along with unique interior shots of small spaces. •Currently the shortest autofocus
full-frame lens with fixed focal length on the market. •Impressive image quality across the entire image field. •Innovative OLED display to show focus distance and depth of field. •Optics based on the ZEISS Distagon optical design, featuring 11 lens elements in ten groups. •The floating elements design allows for consistently high image performance in the focal plane - from the minimum object distance to infinity. •Creative freedom with the option of manual or autofocus. •Dust and weather sealed. Very large field angle and fast autofocus – combined with protection against dust and spray water for reliable photography in all weathers: this is the ideal full-frame lens for landscape, astro and architectural photography. Originally developed for SLR cameras in which, due to
the mirror box, a long back focal distance is required for short focal lengths (the distance between the back lens element and the film plane must be considerably longer than the focal length), the Distagon lenses (retrofocus design) are also ideal for mirrorless system cameras thanks to their optimized ray path. This also enables excellent image performance with large image angles for digital camera systems without mirrors. The design of the autofocus system requires an extremely accurate shifting of particular lens groups. The focusing system of ZEISS lenses is designed to ensure a robust and smooth-running autofocus mechanism with the best imaging performance. The powerful lens for the mirrorless full-frame system of Sony fulfills the highest requirements. Despite its compact design,
the image meets the expectations of professional photographers. Richly saturated and vivid colours are a must in the creation of lasting impressions. However, stray light within an optical system leads to a lightening of the image that is particularly noticeable in the shadows. This reduces image contrast, with the result that exposures lack contrast and appear faded. To avoid this, ZEISS combines various specially developed technologies to reduce the undesirable effects of stray light. Thanks to features that are designed to keep out dust and spray water, the lens is perfectly suited for critical outdoor conditions. It is also designed for many years of intensive use.
