Have been a bit wreckless this week and splashed out on 2 new lenses (as in the title).
First up, the Tamron 90mm Di macro. Seems like a great lense and I'm quite new to dedicated macro so here's a first few shots:
A wee snail in the garden. This fella was only about 2cm across.
The obligatory lens cap shot. Lots of noise on this one, and fluff, but I quite like it...
Here's one from the Sigma. Seems pretty sharp but I need to do some more testing. I did some in the house yesterday and it was pretty soft when at 2.8 but have heard most zoom lenses are at 2.8 (not just sigma). Using f4 or above seems good though.
Will try post some more tomorrow. Walked for miles today lugging all my kit and the Sigma weighs a ton. Am knacked, off to land of nod...
