Very true, I'm still learning with FA 20-35 on the K-1. It is definitely is a different lens.

Thank you, I never figured I would own the Sigma 180 Macro. Usually they sell for around 800 US Dollars. Then I came across one in mint condition for 450 US Dollars. I jumped on it figuring it was now or never. It has been a trying lens to learn. It is twice the size of my DFA 100 Macro WR. I did not expect to get the FA 20-35. I won that on an EBay auction. I was shocked to get the message that I won it. I figured I was going to get outbid as usual.

Another Sigma 180 Macro, K-1, and AF540FGZII flash.

You do some nice work with the 180.

Thank you it has been fun learning with this lens. The depth of field is razor thin. It is thin even stopped down.

Here is another Sigma 180 Macro shot on the K-1.

I have an older Sigma 17-70C that hasn't had much use since I got the Sigma 17-50 2.8mm lens. I do sometimes miss the extra 20mm of reach but I love the pictures I get with this lens.

I just got a Sigma Super Wide II 24/2.8 to help put together a compact FF prime travel kit.
I just got out to the yard for a few shots last night but it seems pretty good although some shots exhibited pretty heavy distortion that I may need to figure out how to correct for stuff like architecture. Still a nice little lens for not much money so I'm happy with the purchase. The close focus capability is a nice feature.

Took my Sigma 50-500 out for my walk the other day and caught this image of a Mallard duckling & a young Osprey about ready to fly and a Sea Gull watching intently

50-150/2.8 I think maybe I used the 1.4x TC for this shot but EXIF says 150mm so who knows. I still cropped it a lot.

A few from the Sigma 28 1.8 that I temporarily owned. Ended up returning due to finding a defect from the factory after a couple of weeks of use.
