As I have never done a sunset before I decided to have a go last night.
I saw people there using tripods and suchlike but just shot a few handheld with the Sigma 135-400mm DG APO.
I have got a lot wider but it seemed about right at this length.

Anyway, looks like I will be leaving Spain to return to the Uk in a few months so I had better get busy with the camera in the meantime

I bought the Nikon one a few months ago and it has never been off my K10D.
Stays on all the time (I don't wear glasses but it seems ok with sunglasses on).

Oh well, thanks for that.
Was thinking of upgrading but not so interested now

Live view : When using live vierw on the K20D can you use it as a focus tool as in it will magnify the subject like on the K10D preview after the shotr has been taken.

The thing is I have promised myself 1 decent DA* lens and this was to be it as I dont do wide so I am happy with the 16-45mm. I am also ok with my Tamron 24-135mm so that rules out the 50-135mm, but for the same price I could get a couple of really nice Tamron or Sigma lenses such as one of the new 70-200mm f2/8's with a converter plus a decent macro.

Well I must admit that's a little more than I thought.
