Testing, 1...2...3...

Well, I sold my walk around workhorse lens, a Sigma 17-70. Great lens but the aperture varied from f2.8 to f4.5 when zooming and it bugged me because I always had to reset my shutter speed. I received my replacement and these are a couple of the test shots of my willing model. I purchased a Sigma 24-60 f2.8 constant aperture. Now I can zoom and know my exposure is not going to change one bit! I fear that I'll miss the 17 to 24mm range but playing around the house it is plenty wide. It is also very sharp and contrasty! Time to go out in the day and do more testing....... :=)
