Description

I have been practicing wider field shots with various camera lenses. I literally pulled this lens out of the attic. Its a Sigma 80-200 f3.5-4 zoom I bought about 35 years ago for a Nikon film camera. I was pleasantly surprised how well it does. I had to stop it down to f5.6 to avoid coma. ISO was set at 400. When I can afford it, I would like to buy a better prime lens, but for now I'm quite happy with this.

Thanks for looking!
