7,10,11,12 and 20 are my favourites out of what is a great set overall. 10 shows an amazing amount of detail on her face! Can't work out what the objects in 20 are, but it's a fantastic abstract!

Thanks KM, yes, the mall is a bit weird, with the sky painted on the ceiling and electric gondolas!

The skylight is about the only real thing in there, unless it's such a good fake I haven't noticed! It's not HDR. I will have another look at the skylight next time I am there to see if the lines are really there: if not, my 10-20 is doing something strange.

Nice composition, though the abbey looks a touch blurred on my monitor? I think perhaps it would suit mono better, it doesn't look like the light was doing you any favours.

Nice and sharp, I like the background too. Perhaps a sqaurer crop, removing a bit from the right hand side?

I took the K5 to Villagio Mall in Doha to try it out in low light: 800 ISO seems fine, but 1600 seems to be pushing it a bit, unless I am doing someting wrong? All with the Sigma 10-20, first three 800 ISO, the last one of the canal at 1600. All taken at f8.

Skylight (not sure why some of the lines on the skylight are double)

Ditto from me. Great set, especially considering the lighting. My favourites are 3, but even more so 4.

I really like the first and second ones. I love colour street shots, and they have plenty of colour! The first could perhaps do with cropping the distracting red board on the right hand side out, which conveniently would put the lady on a third walking into the frame?

Of the other two, I prefer "Stepping out" as his pose more closely mimics the models, and his red top matching the model's dress stops my eye being pulled towards the model as much.

Lovely cameras, utterly ridiculous prices.....I guess they must have a captive audience, similar to those that pay $20 000+ for digital backs.
