I made yet another quick trip up to eastern Kyoto's Shogunzuka overlook\nin hopes of a nice<\/span> sunset. Half an hour before sunset it looked promising,\nand in particular Osaka 30<\/span> miles away was clear, and the skyline lit up in\norange.<\/p>\n\n

Today I was using my Sigma “Bigma” 50-500 OS, which I haven't<\/span> used in\nages. I wrote<\/span> about it extensively back when I got<\/span> it (starting here<\/a>). I really<\/span> liked it when I first<\/span> got it, but after some electronic issues<\/a>\nand having it replaced twice, the version I have<\/span> now seems positively mushy\nand blah. But I've been giving it a try<\/span> lately in hopes of finding a spark,<\/span> so I\nwas<\/span> up at the overlook with it and it's massive 10× zoom to 500mm.<\/p>\n\n

I made a quick hand-held seven-shot panorama of the Osaka Skyline at 500mm, ending up with a somewhat<\/span> better result\nthan a similar attempt<\/a> two months ago:<\/p>\n\n
