It resizes it because carriers impose a limit on MMS filesize. If you email it, it will be fine.

Hey guys, I didn't think a quick little question like this deserved a thread of its own but I'm looking for a general purpose "kit-ish" lens. I recently sold my D3100 kit. I was sort of set on getting the Nikon 16-85mm (even though it was a bit pricier than I'd have liked) but apparently that's been discontinued. I've read there's going to be a 16-85mm f/4 out but I don't want to wait longer or spend too much money on that.
How is the Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4? I want to avoid plastic mount if possible, so the Nikon 18-105mm doesn't seem like a good option. Any personal experience with that Sigma or other recommendations within that budget?
Thanks.

The 16-85 VR is still a fantastic lens, even used. As Sub said, you can find them pretty easily... If you have to buy new, the Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 is great. The non-VC is a tad sharper, but the VC obviously gives you a little more capability to hand-hold.

If you want metal mount and reasonable speed, the 18-70 f/3.5-4.5 is practically free these days, and it's a pretty sharp lens overall!

No idea whats going on, but I guess the 67 shutter sometimes decides to not work? Sweet.
NEGATIVOS SON MAL. Still have two more rolls of 120 to develop which I'm going to develop with fresh dev and blix. I know one of the rolls are perfect fo sho though because it was shot through the GW690 which never goofs.

And the roll I shot in San Fran that was REALLY DAMN GOOD? Turns out. It. It wasn't. Loaded. Correct. Ly. Why I am so calm about this, I do not know, but I do have much angers about this. No idea how though, I swore I saw the crank turn? Still very very confused.

dang so i forgot to edit and encode this short 2min informational piece that i shot of the new director of athletics at my school and not only was he 1.5 hours late because he forgot and went to lunch but he was super rushed to get it done so i shot the whole thing in 10 total mins including camera and light setup. wish i had more than 1 single light. just not perfect lighting for a person sitting and talking. looks good enough for my school but not for me :/

I would use Costco, but the nearest one is in the Boston area... By the time I pay for gas it would be cheaper to send them to Dwayne's.
