Whats with the weird white Halo on the right Cork ?

It happened in Photoshop when I tried to increase the brightness a bit using the Shadows/Highlights dialog. I thought it made the cork stand out a bit more, because the original had such low contrast.

I got the new Sigma 35mm 1.4 recently and just waiting to do my next wedding shoot on the 22nd with it so for now, random imagery with it, all taken at f1.4:

Couple more

Just look at this sharpness on the LCD (M) (click for 100%)

Even pictures of pictures are sharp at 1.4 :)

wow that is tack sharp! Nice and creamy bokeh too ! me jelly!

I got it for ?535 from onestopdigital for anyone interested, obviously no UK warranty as it's imported but "if" it breaks I'll just pay Fixation for repair although I've had no issues with the 85mm 1.4 from from Sigma which was also imported yet :)

It's ?700~ in the UK.

Naw :( Honduras, Central America. importing here costs easily %40 or more because of taxes.

What was the F-Stop and Exposure? Mine turn out..... not that well haha.

f2.5 for 5 secs, ISO 3200; colours were whack (the 28mm for long exposures gets all orange-y... annoying!) so it was adjusted in Lightroom - essentially auto WB, knock down exposure a stop, blacks -100, darks on tone curve -60. It's hard to get stars in focus with no lights to see the focal distance, and with a lens hood as the tripod to prop it up :p

Newest additions from the Sigma 35mm, all f1.4 :D

What a terrible terrible lens! :p. It'll be $1000 in Canada when it's available.... hmmmmm.

Perhaps one of these Santa's will buy me one

    • Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.
    • YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
