One of my favorite lenses

I love this lens. The optics produce sharp images and you are limited only by your imagination. The 8 - 15 x gives a great visual range. lower than about 11 x the lens shade has to be removed because the FOV is approaching 180 degrees.

I am Just starting out , here is the local bridge lit up in its blue LEDs I am working it for the ideal shot and was happy with these for first trial rough ins. About 4 stacked exposures with tungsten WB.

Thanks James amd MG, here is the lens at min 8 x  power or close to it and  max aperture to give a sense of the full range.. These were not focused at 10 x live view - just eyeballing them in the VF.

So very cool, I love the faces of the fans on the 'back' of the player's jersey.
