My first real test shots with a Sigma 150 macro. Was a little worried that the IQ wouldn't match up with that of my Canon 100/2.8 macro that I recently sold. After the first few shots, it doesn't look like I have anything to worry about. Nice overall feel and quality to the lens, feels good on the 5D, and the IQ is excellent. My first non-Canon keeper.

I believe that the first and third were at f16, the second at f13 (IIRC).

Terrific lens and my only non-Canon lens too.
