Getting better now with my K-30. This was taken with the DFA 100mm macro though, using a remote.

What you need are lenses, more lenses, bigger lenses, better lenses, faster lenses, vintage lenses and when you have these, your pictures will be perfect!

Nothing much wrong with the sharpness on that one Dave. A great photo.

Thanks David - don't know if you saw my post in the other thread but I'm wondering if I was moving the focus ring with the quickshift on my DA*300 when pressing the shutter as I've been holding the focus ring with my left hand, which I don't on the Sigma as the design is different and tripod mount better to hold.

A very smart specimen, and a very good capture.

Well the focus is cracking on this one. A great capture, I know what you mean about the focus ring on the DA300 though. It`s so easy just to crank it round a tad.
Enjoy life
