all excellent but do you find it massively better than the original considering the price of this version.

thanks for looking . I find it easier to shoot the close ups in woodland Antony than the full on scene,don't have Simon Baxters eye, wish i did. Will have to have a look and find out what that Fungi is David as i have not seen it before. Not sure if that leaf had a waxy coating John but it certainly stood out against the rest. Peter ,i don't know if the look was to do with the lens as i have not really used it much since i bought it a month or so ago as i always found the camera output tended to be towards the cool side of things with the Sigma lenses i normally use.
