Yes, we have a thread! :-) Nice shots Tariq, but what\'s with the sky in #4?
Having had the lens for 2 days I am impressed.
Samyang wideopen on a 5DMkII (handheld). Here\'s a dead apple tree.
The grass in the background which is blurred seems to be brighter and more yellowish green than what I would expect. This is what I was mentioning in the other thread. I have seen this in the sigma 50/1.4 in shots where there are backlit tree leaves blurred in the background which get rendered a more brighter yellow green.
Hey Wayne, I\'m betting the effect your noticing is the same as the Leica glow/ vignetting I was referring to. It\'s characterized by a central bright hotspot and is most noticeable until the lens is stopped down to F2.8 or so. I\'m not sure that the color saturation is actually increased, just that the colors become brighter due to the hot spot.
