    Advice needed - Sigma 8-16mm F4.5-5.6 DC HSM

    Hi All, Does anyone have any experience of this lens? I'm tempted by this or the Nikkor 10-24mm to go on my D7100. I'm put off the Nikkor as it won't go FX when I eventually upgrade, but with the price of this Sigma, that's not such a problem. Has anyone used or own one? How did you find it?

    Raw on Android

    Hi all, I've recently bought a D3100, and I was trying to find a basic raw file editor which is available on Android? I have some demos, but they just sync the files from the camera - I just want to be able to change the levels etc, on my Xoom tablet when I'm away from home etc. Thanks! Steve
