Second one is beaut as fuck mate, shame you have to get rid of her! How come?
We just don't use it enough to justify the cost. In the 10 years we've had it we've only gotten 91 hours total drive time, which is pretty low. In the replacement we have a pop-up camper, so I am excited to start using that more. Trading one lifestyle for another! I'll miss the boat, but I welcome the new change.
[QUOTE=BlazeFresh;45304581]Big props for being in a danger zone dude, something i don't think i could do. Really liking the second to last one, although i think it could be slightly brighter in the shadows.[/QUOTE] Thanks man, I'll trying to sort that out on the next batch I'll post.

The first one is killer!
[QUOTE=BoSoZoku;45332592]The first one is killer![/QUOTE] I've just noticed that it's horribly front-focused and I have no idea why I'm always so careful to precisely focus and re-focus if I move or my subject moves even a tiny bit, and yet this happens really often Both of my lenses back-focused when I first got them so I had to use a LOT of AF fine tune until they were exactly right, and then when I go into a different environment and shoot subjects at different distances, it seems to be way off again sometimes but not others, it drives me fucking mad
