Its an impressive piece of kit
It is strange isn't it how some things go un-noticed!

Looks good to me, too. The quality of image looks fantastic, and I am sure its not just down to be a relatively small web sized upload. The light and shadow patterns of no 7 really put it through its paces!

A great study in minimalism. No 7 whilst not the best of the bunch IMO, is sheer genius (if that makes sense!)

The composition works for me, and I think I would be inclined to duotone the whole image with the bluecast of the colour version

Very nice shots. No 4 has a great lead in with the road peaking ahead, and the light coming off the fence

Agreed - it does seem strange. I am not in the realm of even entertaining a Zed, but it is good that the K5 is more than able to hold its own. If I understand correctly many are of the opinion that the sensor even though ageing now was a high-point of APSC progress.
For me its good to see that the OGPS tracked and the stars and that you have got away without having to overlay a static foreground.

Yes it is the 'Sigma Achromatic Macro Lens' - bought it to use with the old sigma 70-300 APO lens to give it 1:1 magnification

Only just seen these; great stuff from such a lens. I have an old Sigma screw on macro adapter that is same size thread as the 55-300; must give it a go having seen these!

Also followed the link to your flickr page - you have some excellent photos on there!
