New Toys
About a month ago I bought myself a new lens for the Nikon. Unfortunately for whatever reason I didn’t get a chance to try it out before I went to Barcelona so I was sort of worried about how it was going to perform.
It’s a Sigma 28-300mm MACRO. Anyway, here are the results:
This was taken at the macro end (300mm) of the lens. No photoshop, scanned straight from the negative. And this one:
was at the wide-angle end (28mm). What impresses me here is that there is no vignetting. The kit lens that came with the F75 (A Nikon) has some pretty bad vignetting when I shut it down to 28mm - however the new ‘generic’ lens has absolutely none.
I think this is going to become my new favourite thing.
I need to learn me some better photography skills. I just bought a copy of Lightroom and I absolutely love it, but I feel like an amateur playing with something so nice.

Goodness, the flower is amazing!
I suck at photography, but now I want a new camera!
