    New toy

    Recieved my new (used) sigma 135-400mm lens this morning and was busting to try it out.
    This lens has a reputation for being soft ,what do you think
    f6.3 1/500 iso 400 @360mm

    I'm Garry . Pentax K5 IIs + Kx, and a bag full of other gear.
    Critique is welcome as is PP with details.
