Sigma AF 30mm f/1.4 fullsize D70 jpegs

Fullsize jpegs from the Sigma AF 30mm f/1.4 DC HSM DG, mounted on a Nikon D70.
Please respect my copyright, do not transfer them to other website or try to sell them (not that they are that good anyway). Feel free to download and manipulate them for a personal review of the lens.
779 - 813 are from 29th of July, after 20.30 in the evening (camera clock is on wintertime).
838 - 884 are from 30th of July, in the morning.

All photos were originally NEF's. Jpegs created with Nikon Capture 4.3.
The only editing done was to adjust the exposure to hit the right side of the histogram and sharpening set to normal. All other settings are camera default. Auto whitebalance on all shots, unadjusted. Saved as "Good Quality" jpeg, Nikon sRGB.

Nice work Sander. Makes me want to visit.
Also very helpful to me in evaluating the Sigma 30mm f1.4 and the reputed issue with soft edges. Ha. I see no problem with that .... unless you go out and look for it in the last 20% of the image around the sides. The important part of the photo is the center 50%. Your shot of the boy on the boat gave me comfort that even when the subject is not centered this lens will do very well. I will refer others to this gallery!
