First post here. You guys are the reason I have this awesome lens, thanks for that! Most of the pictures I enjoy most I haven taken with it. The below picture is a 5 exposure blending post-processed in LR3. It is the new national gallery in Berlin...

Welcome and very nice debut shot. This lens is lots of fun for architecture, especially modern structures.

Some great talent with this little gem is on display, but that beach shot is the money shot!

Hello everyone,

This thread has captivated me for a long time. And it finally grabbed my credit card and forced me to buy the DA 15 Ltd!

I got mine yesterday and have been playing with it a lot. I do not pretend that the pictures I'm posting are anywhere near the quality of what I've seen in this thread. I hope one day I can attain those heights. But I wanted to contribute anyway!

This lens is very impressive. It's sharp, not the sharpest, but plenty sharp. But the colors and contrast straight out of the camera in RAW format is pretty dang incredible. I've ordered a 49mm ND filter so I can join in that fun as well.

Well, here are a few photos. Please don't laugh!
