No need. hey already have the 150-450mm.

From the rules, we can assume that black and white, which are strictly speaking not colours, will be treated as if they were colours?

That is just gorgeous. The layers of the dark water, the light reeds, the dark trees, etc. The tranquility of the scene. The lone guy in his canoe silhouetted against the light background.

Come on, since when can't we just write heck? The whole idea is that it's a euphamism for hell. We're not 5 years old.

Except there is also the crowd that will buy an enthusiast DSLR and just leave it on auto, and then wonder why their photos are hardly any better than before. This might suit them just fine.

A FF lens will work fine on a crop sensor. It's the other way around that problems arise.

It shows that taking the picture is half of it. Knowing how to present that picture for maximum impact, which in this case means a great tight crop, is the other half of it and one that has given your picture enormous impact.

A great action shot and a beautiful tight crop.

This is a beautiful picture but while I assume that the river curves around to the right in the distance it is not really visible.

Great to see such a good looking German Shorthaired Pointer star in a review.

I actually really like the composition of this shot, but the processing of it was not to my taste with those nasty halos.

How is that relevant to a PEN-F review, which has a different sensor?

The Pana is 10mm longer and has a faster aperture at the long end: f/5.6 vs 6.3. But that's not intended to take away from the valid points that daddyo and MikeFL have made. I suppose it's a matter of weighing up what's more important to you.

2mm wider wide angle is handy. As is weather sealing. And you'd have to assume that a more limited zoom range, this 12-60mm will be optically superior to the 14-140mm.

Oh well. Not that I really care, since I neither shoot E-mount nor have any SA-mount lenses.

Actually, scrap that. Sigma has just announced new SA-mount mirrorless cameras: http://photorumors.com/2016/02/23/new-sigma-sd-quattro-mirrorless-cameras-with-foveon-x3-sensor-and-sigma-sa-mount/

@MonoSynth, I have seen some high-quality SA-mount lenses on eBay, such as the 17-50mm f/2.8. Not many of course, but some of those quality lenses do exist, and to date have gone pretty cheap because nobody bought SA-mount cameras.

Prices for those orphaned Sigma-mount lenses on eBay might suddenly go up, now that they are being given a new lease on life.

The specs of the 24-500 appear to be those of the 18-50.

My guess is Photoshop, rather than physically spinning something. Still a cool look though.

Gorgeous.
