Nice set Gary. I'm not seeing as much feather detail as I do in your 100-400mm images.

Interesting that you would say that Morris. By all accounts the 150-600 is supposed to be a fairly substantial upgrade to the 100-400. That wasn't my experience. These shots were from last year when I had purchased the lens from MPB. After going out a few times I ended up returning it because I felt it had some issues. Mostly regarding AF. Glad I held onto my 100-400. I think I've got a pretty good copy of that lens. And that's not a knock on MPB. I've bought plenty of lenses from them over the years, including the 100-400, and have had very good luck.

I've been very happy with MPB as well both selling and purchasing. Reasonable offers when I sell and they have even upgraded my reported condition. Purchases have all been at a reasonable price and the product condition was as described. I've never tried the OM 150-600mm though I have the 100-400mm and it's a good lens though not as good as the 300mm f4 or 50-200mm f2.8 both of which are super never mind the 150-400mm f/4.5 TC which is an absolute delight though at it's weight and price you might as well stay with your Nikon gear.

Last one should make a nice large print
I read Morris's comments, if you were shooting at 600 you certainly have less DOF than at 400, as I have learned then again at 800!
The look of these images is wonderful Gary, great feel in your processing/presentation.
