It should just be a matter of aligning the red dots and away you go.

My very old Sigma lens has a red dot so I am assuming that your lens does as well.

I do not know if GX10's have the red dot :

Whilst I appreciate that many like to preserve their anonymity, I think that it is both helpful and interesting if members give some idea of their geographical location on the globe when registering and those who have registered in the past but have left out this information are encouraged to edit their profiles.

In particular advice about "where can I buy a........" or "who can repair a........" can only really be provided if location is known.

There was a particularly good example of someone who registered and asked for advice on buying furniture online

John R. (I assume) quickly deleted the post but not before Clarky had provided a 'tongue in cheek' reply directing the person how to find a furniture shop in Sydney

This is of course not a general purpose forum, but very often the advice given on photographic matters is tempered by knowing approximately where someone lives.

It is the 5 metre minimum focus distance that puts me off, as well as the £90 postal charge

Yippee! My bargain Sigma 10 -20 has just arrived!
I spotted it on a local internet auction site (Marktplaats) on Thursday and it arrived just now.
€350 for a brand new lens! I am happy. It should be a great lens for our trip to Arizona and New Mexico in May.
It (almost) makes up for missing out on my 50-135*.
Nothing could make up for missing out on a DA* 50 -135

I wish I was going to Arizona and Mexico in May

Yes it is snowing here in Denmark atm. Downloaded the trial version of photomatrix and tried out.

Still got a few watermarks. Have to try further before buying.

Any c & c more than welcome.

I like No. 2 but No. 1 seems to have a strange colour cast.

I am not sure that battery gauges are worth anything with lithium batteries.

My Metz flash will warn that the batteries are low, immediately after I put in a brand new set of lithium AA's.

The manual does warn that with some battery types, the gauge can be somewhat erratic.
