But I am a little upset with you for tempting me to buy a CY 10-300 for a 3rd time, for my dog of course
Haha... sry for that but as you sad.. it not a easy lens to use.. maybe it a bit more forgiven on A7II 24MP ( handheld ) ?
I like it !! but I have not really agreed with it yet .it is sensitive to focus,.does not take much to miss completely
Also a bit difficult to see in the viewfinder if it is in focus or not .. . also, even at magnification
Sry for a bit boring pictures ( hoppfully I just warm it up for coming trips )

Thanks for looking.

A few more of my friend. Sony A7II + Canon FL 55mm f/1.2. I think I need to calm down again on the vignetting, but overall pretty happy with how these turned out.

Were those shot wide open, or slightly closed aperture?

Thank you!
Most I've posted were shot at f/2. Embarrassingly I accidently had my adapter on "A" mode for a while so quite a few were wide open, and I tend not to like the haziness that occurs at f/1.2. I'd say 80% of my shots with this lens are at f/2, then about 10% are at f/8, 5% at f/4, and 5% wide open when I accidently bump the adapter
