Interesting shot.  I am wondering about the vegetatio in the background.  Could you post one shot that shows the background in best exposure.  I would like to see how it compares. Regardless, it is ...

On your home page (thumbs), do you have your "View" tab options set to show X3I files? Do you have a copy of my SFD Primer.  If not PM me your email and I will send you one.  It is well worth it. ...

I appreciate your taking the time to post both facts and speculation.  Heck..the world runs on belief systems which is essentially  a  lot of speculation. Example:  Scott has the hots for that cute ...

Some good imput from others.  A lot of the issues are hidden with downsizing it appears.

There are no lens rental places on the Big Island.  Take what you plan to use.  If you are intrested in a list of recommended photo sites (word doc), PM me and I will send them (to your email).  I ...

A nice presentation of a time seeminly gone by but that still exists in may places.

OK: Based on your "profile" of yourself: You will hate Lightroom IMO. The catalog is a pain. Although I haven't used Elements, that is probably your best bet as it is (supposedly), easier to use ...

Nice shots, great color.

Thanks Peter - some really well-done images. Rick

Hi Midge and welcome to the Sigma Forum. I would install the latest firmware 2.02 although that should not matter.  Given the variety of cards you have tried, it sounds like a tolerance error in ...

Sorry about the delay.  I don't use a physical dehaze filter so I don't know.  It was especailly terrible that day.

I don't have lightroom installed at the moment. I did send the them to a friend who uses dehaze via Lightroom and he compared them and said that the Affinity dehaze was better. Still to me, there ...

The bokeh looks great (2nd sample). I expected Sigma would put out the same model upgraded to "A" as  from the number of people I have talked with, and from my personal use,  the old one is ...

Aaaah memories...VW Vans, Bikes and (current) 90 Jeep Wrangler.  Drove my Van across North Africa in 1969 (via Sicily) ...Probably wouldn't make it alive back then.

Nice wheels...You should do some old restored cars.

Yes I have "opted" for a 70-200 f4 to no avail.  Canon's does very well.
