Took this picture roaming around and having put on the old DAL 55-300 on, instead of the 30mm f1.4 Art.

thanks @Sailor! The handling of the Sigma 30mm 1.4 Art is a little bit on the crappy site, but after tweeking in post the results are often really solid! Unless you realize all the misfocused shots.

@KiloHotelphoto: Yes, it's a Z8. They really do have all kinds of neat things. You can pay it a visit >>here<<.

Shot taken @ Classic Remise, Düsseldorf, Germany.

Greetings!

EDIT: As you can see, there is heavy front focus, which was not intended. And yes, it was the known Sigma Art misfocus issue. Since then, I always used MF, although the viewfinder plus focus indicator (red square) makes it tough to pin point your subject af F1.4. Post processing in Silkypix.

I filled out the survey form. My K-30 is almost 17.000 shots heavy and I never had any problems with it. Hoping for the best!

A great view and fantastic scene. Without the boat in the background, the impression of lonelyness would be much greater. Imho, this would make the picture "readable" in more ways. Could been a scene in the winter. Or before a boating trip. Could be an abandoned place. Well done b/w!

Nice composition of the rose and good depth of field control. Great post processing! Obviously, I like the flowery one the most.

Very well-executed shots! The first one looks almost like a painting. I was always curious, what potential the Pentax Limited lenses offer.

Very well done! Your shirt offers a great contrast to the shades of your skin and the backdrop. Only little nitpick: I would leave a little bit more space in the top of the frame, to get the whole of your head/hat in it, creating a bit more room and making the shot appear bigger.

A little manual focusing wide open due to the well known issue of this lenses arbitrary AF wide open.
City of Leipzig, next to Moritzbastei and the (formerly) new University Cafeteria. Spring is awesome!

This picture was taken during a short trip to the campus of one of the town's universities during summer. Can you spot, which country this is :p?
Unfortunately, the AF of the Sigma didn't quite snap on (which seems to be a common problem unless live view is used for capturing).

Hello everyone!

I'm the_picky_dude from Germany. I lurked the forums quite a time and enjoyed the reviews. Finally I made an account.

My gear consists more or less of a lovely white K-30 I bought abroad, a DAL 55-300mm and a Sigma 30mm Art. Camera and me went places!

Though Pentax is at my place a rare sight, I did see some Pentaxians roam the streets. :)
