Very nice. Thanks for sharing. Are these handheld or off a tripod? I'm
guessing handheld, since your shooting at ISO 1600. I don't see much
noise here, but I imagine it would show up in an 8x 10 print. You could
probably get away with ISO 800, with just the addition of a monopod.

The sigma 500 APO mf is a new lens for me. Not the sharpest, hard to
focus manually, but it doesn't show any color aberrations and it's
small and lightweight compared to the novoflex bazooka.
Unfortunately the 1.7x AF won't autofocus with this slow big glass.
