Showin off are we?

Well regarding the shot (:P) i don't like the blue reflections on those lenses and the two telephotos look slightly slanting

As a shot, the lighting is harsh. Not sure if it's a composite of three different images, but I'm curious why the text on the Sigma is not as sharp as the other two lenses. The distance each hood is from the bottom of the frame increases from left to right. All lenses seem a bit tilted to the left, but this is more evident in the telephotos. If this is a product shot, then you may want to clone out the blemishes on the hoods.

I have one and like it a lot. Takes very sharp photos in good light. The build quality seems much better than equally priced Canon offerings.

As far as the photo: Looks great to me!

??? what are you looking at it on? Look at the lettering on all the lenses and they are soft at best or OOF at worst. particularly the tallest Sigma one. (Check out the Auto/Manual focus switch)

That one does look considerably more OOF than the other two. Maybe they were not the same distance from the camera.

To me, they seem to have been cut and pasted. The background looks pink on my monitor. The lenses do not line up, and there are many out of focus parts of them. There appear to be blue reflections on my monitor. I am not sure I understand the purpose of the photo, but if it is a comparison product shot I am not sure that it works that well, because the viewer is distracted by aspects of the picture rather than just seeing the lenses. Hope these comments are somewhat helpful if that is what you were looking for.
