Cost of replacing my APS-C lenses (DA* 50-135, DA* 60-250, DA 12-24, Sigma 17-80)

I cannot speak for the others, but the 60-250 works just fine on FF. There is a tiny bit of vignetting noticeable but it did not bother me. If you crop at all it is gone or you can brighten it up in post. There is a baffle modification that some have done to it but I dont think it is worth it.

For anyone who is interested here is my non scientific test pentax 60-250mm F4 on Pentax K-1 with and without Baffle

Thank you..... thinking about Science Fiction, I love old Sci-Fi. I think The Day of the Triffids and Quatermass and the Pit ( 1958 ) are two of my favs.

I'm not able to comment on the art work itself, its not my strength at all .... but I think you have captured some excellent technical reproductions with strong depth, dynamic range and exposure control.

Thank you! That's kind of you to say. These and several others I suspect have been up for a while and they have faded with sunlight and the conditions....

Thanks for the heads up @David - I got a some free time booked in this weekend coming so I may have a return visit to the woods lined up. Was a great way to spend a few hours.

Ha thanks Steve. I don't think i'd want encyclopedic knowledge, but being able to identify the most common ones could be useful

Very nice Chris. I think i'm going to swot up a little, on the fungi we have in this country we have such a variety it would be good to be able to identify them when out and about.

Thanks for that. I was beginning to think that your idea of cheap wasn't the same as mine!

Steve

Ha, im particularly cheap an upcoming video im hoping to demonstrate DIY Pin Hole on a DSLR, which I know its a bit marmite, but my mind has been blown away on how you can capture images without an optic! in front of the sensor.

...... I'm about to try to get a few folks together to photograph fungi in a local wood and will point them to your video as showing how it should be done!

Thank you Steve, that is very kind of you.

...... Pity your video showed how useful an LED light can be on the woodland floor. And that articulating screen... Resisting the temptation to acquire more gadgets just got more difficult...

Oh, my bad, I'm sorry - Thankfully the LED light is relatively cheap, I think it was around 310 from Amazon. And it worked wonders.. I'm planning a night shoot so it wll get more usage then too!
