Testing out a new lens. So far, no decision on whether it's worth keeping. I have to go to the forums now to figure out how to get the rest of the lens list in pbase.

Nikon D70 ,Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 EX DG
1/8s f/5.6 at 18.0mm iso800 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Congrats on the lens - there is an option on the page to show all lenses again above where you select the lens the shot was taken with though as you have your lens included I guess you found it {DOH to me!!} Say the lens is good to save jeanne from a life on the street after buying the Nikon!!

Sorry, it was this 18-50 you use that I thought, Mark. We can't get it here yet, will come in November only. The lens is given to be a Nikon lens outperformer. I will buy this one for sure too. the 17-35 - 2.8/4 performs excellent as well.

Wait for the 17-35 2.8 continous to come out mark. The Sigma performs better then the Nikon as it seems and is cheeper, somewhat like a quarter of Nikon's price.

It is quite hard to find the right place for such a shot inside of such a building. Where ever you shoot and what ever the angle is, the shots are real amazing in structure and details. Well seen, Mark.

I always walk around in these kinds of buildings with my head tipped way back and I'm ogling the architecture; thanks for the look...

Cool shot! And LOL @ Jeanne! Hey Mark, how come you didn't get the Nikon 12-24? It seemed like you enjoyed that focal length when you had it before....

This is with the Sigma?? I need to know! TOny said I could have it for my birthday....IF you gave it a good review. If you think it's crap, I'm getting the Nikon 17-55!!! (say it's crap, I want the Nikon!! LMAO!!!)
