    Greetings from BC

    Hi,

    I've recently discovered this site and glad I did. I just purchased a sigma 10-20mm wide angle lens for my Nikon and came across the wide angle lens article here. Interesting articles and forums. I hope to learn a lot from this group.
    I enjoy street photography, black and white and night photography.

    Cheers
    Suz

    Welcome, Suz. Jump right in. No one here bites. Well maybe some of us old farts nip each others' heels once in a while but never draw blood. Overall this is one of the most respectful internet forums I've found. For sure among photography forums it's tops. So enjoy

    Hi Suz,

    You can already see how friendly we all are (thanks to all) and I would like to welcome you too.

    Don't be afraid to ask questions either, as Dan says; we don't bite.

    When I got the Nikon equivalent to your Sigma UWA* lens, I found one of the important things to bear in mind was keeping the camera level (not just left/right, but also up/down at the end of the lens) and I use a hot shoe mounting three-axis level useful for this.

    * Ultra Wide Angle


    You may find this thread helpful (so we can see something from your new lens):
    HELP THREAD: How can I post images here?
    plus you may find the first post in this thread useful:
    How to Get Effective Feedback for your Posted Images

    Out of interest, which Nikon camera do you shoot with?

    All the best, Dave
