Here's some from a strange looking pea-green Sigma MF 400mm f/5.6 lens. It's a very nice size for carrying around and not too dark for a 400mm prime I think - f/5.6.
1/125s, ISO500, F/5.6, Dec. 20th, 5:30 in the evening. GH1
1/160s, ISO1600, Mid August at 4:30pm, GH1, This is using a crappy 67mm(ø) close-up filter I have left over from my video daze.

Couple of years ago,wanted to see if I could actually focus with the standard viewfinder screen in the 50D at far distances...
