[Interesting charts, Dan. I see that the 77mm Ltd is significantly sharper than the FA 100mm macro, which is sharper than the best Canon 100mm macro, which is sharper than this Sigma...

...Sigmas represent good value for money, but tell me, why do people buy Canniks?

Because they're deluded, or daft, or both.

Although, to be fair, the Canon tests were, I think, done on the 8mp 350D, so direct comparison with the K10D isn't quite as straightforward as it would be nice to think. The higher resolution of the sensor may well have a bearing on the results.

Dan
Yeah they cant be compared between systems at all really - the max score on the 350D was like 2050 or 2150, on the K10d its 2350
But it still lets you know that the 77 on a K10D completely owns the 100mm on a canon heh

I think in this case its fine - its three pictures of one building. If he had however, put three pictures of three interesting buildings - then its just as if he's searching for votes.

Great winning picture, only slightly spoiled by the COMPLETE LACK OF ANY COLOUR!

Is that Toronto?
at the colour comment

and I'm pretty sure its Vancouver, someone mentioned it in another thread.

Well done lilly! But I must commend John for the true win - Second place, the honour of winning and no judging to do

more luck than judgement?

did you drop the camera upside down on the shutter release then rotate in post processing?

Very nice shot anyways The sky in the background is amazing.
