What have you bought recently?

I'm waiting for this newly released Sigma zoom lens to become available for Sony mirrorless APS-c e-mount cameras like my a6700. A 17mm to 40mm zoom is equivalent to 25mm to 60mm full frame. I own 3 expensive, sharp, prime lenses plus a mediocre 19mm prime and a mediocre 16 to 50mm kit zoom, I wish to replace because I create highly detailed large images that I'll exhibit on large 8k pc monitor displays when they become available. I'll have to do some testing, but it may also replace my superb 30mm DC DN prime.

The above lens is being expensively priced at $919. In the past, for DSLRs, fixed primed lenses have nearly always had higher optical resolution and fidelity versus zoom lenses. But recent lens testing shows this carefully computer designed lens, incredibly breaks that limitation at all its focal lengths.

We hit Aldi as soon as it opened this morning. Still no mums:mad: and no discounted meat, either. Can't check tomorrow because DGD has pre-op appointments for her surgeries next week. By the time we get to Aldi again, they will have had mums, and they'll all be gone:cry:

My Pickup got very expensive in August. A new battery, new set of tires, and front end alignment all combined to do major damage to my check book.
Llynn at the beginning of the year I bught new brakes, 4 new Tyres, new suspension, new front grill, new exhaust ... in July another driver crashed into my car, and wrote it off... ..it cost me more in repairs and labour than the insurance paid for the whole car after the accident ...:cautious:
