I've looked at some threads about blurry photos, and learned a good bit. So, this may be an old subject, but I hope it is okay to ask, and it is in the correct forum.
I have a K50, and enjoy it. used it a good bit, although not nearly as much as I would like to!
So, I bought a cheap, very cheap, used Sigma 100-300 lens, have the aperture setting on "A", thinking that means I can set the aperture with the camera.
My problem is, that I cannot get a clear picture to save myself! I've tried to attach a sized down sample, and on this picture I tried focusing on the white sign. There is a range of 100 feet to probably a couple of thousand feet (trees in background), and nothing looks to be in good focus.
The setting was at F10, 1/2000 second. Shake reduction was on, and I was resting the camera on the roof of my car, so it should have been pretty steady? Plus, with that shutter speed, I can't imagine me shaking the camera to blur everything?
Any suggestions, other than chunking the cheap glass...which I haven't totally ruled out...I'd like to see if there is something I didn't do, should have done, or done differently before I just write it off as bad glass.
