Does this work as a portrait? Needless to say, this is heavily cropped.
The girls promoting the movie Iron Sky, at Comic-Con 2012 in San Diego last month. I was trying for a shot of the whole line (maybe 20 of them) but they wound up all looking in different directions and I had to grab this fast. I was pretty close to these 2. I guess that's one of the benefits of using a 15 for portraits. You definitely get to interact with your models.
There is more Comic-Con stuff on my blog, much of it with the DA15.

Here's a shot from last weekend at Comic-Con in San Diego, with the DA15, that is cropped heavily.
Here's the full frame it was cropped from.
There are more Comic-Con images on my blog.

Twitch, I just noticed the Flickr galleries you have set up for each of Limited lenses. You have some great shots in there.

I was out walking around the other day and shot this by just holding the camera out to about what I thought was close to minimum focusing distance, letting it autofocus and firing (i.e no viewfinder, no live view). The shot was nothing special, but then I decided to see how it might look heavily cropped. Shot on a K-7, nothing done to the out-of-camera jpg but cropping, and resizing in iPhoto for export to smugmug. The first shot is the original, just for reference.
Here's the crop. I think it holds up pretty well, at least for screen viewing.

Here are a couple of the new Urban Tree sculptures along the San Diego Bay waterfront, taken this past weekend. There are more in this gallery, although not all were shot with the DA15.
Here's one from the sculpture garden that is part of the San Diego Museum of Art, in Balboa Park, taken last weekend.

I guess I really should post a couple of shots in this thread, since it is one of the main reasons I got the DA15 Ltd. From the Mission San Juan Capistrano, in Southern California, yesterday. Taken with the K7, as jpgs, minor shadow lightening in iPhoto on both.
It really is a nice lens.
