Here are a few more from the (new to me) DA 35mm Macro. All shot in the backyard and processed with Lightroom 3.







What do you think?

How about you telling us what you think about your new lens and the pictures you took?

Very nice colors...

I wanted to ask.. is this as close as the lens goes?
Because without looking, it almost seems about the same as my K 35mm lens in terms of closeness...

I really like these colors. I'm only asking out of curiosity btw.

They do not look like they are 1:1 by any means....

I really like it! Typical (great) limited build quality. Great built in hood and a nice size.

Nope, it will focus as close as you can get the lens to the subject. With 35mm, that tends to be very close! I took these shoots from a little further out. My feeling is still that the 100mm Macro is a better all around macro lens (and might be my next purchase).

Their not!
