Macro - inspired by Clarky's recent upload

Had to post this when I saw your recent upload. This was shot this weekend with the sigma 105 macro - and flash.

Well done, They are difficult little beggers to catch in flight Shame you can't see his face.

BTW i picked up my Sigma 180mm today

Please let us now how good that Sigma is.

I'm wondering to buy one as well - with a 1.4 converter.

Since I'm doing so much macro as I am - I wonder if this is better than a 300mm DA*........

I took it out for a couple of shots this afternoon, I only fired off a dozen or so shots when the rain started.







If you going to do mainly macro then the Sigma 180 is a little easier to handle than the DA300, You really need a tripod when doing closeup work with the 300 but its a superb lens none the less
