Many good pictures, but one in particular just jumped out at me as best!

In the distant past I used enlarging lenses mounted on bellows as macro lenses. Was pleased with the results. Haven't scanned any of the Kodachrome slides into digital to provide examples.

I have and use the Sigma (Bigma) 50-500 for wildlife photography. Yes, it is big, it is heavy, but it covers a 50 to 500 range and it focuses quite close for a long telephoto. I frequently use it with the Pentax-DA 1.4X AW rear converter and am pleased with the results. Some samples attached so you can judge for yourself. The hummingbird photo was with the 1.4x rear converter and with a tripod under the lens. The other three are cropped and were handheld on a K-10D, the bears were taken with a Tamron 2x converter and manually focused. The photo of Denali was taken from south of Talkeetna so a telephoto was required.
