sskoutas Offline Image Upload: Off Aninga, Egrets, Cormy & more (10) OUT-STANDING, Socrate! Haven't been here in a while, and what a treat it is to open up one of your posts and see these beautiful images. I really like 6, but that portait number 8, as simple as it is, is perfect.

I'm not sure I could get the 2.8 past the wife Hi Craig, thanks for your comments. Those shots were taken with the 300mm f/2.8 IS. When I bought it I was going to sell the 300mm f/4 but ended up keeping it. The f/4 is a wonderful, sharp lens and it has been my favorite lens for years. I kept it for its close minimum focusing distance and because it is easy to carry. An excellent lens for butterflies, flowers etc. On the other hand the f/2.8 has a faster focus and takes both the 1.4x and 2.0x TCs very well. So it depends on what you are going to use it for, but if you have any doubts about the 300mm f/4 I feel very confortable to tell you to go ahead and get it, you won't be disappointed. A couple of weeks ago I posted some butterfly shots taken mostly with the 300mm f/4. You'll be surprised how sharp that lens is. Socrate May 17, 2008 at 04:20 AM

Chris Willis Offline Image Upload: Off Aninga, Egrets, Cormy & more (10) The gold standard, Socrate, simply excellent shots. I think the flying cattle egret is my favorite, just the combination of such a sharp, detailed shot with such a high degree of difficulty. These are super. Chris May 19, 2008 at 03:46 AM
