Well I'm the luckiest person on the planet as I managed to get a bigma from my lovely GF as an early xmas present. Here are some results from the first day and a bit with the lens.

You are lucky to have such an understanding GF ;)

Nice shots by the way....where is this? Was the lens handheld?

Yes, very lucky. She is into photography too so that helps. These were taken at or near the Onkaparinga, old noarlunga. Hand held, still waiting for my monopod and head to be delivered.

Congrats on your gift and enjoy your holidays :)

Ady good start with the new lens, were these taken near the road bridge? or were you further down near the crossing bridge to southport SLSC

Thanks Big V. I took one of the hiking trails right along and around the river, starting from river road closer up to the Old noarlunga area.

My GF was going to give one too, but my wife put her foot down and wouldn't allow it :lol:

Seriously though, looks like it will be very versatile. Very Nice :D
