Oh, Stop! I'm trying to pretend I don't want a Sigma 180.
You have to find one first

Saying that the Irix 150mm f/2.8 macro could be nice.

Nice shooting, Ivan, I particularly like the first one with the bug.

Thank you. I could see those bugs were up to something.

Many thanks.

Water droplets are my favourite macro subject, I find them much more flexible in composition that bugs or anything else.

Great shots.

Just wanted to say a quick hello. Long time member that fell off the map for a time. I have been doing a little lurking and I have seen enough. Once upon a time I had the Sigma 70 and loved it, but I really wanted a little longer. So as I fell away form Photography I sold some glass, the 70 was one that I had a hard time letting go, the other was the 31 but that’s another story.

So many great shots here. I have the itch again and you guy’s didn’t help! I bought the KP a couple of weeks ago now it’s time to add a Macro again. There are some truly stunning shots from a couple of lenses that I am interested in. So I’m leaning towards the 90 Tamron any major reasons I should rethink this?

Here is a shot with the K20 and the Sig 70.
