anyone searching on Google won't find it without the
proper title

Nice set Paul. Aren't the strap rungs going to scratch you camera?

Since when do you chose lenses by what they fail on in
test reports. Sigma state it's suitable for landscapes...

"The 18-35mm is ideal for landscapes, portraits, still life,
snap shots, casual, and close-ups...."

Looks great at 35mm, but it's the same price as a 31mm LTD

I suppose your answer to people who say Pentax AF
is slow would be.... Don't use it for anything that moves...
I don't see why people would think of using a Pentax
camera in that way etc.....

Brick wall photography at it's very best!

This shot link from the Ricoh GR is very impressive
Look at the original size in the corners.....

Ricoh should release that lens in a K Mount

Exactly. I can't understand the criticism of lack of edge sharpness for these type of lenses. Edge sharpness is even less required for bokeh
That's because a lot of "reviewers" are picturing brick walls, where edge sharpness is of a greatest importance
Which reviewers are picturing brick wall?

A lot of people want a lens like this for nightime photography,
cityscapes, bridges, shots across rivers etc. and sharpness at
the edges is important.

Obviously professional twig photographers aren't concerned
with the edges

But

What is the point of the 1st 3 digits? (100-9999) Think I need to dig out a manual....
Is this the file name or directory name?

The DCF Specification only allows UPPER CASE alphanumeric chars.
in the 1st four parts of the DOS filename. The next four have to
be a number between 0001 and 9999 ..... 0000 is not allowed.
