Nice! I'm such a Sigma Fanboy. I have a 28-70, and a 70-300 from them.

Few of my first pictures ever taken with an SLR:
Shots were taken with a Digital Rebel XT w/ 50mm f/1.8 lens

The Sigma 150 rocks. I got one a couple months ago, and it hardly leaves my camera.

A few from the first time out with the Sigma 150:

I've always loved macro photography. I can spend hours in my backyard, shooting flowers and bugs. I've even been planting more flowers so I have things to take pictures of!

The Sigma 150mm is a great lens. Sigma makes some really great glass, I've owned the 100-300/4, 150/2.8, the 10-20, and both the 500DG Super and EM-140DG flash units...I've always been a Sigma fan and always will be. Right now I don't have any Sigma stuff but the 30/1.4 I just ordered should be coming in the mail today

Bringing back some old school - I took this picture a while ago with the Sigma 100-300/4 (this is before I started shooting macro). The pic probably looks a bit soft since I didn't know how to properly sharpen back then, but whatever, I think it's pretty good for 300mm

Ok, ONE flower....:

This picture is actually a little soft, dof a little too shallow (i cannot gauge this lens' dof yet and there's no dof preview button on my cam), and the wind was blowing quite strong.

I dunno wth is this, looks like pea...

Here's another set of sample form my second round out there, again, all handheld burst shots (about 3/5 usable), lens set to 1:1 and focus by manually moving lens back and forth, most without flash.


BUGS:

(are they dead? :hmm: )

FLOWERS:

(this is not 1:1)

Controlling dof is extremely tricky without dof preview button, gotta learn to gauge the dof properly hmmm

we have had some absolutely amazing photography these last few pages.

I was gonna quote one photo and express how much I loved it, but then I kept scrolling and wow, too many too reply to.

So excellent job everyone!
