Sigma SDQ, 70mm 2.4. Couch.

Rob did those come out of the camera with that narrow in focus band? Its quite remarkable looking, in particular the 1st one.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Pretty much. I increased contrast in the first by about 5% in SPP, which gave it a little punch. It's a very fine lens/camera combo. I'm going to have a lot of fun with it. Cheers, Brian. What lenses do you have for your SDQ now? I'd like a very wide-angle, but won't have the funds until next year.

Rob I have the 30/1.4 it came with and I subsequently purchased a 10-20/3.5.

The 10-20/3.5 is not one of their expensive Art lenses, and therefore the price seems very reasonable. Are you happy with the results you get from it, Brian?

By the way, the narrow band of focus was achieved by focussing on the point where the couch curves quite sharply. I was surprised how well it came out.

I am happy with the 10-20, Rob. Here's an image I shot with it.

Wowzers. Nowt wrong with that, Brian. Definitely worth the cost.
