I'm perfectly happy with the Tamron 90mm, f/2.5, 1:2 macro 52B, though I don't admittedly do much macro, but it's a great lens anyway. Works well with the 1:1 converter too, and it cost me 90 quid.

And I think the Sigma 10-20 is hard to beat. I don't believe you need to spend mega-bucks to get good results, unless you are planning on doing billboards, in which case you're not looking at APS-C cameras anyway.

Apologies if I am stating the obvious, but how did you transfer these images to your computer? If it was directly from the camera, then I would suggest trying to transfer the images from the card to your computer using a card reader. It may be that it's just the camera that cannot cope with the transfer, especially if it does not handle 32gb cards.

I agree with the above, seems a bit much is cut off from the bottom, could do with more of the chassis visible, and perhaps the wires cloned out, but that would take a while!

I have been trying to find a Metz 50 AF-1 but seems they are being released at Photokina so I will have to wait....

Lovely set, I like St George the best too, but they are all good.

That counts me out of this weeks competition as there are not any boarded up shop windows here in Qatar....

seems a bit of a restrictive subject IMHO......would perhaps be better suited to a fortnightly competition as I dont think many people will have an appropriate image on their hard drive.....
