I picked up the Sigma 70-300 DG version as new old stock for my K-1. I was pleasantly surprised. Taken handheld in natural light. Wide open at f5.6 and 300mm in macro mode. Cropped to 6000x4004 before resizing

This lens continues to impress. Bee was crawling on a flower that was in turn swaying in a gentle breeze. Handheld using autofocus. Nope the autofocus is not quiet. Not sure why it decreased the quality from 100 to 85 in the deleted post..I guess I exceeded the 1MB photo limit. This is a 100% crop hopefully at 100% quality....(LOL sure I'm not anal
