Av8rdan, Now that the So. Willamette Valley of #Oregon has some decent sunlight, I took my new Sigma 70-300 Macro Zoom out for another test.
These are Currant Flowers (native plant) growing in our front yard.
F/32 at 1/250th, ISO 3200, Canon 6DM2, shutter priority, pattern metering.
Interesting that so far the lens is overexposing everything up close in macro, this was 1 1/3 stops down from what the meter said. Only post processing was a touch of sharpening.
