Great April Fool Joke. On the "other" forum, people did not get it, perhaps the good ol' US of A don't get irony.

The stofen is a good tight fit. You would have to do a hard knock on the flash for it to come off. Good piece of kit.

Lovely, I can tell you are going to get on just fine with it.
Indeed I am. Nice sharp images OOC and so small. The above was with my K-01. It is probably the first zoom that lends itself to the brick (apart from the FE of course)

It is a tough choice Ray, I have both, had the same question many years ago before I bought the Siggy. At the time I bought the Siggy and had a lot of fun with it, but then it just sat on the shelf for a long time. Then I did start to use it more again.
Needless to say, since I bought the FE, at the moment I am having a lot more fun with it.
I suppose the Siggy is more serious the FE more fun. If you can afford to have both, then have both. If not, and it is between the Siggy and the FE, personally I would choose the FE, as the effects are more dramatic, the Siggy you will have to work hard PP to get the straight lines vertical whereas the FE it just does not matter.

I love both, but the FE at the moment is for me.

Cracking shots, both of them. I am a sucker for Steam loco photographs.

Having just purchased the SMC-F 35-70mm from MattyH today, I had to take a shot on the way back home. So as the light was getting quite nice, I stopped and took this.

Lovely shot Ray. I know the spot, but only had the Sigma 10-20 at the time. Next time I am back there I will be taking the fisheye

Pleasure doing business with you mate. Even had a play with the 35-70 on the way back home.

As for that other lens, you know you want one.......
