My first shot with the DA*300mm f/4

Really love this lens. Just got it yesterday, so I took it to a wetland area after work. This beaver is my first shot. Love the detail and the focus is so smooth and silent. So happy with it. So much better than the DA 55mm-300mm.

Very nice! Too bad we have to spend so much more than the DA55-300 to get the IQ, isn't it? But it's physics, and when we do, the results are really good!

I haven't gotten close to the beavers since getting my 300mm, I'm jealous.

That's a beautiful shot! So clear and defined. The DA* 300 is just an awesome lens!
