The front image is a comparison of my new lens and old lens on the same settings from a tripod with a little lighting, it’s an adorable platelet figure from 働く細胞 which is a great cute manga or anime series if you looking for a new one!

I recently got back into photography, I like to take photographs of aircraft overhead, I haven’t been to an airshow yet but I think that would be fun.

Anyhow, I’ve been taking photos with a very old canon 600D my grandfather used to own. I have been using a Tamron 70-300mm f4-5.6 LD Di Lens. But it’s basically dead as the zoom control doesn’t even work but I did manage to take a couple pictures with it!

But what just arrived was a Sigma 70-300mm f4-5.5 DG OS Lens which is a nice small upgrade since it has image stabilisation and a much sharper image possible! So hopefully I can get some nice pictures with it soon! Sadly weather hasn’t been good yet and nothing cool has flown over :(

This is just a upgrade I’m doing so I actually have a usable lens while I save for what a really want, a Sigma 100-400mm f5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary Lens or even a Sigma 150-600mm f5-6.3 Contemporary DG OS HSM Lens.

Hopefully I’ll get some nice pics real soon! Thanks for reading
