Fantastic, did you know you had a stone chip on your wing?

Nice car ...nice gallery too.
The fisheye effect is superb, sharpness and rendering look very good indeed. I contemplated getting this lens too but opted for the DA12-24 instead, I think I'll get more use from it...but If I remember niblue you have the Sigma 10-20?
Here's a couple I took tonight with the DA12-24 as a comparison, both at 12mm, notice how close the infocus range changes between wide open and closed down.
Pentax *ist D 1/10s f/4.0 at 12.0mm iso400
Pentax *ist D 2s f/22.0 at 12.0mm iso400

LBA is good for you, a Lens a day helps you work, rest and play.

Brian, now you're just showing off - a 12-24 and a Les Paul Custom?? I'm not sure which one I'll mug you for.

All original, it's a 1979 Silverburst thats mellowed to a beautiful antique golden colour.
