For my fellow NA Pentaxians who may not know, the Australian, and by introduction New Zealand "possum" is a marsupial like the NA opossum (also called a 'possum), but the two are not the same animal and are only very distantly related, not as close as a horse is to a hippopotamus.

Did you use a tripod?

That is one scarce lens, possibly more difficult to find in K mount than the highly praised Voigtlander 125mm macro.,

Hmm ... i think it is more like a long forgotten lens. I also totally forgotten about the existence of the voigtlander 20mm. Was lucky to grab a copy brand new and thanks to a friend who manage to find it!

This one frame shot was taken with Sigma 10-20mm @10mm FF mode and it barely covers everything I wish to capture, IMHO this lens at FF mode in this situation has an advantage over DFA15-30 where there is no time for shooting multiple shots for stitching.

Another shot of the Sigma @10mm but shot with APSC mode, this shot if taken with the DFA15-30 will beat on the resolution.

It's more than long forgotten. Try locating a used one in K-mount on EBAY or anywhere else.

Agree 10%. Inverted, with removal of some foreground elements, it might pass for an "impressionist" painting.
