At times it sounds like a sales pitch for the Sigma lens the author
keeps mentioning.

One thing that confuses me was this text about the distance scale:
"A distance scale is provided with ... a depth of field scale marked for
F11, F16 and F22. As a legacy film lens, this is calibrated for the 35mm
full-frame format, and will therefore be somewhat over-optimistic on
APS-C DSLRs."

How can DOF be affected by a cropped sensor?  The lens itself hasn't
changed at all, just the image-recording surface area.
