picked up an old sigma wide "macro" (1:3) but. its aperture seems to be chosen randomly some of time. turns out this was a known issue on early models and sigma would repair them. this lens is from 2000 and looks basically untouched, so it's probably one of the faulty ones that never got turned in for the fix. i'll try calling sigma tomorrow and see if they'll do the fix on a 20+ year old lens lol. I doubt it but hey it might save me from returning it x . x
update: i returned it just fine 👍
anyway, subject is the same assassin bug on the same plant from last time, but no crop! wowee! BUG!
i have cleared backlog up to image 9X9P2019... out of (as of posting) 4006*. yeah. yeah. YEAH.
*many interim images are things i've already edited, and the majority of photos i take are not keepers
can only see these images tagged to edit for so many months before i either gotta just edit or decide its not really worth editing
just put a piece of paper on top of the scanner and boom it fixes the light angle problem. still gotta remove the lights from the scanning head though it washes out the image .. and maybe gotta look into writing custom scanner firmware to actually control exposure cuz once those clouds went away i was just getting pure white captures (oh wait i could just make an aperture for the lens. lollll). this shot turned out nice though
