Thanks for looking and taking time to comment...
Originally posted by Fritz You got some nice shots there. This is one of my favorite lenses as well. The only thing that keeps me from using it more is it's so dang heavy. You really get a workout lugging that thing around!
Hey Fritz, it is a monster on weight. And my copy has some CA/PF issues in high contrast situations. But it is fun getting these results. I have a beautiful copy of the older 90mm with the matching macro adaptor. It is a work of art. But you have to remove the adaptor to use it for portrait mode, which is a drag when I am shooting a bug and then want to turn and shoot the kids playing in the yard.
Originally posted by Peter Zack Looks like a great lens. For untouched photos I'd say you have a winner here.
Thanks Peter, I did crop some and I had attempted a slight contrast adjust with an "office picture program" but it did not really work. A new computer has got to be in my future.
Originally posted by egordon99 Great shots! We have those bugs out here in Pennsylvania too!
Taken with a Sigma 105mm macro -
Thanks Evan, dont know what kind of bug it is, but it and the little inch worm were the only ones braving the weather. Did your 28-75 sell?
Originally posted by RBellavance Congrats on the lens, it is a real gem for sure.
#2 is my favorite of the pics you posted. Great expression on your daughter's face !
Thanks RBellavance, I have never seen her so serious... I must have scared her with my sit still warning. She never talked or smiled thru the whole experience, but then when we were in the car she said " that was fun papa "
