I always like these sort of pics, they show off the wide angle lens so well.
On that subject, how pleased are you with your Sigma, as I have had problems with mine and it is being replaced (see "New Lens Arrives" in the lenses forum)

I was thinking about my early days with a Slr camera and the fact that I only had standard 50mm lens at first. The nearest prime I have for DSLR sensors is my trusty old Cosina 28mm f2.8, so I stuck it on and had a wander round with it. I'm quite pleased by the quality.

Well, thanks for that guys,NOW, does anyone out there want to buy it before I stick it back on eBay?

A more decriptive title for it should be "Right-angle view finder". It fits to the view finder and allows you to look down from above (or each side or underneath) and see the image in the camera viewfinder. Very useful for example if you have the camera on a tripod with it pointing up at the moon. I'm not as supple as some people and doing the contortions to keep getting down and look up in the normal view finder is uncomortable after a bit!

When questioned he said it fitted "M series cameras onward". So he must have made a genuine mistake!

I wanted an angle finder for my MX/K110D super and I bought this on eBay. The seller stated it fitted pentax cameras from the eighties on.
It doesn't! Does anyone know what it does fit, when it was made and can I get a new adapter to fit my cameras?

The power of the prime lens. Why buy new when you can get results like that.
I work on a tight budget and have got some real bargains off eBay. Unlike some people, I have had no problems with exposure issues using old K mount lenses.
