Comparing images of live subjects outdoors and in the conditions you described cannot in any way be compared to shots from a tripod mounted camera in studio conditions.
Feel proud of yourself, and keep shooting.

Interestingly I'm looking through some other EXIFs . . . "Shake Reduction (Setup)" is either 7 or 4. I believe 7 is on and 4 is off ??

Whilst the Sigma 180mm lens is discontinued, they are available in the used marketplace from time to time.
I have one which I will not part with, because it is so good at macro distances. It's not too shabby as a normal tele lens either, but no match for the DA* 200mm for instance.
Good luck with whatever solution you choose.

My guess is Peter will have one of the most infuriating days ever....

Alkalines are not the best choice of battery to use in cameras though. Rechargeable cells like Eneloops which have a very low self discharge rate are a far better option.

I got a grip too, which has the AA battery holder.
Guess what, I've only bought 4 AA's with me, and it needs 6, Aaaaaarrgghhhh.
Seriously though, it looks the business and Chris was as helpful as ever.

When using Photome use "Update Now" to make sure that the db is up to date.
""You are already using the latest version of Photome - there are no other updates available.""
About: Version 0.79R17 ( build 856 )
hmm?
Once installed, use its update facility.
