Thanks Dave
I use for most part 27mm
Thanks Ronny - that's an interesting length. And since this is a 100-300 thread I might as well post an old CYZ 100-300 macro (back in my Canon days) using a 20mm extension tube. Dave

Sony 100-400 GM vs Contax 100-300 at 200mm @f/8
Out of curiosity, do you recall if your 100-400 sharpened up noticeably when closing down past f/8 in the 200-300mm range? I'm back and forth thinking about buying one. I have rented it twice and both times had copies that were weak in this range outside of the center.

Has anyone tried this lens on Fuji? Looking for a nice zoom of this focal range and not fancying the 100-400 (50% heavier and 50% more expensive used) For only landscape use, so purely whatever aperture is sharpest. Currently using C/Y 28mm 2.8 (could be sharper tbh), 50mm 1.7 and 85mm 2.8 (easily best lens I've ever used take for the flaring)

Yes, the 100-400 GM stopped down does improve at mid and extreme corners at the 200-300mm range.
