Yes, this was a Sigma 10-20mm (APS-C>15-30mm) DC lens.
Advice to photographers going to the rim: take two 16oz bottles of cool water, ankle high shoes for the 1.5 mile hike through loose hot sand, sunscreen, and a large brim hat. It is a long hill up on both sides. It is my opinion that this is the most incredible spot on the Colorado River.

The first/original with a Sony a550, jpg from 1.5 feet away, Tamron 28-300 Macro zoom at F22 with Kenko 20 and 36mm extension tubes(6 to this stack). I retook the shot with my Sony a850, jpg, Kenko 20mm Extension tube, Minolta 50mm @ F22, flash 1/160 sec. from 4 inches away (4 to this stack).

Scared,I crawled on my belly to the rim with a camera that fell on concrete at Hoover Dam and took this. Your shot is absolutely stunning.

Depth of accurate focus much improved. I was about to trash this lens because it was considered naturally soft and sluggish on KM 7D. On my Sonys it is totally a different story.

Rudolf, wow, stacking really adds texture to the photo doesn't it?

I used a Tamron 28-300 Macro zoom at F22 with Kenko 20 and 36mm extension tubes. The focal field was about an inch on the flower. Stacking allows control by the number of frames shot. Without, I would be lucky to have half an inch.

I read this procedure in one of David D. Bush's book and gave it a try. Youtube instruction: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=intzev1gsbI
The first shot is composed of six frames and the second one is composed of three.

Lets morph. Since we are upwards of a hundred Sonyanians, lets turn the course of this thread to also include the products of our cameras, tips, and tricks. These are pretty versatile and complex machines. Lets start pushing them to the extremes. Fun is written all over them. Lets put some flowers into this vase.
