This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The left side has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
After neglecting the Sigma for far too long, I've done what I should have done a long while ago and invested in an +8 ND filter. No more blown skies! Also looking forward to getting to the coast and getting some nice seascapes.
Can I ask your preference of macro lens? I am using a 75-300 Macro on my Sony A100 but I find it difficult to get pin sharp focus due to the large focal length and f4.5 aperture.
If you can afford it, the Sigma 150mm has proved to be an excellent lens from the results i've seen (not got one myself, a bit pricey).
The best macro lenses seem to be primes with a fixed focal length, although the macro mode on zooms can also yield good results. Just try and remember to use manual focus and a smaller aperture size (around f11 is good) for increasing the depth of field, and a fas enough shutter speed to reduce camera shake (dont know how effective the antishake is on an alpha?)
Im using an old Tamron SP 90 f2.5 at the moment with a x2 teleconverter on my D40X. Produces pin sharp results, but you have to work for it as everything has to be done manually.
