Hi, here are some shots taken with the Sigma 90/2.8 MF Macro.

This lens is amazing, because of its price(15€) and its IQ.
When I got it, the aperture lever won't move.
After unscrewing the back part, and pulling a little that lever,
everything worked perfectly. Cool

If the links are shown as broken, try to reload, please!
Yet, I'm test my new space.

Cardamine pratensis


Cardamine pratensis






Syringa vulgaris (purple panicle)


Sorry, I don't know the exact names of the flowers & plants.
I just find them beautiful. Wink

Regards
Hasan

Hey Hasan, 15 dollars for a 90mm f/2.8 macro lens??
Man this is really the bargain of the year!!

And yes the IQ seems good and nothing wrong with the bokeh also for what I can see. Congratulations!

The last blooming (purple panicle) is of Syringa vulgaris.
Can't identify the others.

It seems to be a good lens let alone that you've payed only 15 euros. It's definitely beyond its value.

Yes. This lens is recently my favourite.
I also often use it for portraiture.

Here is a link to the lens. It's exactly the same, despite the special adapter.

The only thing I'm concerned is a dent in the filter thread;
So it makes it impossible to use a filter, or the like.
But actually, this is not a real problem Wink

Orio, thanks for the hint on the last one.

Magnificent lens ther first two pics are Cardamine pratensis I think.

The las one is a garden bush with very good smelling flowers but the name escapes me at the moment.

I had older vivitar macro an it was good in macro. But for portrait it was a dissaster a lot of flare in almost every situation. Only at close range I did not have that problem.
