Long exposures open up a whole new way of seeing the world, so it's a great subject.

The Sigma cameras probably sell in very low numbers indeed, but that's hardly the point.

The rest I totally agree with. Open the mind to all possibilities, but there comes a point where a decision is made and that closes off the situation for that moment. It can always be revisited periodically.

These are pretty extreme views being expressed and it might not be exactly as suggested.

I have done a few reviews now for EPZ. How much editorial pressure has been felt to achieve a given end result? None whatsoever.

How much pressure has there been from advertisers? None whatsoever.

The views and conclusions presented were entirely my own. People are free to agree or disagree with them, but that's a different matter.

What is perceived as editorial bias may be personal bias or may be just a conclusion that is valid and we don't like.

All I can suggest is keeep an open mind. There may be less conspiracy than we think.

I think you probably know that Sigma are an independent lens manufacturer and not a major camera manufacturing marque....

Using "Save As" instead of "Save For Web" will preserve the EXIF data. I used the latter because of some convenience in Windows, but have now reverted to the former.

Glad it worked out OK.

As a general point, there's no advantage to uploading huge files as the quality difference will not show on screen, it will take longer to upload and may not upload at all.

I use 1000 pixels on the longest side, 72ppi, sRGB and a file size of 200-400K.

Worth a look at these specs, which may at some stage become available in Pentax fit.

At the moment they aren't available in any fit.

But they don't make any bodies in those mounts, so why would they?

You don't see Canon making lenses in Nikon mount.

Price ammended to £130 as per request from Grisha.

It focuses close, gives nice sharp images and is quite compact as well. Nice lens overall.

It will creep under its own weight, but a lock is provided to prevent this whilst carrying.
