Great set Brian, how do you find the OS on the new Sigma? Is it worth having on a macro lens?

George - slightly to my surprise it does seem very useful even at 1:1 for doing natural light shots. I'm getting more success when doing "marginal" shots at low shutter speeds.

Why when I cross my eyes can't I see the soft, out of focus buds and leaf? -?

What are you doing to my mind?! :-x

The brain is very clever and does focus stacking automatically so if bits are in focus in one of the stereo pair but not in the other then you see the in focus ones only.

Are you telling me my brain is infinitely more powerful than Adobe Photoshop? :grin:

Fraid so :). You can do a 2 image focus stack instead of a stereo using the same format/method

Cheers Brian, I use the OS on my Sigma 150-500 all the time and can get away with 1/60th sec @ 500mm end. Framing the subject would be easier with a steady image in the viewfinder for macro work so I may well ask Santa for one this year.
