Camera Hood Petal
Why I use Sigma Macro Lens
In my profession as a photographer, I rely on the materials I have, the camera and the lens. Currently I am using Nikon D80 and the lens I have is Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 EX DC Macro HSM which I am really fond of.
I want to discuss about this lens in particular and why I liked this so much. Sigma 18-50 mm has a large aperture of F2.8 throughout the entire zoom range, complete with minimum distance of 20cm (7.9") and a maximum magnification of 1:3, making it ideal for close-up photography. It is specifically designed to suit the characteristics of a digital SLR camera which provides a high level of optical performance.
And because it is F2.8 this lens can take fast photography meaning it can be used for sports and any fast moving objects, also this eliminates blur from photos. The design is incorporate with both glass-mold and hybrid aspherical lens technology by which offers superior peripheral brightness, extreme high image quality as well as a compact and lightweight construction. Special Low Dispersion (SLD) and Extraordinary Low Dispersion (ELD) glass elements provided with excellent correction of color aberrations.
Another feature it provides is the super multi-layer coating that reduces flare and ghosting which is a common problem with digital cameras. A high quality image is assured throughout the entire zoom range. Also an inner focusing system eliminates front lens rotation making the lens particularly suitable for using the petal-type lens hood (supplied) plus circular polarizing filters.
The sigma macro lens is as useful as you can get, it can help you in your professional aspiration as a photographer. There might be a comparison with other camera lenses but I can proudly agree upon that the sigma macro lens is one of the best camera lenses I have ever used.

What's a good camera bag for a Nikon D40 two lens kit?
I just purchased a Nikon D40 two lens kit (18-55mm and 55mm-200mm) lens.
I'm looking for a great camera bag that can hold both camera body while a lens is attached, also the other lens on the side, and a few accessories such as filters, a petal lens hood, and perhaps a notepad with pen.
So zipper pockets is a plus.
Any recommendations? Brand names, websites (if possible) and personal first-hand experience would be helpful.
Also, wouldn't mind hearing what brand names *to avoid* if you want to mention those as well.
Thanks!
also forgot to mention... looking to also keep a speed flash attachment.
Personally I have the Lowepro Slingshot 200AW...it's great for trekking...I have 3 lenses w/ one attached to the camera, and with the flash on the other side. On top it has a compartment that you can pretty much put any accessorie you like. It's great.
