Simon, that's an excellent result. Cleverly set up. Well done.

One from a recent coastal trip, from the stellar DA L 35 f/2.4:

Thanks Ash! Nice shot too!

Thanks. I actually have quite a few street portraits like that, as those are the most easy to make.
I really should post more of them

That one was with the D7000 and Sigma 30F/1.4
i took a few today with the K20D and DA35F/2.4. I will process them quickly and post em up.

Here's one with the Sigma 30/1.4. It's at f/1.6, and it was dark, even to my eyes. One table lamp on, about 10 feet away. I was amazed that the Sigma was able to get focus, but it did - multiple times.

These I shot yesterday. K20D and DA35F/2.4

Nice capture !
Does the Pentax version of the Sigma 30F/1.4 have HSM?

Thank you. No HSM for Pentax in this lens. Slight bummer.

Another portrait of my daughter. Quite soft (front focussed) but I like it, what do you think:
